Hello all. I just recently (within the past few days) "re-joined" the Campbell Mailing List. However, it seems that the only Campbells being discussed are the Nelson County, Va Campbells. Did I accidently join the wrong Campbell mailing list? Is this list strickly (or predominately) just for the certain Campbell line form Nelson County, VA? My Campbells were mostly from Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio. I have documented my line back to my Great, Great Grandfather Samuel Campbell who was living in Columbiana County Ohio in the 1840 census report. Three of his sons served in the Civil War together with the 3rd Regiment, Company K, Ohio Volunteer Infantry. My great grandfather was Joseph J. Campbell and I have a picture of him in his Civil War uniform when he was promoted to Corpral and a copy of his discharge. I have not been able to find any record of who Samuel Campbell's parents were. Would anyone out there have any info on this Campbell line?

DUNCAN CAMPBELL, was born about 1728 in Scotland. The LDS site says he was born in Glasgow, though this is not confirmed. He died in Moore County, N.C. in February 1832. DUNCAN married CHRISTIAN STEWART September 2, 1770 in Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland. She was born in 1739 in the Parish of Fortingale, Perth, Scotland, and died in Moore County in 1839. Their first child was John Calvin Campbell, baptised September 1, Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland. The little Campbell family came to Moore County, N.C. sometime before 1775. Daughter Catherine was born in 1777, and son, Daniel, was born in 1780 in Moore County. There was probably another daughter, but I have no information. Cornelia Holmes North Carolina
DNA testing is totally painless..unless you like to eat when you first get up... Or brush your teeth.. Those have to wait till you take the little scrapper or cotton swab and scrape or rub the inside of your mouth (cheek) for a minute or so.. We did two swabs in separate vials (guess to have extra if first didn't work). You don't give blood, don't prick a finger, etc.. Absolutely painless.

HOWDY CUZ A T Yeah we are some kinda close kin. That is neat to see it on paper Cuz Wanda HOWDY CUZ SHIRLEY, I found in my notes which are from Vol.II of the Nelson County Heritage Book pg.114, James Campbell Jr. b:abt 1775 and [s/o: James Campbell Sr. and Mary Smith] married in 1824 Va Judith Fitzgerald [d/o: Bartlett Fitzgerald and Maskey Coleman]. I also have in my notes where Betsey Campbell,sister to James W. Campbell, married John Maddox. One of their children was Nancy S. Maddox who married Thomas Massie. One of Nancy and Thomas' children was Delia Massie who married Alfred H. Campbell born about 1830 Nelson County, Va. I do not at this time know the parents of Alfred. Could this be the same Alfred H. Campbell you are speaking about? Cuz, Wanda
Dear A. T. Powell, Jr and all others, I would agree that either of those men, who are alive and are from the ancestry that you have listed here, would be a great candidate for the Campbell DNA project www.familytreedna.com , Kevin Campbell is the group admistrator KevinCamp@aol.com Either one of these men you describe here could set forth the DNA to be matched against for the huge descendant group of George and Caty Campbell, of Amherst Co VA. Concerning the Amherst Co and Nelson Co VA areas, this couple named George and Caty have left a very, very large group of descendants, and it is very important to make sure someone, or several, take the DNA test, because we could possibly match to other tests already taken, and in this way know much more about the parentage and ancestry of George Campbell. Additionally, this test would tell many others out in the Mid West, MO, OH, or KY, AL if their ancestry goes back to George and Caty's group. I hope that someone from our group will take the test and share the results with us, so we can all learn the truth. We are not researchers alone, we are connected thru ancestry to a very big group, by shareing our research we learn from each other.

