Campbell Cousins I am sending this out in hopes that, this information will get to someone who can help the rest of us poor Campbells of this line, fill in the blanks The Family of John Campbell In the early 1800's John Campbell arrived in Jackson County from Virginia where he was born in about 1779. On May 17, 1819 he married AneyWebster in Madison country in the Alabama Territory and moved to Tennessee shortly thereafter. They then moved back to Alabama and we find them in Madison and Jackson county. We do not know for sure what county they were in, while living in Tenn. but there is a strong indication that they were going back and forth between Madison and Jackson counties in Ala. and Lincoln and Franklin counties in Tenn. John and Aney had 7 children that we know of for sure, but there are thought to be many more and another wife as well. You figure John was 40 yrs old or plus when he married Aney Webster. 1. John R.

Willis had one child with Frances Penelope Simmons: 1. Charles Lee Simmons Bn. 24/Jan/1868 Dd. 13/Jan/1948 The above sons of John Campbell and Aney Webster, if you will notice all named their fist born son (WILLIAM), now if we are going by nameing patturns, then their grandfather and John's father's name is more than likely William. Lets take a look at the Williams in the areas they lived in at the time in Alabama. These are the William Campbells that were in the Lincoln Co., TN, Madison and Jackson Co., AL area. The last William Campbell was a Revolutionary War soldier and did not come to this area, but his wife and some of his children did. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- William B.

Elizabeth is the daughter of the below couple William Campbell and Lydia. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Campbell born ca 1755 in VA He married Lydia (some say her last name was Cartright, no proof) His will was signed on 23 November 1816, 1.

I just abstracted it, and apparently not very good. I will try to go back and zerox off this document. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Campbell, deceased, The amount of monies arising from the sales of....Wiliam Campbell to this date.

I definitely need to go back and redo this. BUT, the name John Campbell was clear. Note: The John Campbell who married Aney Webster: Question: Is the above Shadrick Webster her brother or some relation, it is curious that one of the thought to be sons on John and Aney (Stephen A. Campbell) named one of his sons Shadric Thomas Campbell. Here are some of the Websters and Campells who were in Madison county in the early 1800's: 1809 Madison County, Alabama census----- among those listed are: Edward Webster William Campbell Alexander Campbell John Beason William Campbell Edward Webster-- 3 males under age 21 1 male over age 21 2 females under age 21 1 female over age 21 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1810 Alabama Census Index Edward Webster-permission for land in Madison County, Allreds Creek (this was then in Mississippi terr.) also listed here was John Webster Peter Webster Shadrack Webster-he married Sarah Campbell, a daughter of William and Lydia Campbell of Lincoln County,.TN also Daniel Campbell John Campbell Nelson Campbell--all of these three were listed in Cherokee County.
