    3. Found it. Item Number: LC83/1/18 Description: Record of cases Further Description: Fiche only Start Date: 08 Feb 1836 End Date: 18 May 1837 It's out of order to the rest of the Lower Court Records, and doesn't mention "Campbell Town" anywhere in the title. Plus they don't seem to have the original on hand, only the microfiche. But that's it. The missing Campbell Town lower court records for the interval between LC83/1/1 and LC83/1/2.