Hello to Mr. Harris and Shirley Craft, I see that Mr. Harris said he was working off memory, probably somewhere far from his notebooks, so I will just help out here a bit to specifiy the location of the marriage record. James Campbell married Judy Fitzgerald 1-1-1824 at Rockbridge Co VA, this is from the official record index (Reel 37, VA state arcives) Mr. Harris has identified this man as James Campbell, Jr b. 1775 d. 1854. s/o James Campbell Sr and Mary Smith. James Campbell, Jr may have married first to some unknown person. His father lived in 1815 about 16 miles West of Nelson Co VA courthouse. James Campbell, Jr left this area and moved to Madison Co AL about 1820, but later returned and married in 1824 to Judy Fitzgerald, aka Judith, d/o Bartlett and Maskey Fitzgerald. There were no children noted to this couple, but they did raise a 'foster' son, Walter D. Snead, s/o John Fitzgerald and Mary Snead, born out of wedlock. Concerning a James Campbell of Augusta Co VA, the only marriage record I see on the index is to Victoria Laporte 10-19-1795. I have no idea as to the identity of that man, but he is the only James Campbell listed married in Augusta Co VA on Reel 37, 1761-1852. There are marriages which are NOT listed here, and I do not know why the listing is not complete, but in fact there are missed marriages in this index.

Dear Cecil Campbell, and A. T. Powell, Jr and Shirley Craft, and all others, When I did my 41 reports on all the Campbell families that I knew of in Amherst and Nelson Co VA, my report #7 was on William Campbell and Sarah Wright, and that report is in the Campbell-L mailing list archives for anyone to see and read and copy/save. This report here has even more information. The researchers who contributed information to my reports were: Nita Lawhorne (from her Heritage book article), A. T. Powell, Jr, and Joe Ware. Since then, I have learned more from Cecil Campbell as well. Steven Campbell posted on this list not long ago the Rev War file for William, and that also added to my understanding. William Campbell b. 1754 Albemarle Co VA, d. 4-16-1836 Nelson Co. VA. On 6-12-1809 he bought 80 acres on the Piney River in Amherst Co VA. In 1779 he enlisted for a 3 mo. tour of duty for the Rev War, his second tour of duty was under Capt. John Loving, and he was at the surrender of Cornwallis on 10-19-1781. A deed dated 5-19-1828 to his brother John Campbell, identified William Campbell as brother to John, therefor son of Geroge Campbell and Caty. Amherst Deed Book 1827-1852, page 19-20. William Campbell married Sarah Goode on 12-22-1785, by Rev Benjamin Burgy of the Baptist Church, the license was filed at Amherst Co VA. Sarah was d/o Daniel Goode and Phoebe Wright. According to the research of Pat Carter, she recieved notification from the DAR in 2005, that their record for Daniel Goode, now reflects, that he was FIRST married to an UNKNOWN Campbell, they had :William Goode, Campbell Goode, and Benjamin Goode. His SECOND wife was Phoebe Wright, this identification was made by a marriage record of her daughter, in which she signed as mother. Phebe Wright and Daniel Goode's kids are: Elizabeth, Mary Ann, Daniel C., Susanna, Joseph, Sarah (m. William Campbell, and Phebe. The list of children by William Campbell and Sarah Goode. #1. Washington Campbell b. 1810, m 2-14-1831 Nelson Co VA, to Mary Thompson, d/o James Thompson, Sr and Elizabeth Stevens. In the 1860 census Washington Campbell is listed in Nelson Co, VA. #2. Lawson G. Campbell b. 1793, d. 2-21-1868 Amherst Co VA, m. Frances Hudson 8-11-1821 Amherst Co VA, 1860 census listed at Amherst Co VA. #3. Henry Campbell b. 1809, d. 1881, m. Mary Ann Hudson 6-30-1831, Mary Ann Hudson b. 1807, d. 1874, 1860 census listed at Amherst Co VA. #4. William Campbell (Jr.) b. 8-17-1796, I have never found proof of who he married, nor where he is by 1860 census, nor when he died. I had suggested that a possible marriage for him was Nancy Landrum 11-9-1826 Amherst Co VA. This marriage info comes from official courthouse index of marriages, but I do not know if this is the SAME man, or only a man with the same name. So unless someone has real proof that William married Nancy, we probably should not state he married her, only that it is a possible marriage, based on names, dates, and locations. #5. George G. Campbell b. 1803, d/ after 1880 Nelson Co VA (from Cecil Campbell), m. Francis F. Wright, d/o Moses Wright, Jr and Polly Cash. (I am also from the Francis Wright family, my descent is as follows: Francis Benjamin to Moses, Sr. to Jesse to Eady Burcher Wright who married George T. Campbell b. 1824 d. 1856) In the 1860 census George was listed at Amherst Co VA. In my listing of the childrenof Moses Wright, Sr and Elizabeth Ann Whitehead, I have listed that Moses Wright married Nancy Cash and he died in Rockbridge Co VA, but I have no dates listed. You have listed his wife as Polly Cash, Polly and Nancy are 2 different names, so I would want to confirm with some proof or reference as to his wife's true name, or if he was married 2 times. #6. Daniel Campbell b. 1786-1790 range , m. Sophia Mays 10-1-1825 Amherst Co VA, #7. Nancy Campbell b. 12-25-1788 (this date is given in the Rev War Pension file for William Campbell). Who did this Nancy marry? You have listed a HITE as her married name, but which Hite, and do we have some proof ? Nancy Campbell b. 9-1-1794, married 1815 in Nelson Co VA, to Joel Hight (Hite). In a 1835 Deed in Nelson Co VA between Sarah Wright Campbell (widow of Henry Campbell, s/o George and Caty) and her neighbor Mr. Camden, who she is selling some land to. Since the land was part of her recently dead husband's land, she mentions in the deed all of her children, some of their wives, and husbands, because this sale involves their inheritance. Because of the mention of Hight/Hite here in this Deed, I have always felt that Nancy Campbell, who married Joel Hight/Hite was the d/o of Henry Campbell and Sarah Wright, based upon the 1835 Deed filed in Nelson Co VA. I can see no reason why Sarah Wright Campbell would mention anyone else in the deed, other than her own children, and their spouses. Therefor in my mind, Nancy Hite would not be in the family of William Campbell and Sarah Goode, unless someone has reason or proof to show me. #8. Elizabeth Campbell , I have no further info on her. In the Revolutionary War pension file, only 3 children are mentioned for William, they are James, Nancy and William, and it is from that record that I have the exact dates of birth for them. #9. James Campbell b. 10-7-1786, this man and his exact date of birth are listed in the Rev War pension file for William Campbell. I have no other info on this man. Did this man go to Augusta Co VA? What ever happened to this man? I had mentioned this man before to Shirley Craft, because she is looking for a James Campbell of Augusta Co VA. Shirley: have you considered this man in comparison with what you know about your ancestor? Does he seem to fit? Or should we not consider him? I would like to know what your thoughts are.

