Hi Dora, We have gone through our records again and can't see a connection. Our Comstock family was in MO most of the time your Chanberlin Comstock was in AR. If you knew Chamberlin's parents, we might connect. Our William Comstock (earliest) married in 1836 in Ribley Co. MO and the family didn't come to AR until between 1870 and 1800 census records. We can't seem to get William's parents. There was a Thomas and John Comstock in the same area as William and they could be brothers, cousins, etc. We were interested in the Ben Comstock you mentioned at first. Do you know anything more about him? Since Jasper Newton's last name was Campbell, is Ben's last name Campbell too?

Newton Jasper would be in the same generation as William who m. Deliah. (could be Bro or Cousin) This is just to be of any possible help.