Thanks! Cousin, Cecil
Marge, Thank you for getting the map started! I added myself and a photo of the next-to-the-oldest of my Campbell relatives. (I don't have a photo of his father). It's interesting to see some of the similarities between your photo of Elis and mine of James Young. Long narrow head, pronounced brow bone, deep-set eyes, straight narrow nose,... The family story goes that James' father was the one that came to the US from Scotland. That as yet Name Unknown Campbell came over with his brother in the mid-1700s. The story then says that the one brother (James father) settled in New Jersey, but the other brother traveled south, settled down and was never heard from again. It would be interesting to see if Elis and James connected somehow. The only unusual name that's used in James' descendants is Artis. It shows up at Artis Campbell and James Artis Campbell. It may have come from a distaff relative's family as well, but I haven't found it outside that line of Campbells yet. Thank you again for starting the mapping effort.

I have a great grandfather who was born in Ireland and moved to the states sometime in the 1830-1840 there about. His name was Daniel Campbell and was a miner while he was alive.

Phyllis and Pat; Yes, I see that Moses Campbell is in the Amherst 1783 head of household census with a family of 10 but James Campbell is likewise in the same census with a household of 6. Unless Pat can clarify the dates and ages, its difficult for me to understand the family of Moses Campbell as he had sons Moses and James as well. Can you help Pat? My James Campbell did marry a Mary or "Polly" - a Smith and I note one of the deeds James and Mary signed she was identify as Polly Campbell. James and Mary would have been born about 1750 as daughter Elizabeth was born in 1774 and James Jr was born in 1775 (confirmed by census). In searching the Moses Campbell connection, I ran into a Patrick Campbell who came into Augusta County (Rockbridge area) very early as I found land purchased by him there about 1750. He filed his will in Rockbridge County in WB1 page 1-20 and identified one son James Campbell. The will is dated 15 July 1777 - a perfect date!! Our James Campbell purchased land in Rockbridge County (Irish Creek) in 1792. Any suggestions?
