    3. Cecil, Back in Colonial times there were several Lords Proprietors who were given title by the King of England to vast tracts of land in America. One of these was Lord Granville whose lands lay in the vicinity of the present North Carolina. There is still a Granville County in north-central NC. This may have no bearing on your ancestor, but the name may have caught the fancy of some new mother once long ago.

    1. Reply to Pat Carter, re: George and Margaret
    2. Lilly Martin
    3. Dear Pat, Thanks for shareing this info with us. Looking at my own file for the family of George and Margaret, I will make some comments here which concern the name you mention here in your email, in case it might help us to understand the family better. #1. George Campbell, s/o George and Margaret. Possibly he married Ann DePriest, the sister of John DePriest who married George's sister Ruth. The 2 marriage dates are 11 days apart. If this is true, then 2 siblings of the Campbell family married 2 siblings of the DePriest family. Those were common occurances. I would think we need to find a serious DePriest Family Researcher, and ask if they can throw light on this situation, from their side. #2. John Campbell, s/o George and Margaret. The Argenbright vs. Campbell document calls him "John Campbell of Augusta Co., VA". This identification would mean that he was a resident and tax payer of Augusta Co VA in his adult life, but apparently he died in Greenbrier Co. WV. That means we could search the Augusta Co VA records from basically 1769 onwards, to see how many John Campbell's might be listed in tax rolls, etc. Apparently John named his eldest daughter Hannah, who had married COTTLE, as his executor. I have a death date of 1-25-1803 for John Campbell at Greenbrier Co VA, but that date and location might be refering to this court case. I think Augusta Co VA is the place to search for this man. All of his daughters are accounted for by marriage, except for Mary Campbell, who could be called "Polly", and I still wonder if she is the wife of John Campbell, s/o George and Elizabeth, s/o George and Caty??? This has been a question mark in my files for a long time. If so, then this would be a "George and Margaret" descendant marrying a "George and Caty" descendant, and could tend to point to a relaitionship between the 2 families? #3. Edley Campbell, s/o George and Margaret: I have 3 marriages listed for him. Mary Elliot, Hannah, and Rachel Walker 6-12-1806 Wythe Co VA. Do we need to look over at Wythe Co for his records? His death date is said to be 3-10-1851.

    3. Historical & Background Items of Interest Rockbridge County, VA was formed in 1778 from Augusta and Botetourt Counties. However, the settlement within the bounds of present day Rockbridge began in 1737, in Borden's Grant. The area was then a part of Orange County, VA. Augusta County began keeping records in 1745, and covered what is now many states. In 1770, Botetourt County was formed from Augusta. The present Maury River formed part of the boundary. It was then called North River. Virginia, A Guide to the Old Dominion Lexington, the county seat, was a part of the Borden Grant, acquired in 1739 by Gilbert Campbell, and became a town in 1777.

    1. Isaac Campbell son of Gilbert Campbell
    2. Gloria Jarrell
    3. Capt. John Lyle of Rockbridge" Chapter III In the first battalion was a militia company under the command of Capt. John Lyle. William McCutchan was the lieutenant and Joseph Long, the ensign. Both had served at Point Pleasant with Lyle. The complete roster of the company has never been found, but it is known that among the men in the ranks were William Miller, Joseph Bell, and William Willson. Miller and Wilson were volunteers, but Bell was drafted. The company assembled at Isaac Campbell's well known home on the "Great Road." Campbell had received the property from his father, Gilbert Campbell, by will sixteen years before. The place became the site of the new town of Lexington in 1778. "The Cherokee Expedition," as the movement became known, has been treated in detail by some historians, merely cited by others, and completely ignored by some. The difficulties of equipping the militia with powder and lead, when it was finally assembled, delayed the advance and it was not until the first of October that Christian's army reached the Long Island, on the upper Holston River. Advancing from this point deep into the Indian territory, the army was involved with raiding the Cherokee towns, plundering their fields, and having an occasional skirmish. Chota, where Nancy Ward, the beloved woman of the tribe and a friend of the white man, had her home, was the only Cherokee town not given to the torch. The punitive work was done by Christian with the loss of one soldier, a man named Duncan who was killed in a skirmish, but the loss to the Cherokee was heavy. Upon his return to Long Island, Christian reorganized his little army for further action. Then following instructions, Christian placed Col. Evan Shelby and Major Anthony Bledsoe in com! mand of a detail of six hundred militiamen to remain at Long Island as a vanguard. In a parley with some of the Chiefs, who had come to plead for peace, he informed them that their petition would be granted the following May, but, in the meantime, all hostilities would cease. This closed the expedition and the militia was ordered to return home. The long trek back up the "Great Road," or "Warrior's Path" was made and, in late December, Lyle's company was back home. With the passing of the winter of 1778-79, Captain Lyle was turning his eyes and heart toward new lands. It was time when there was a restlessness among the people and, for some reason, a longing for seeking new homes, Would it be North Carolina, perhaps in the beautiful valley's of the Holston, or the Tennessee, or the French Broad? Or, would it be the bluegrass lands of Kentucky? Apparently, it was difficult for Lyle to decide. James McDowell, a neighbor-boy, son of Judge Samuel McDowell and his wife the for! mer Mary McClung, had enlisted in the Continental Line as a private wh en only sixteen years old; he remained in the service through Yorktown, coming out an ensign. In 1779, after the strain of Valley Forge, he was home on furlough. He and Mary Paxton Lyle, the only daughter of Capt. John Lyle by his first wife, had been childhood sweethearts. Learning that Mary's father was talking of removing to North Carolina, he pressed his courtship--Mary consented to become his wife. The year 1780 was momentous in the Lyle household. The 431 acres of the farm which Captain Lyle had received from his father was divided into two portions. One, the larger portion of 351 acres, was sold to Alexander Campbell and the lesser, being 100 acres, was deeded to James Defrees. Then, on Sept. 21, Mary Paxton Lyle became the bride of James McDowell. Captain Lyle, having decided to migrate to Kentucky, led his family down the "Great Road," then over the "Wilderness Road," through Cumberland Gap into the blue grass country of Kentucky.

    2. patcarter
    3. Hi Lilly, Yes, I have studied George and Margaret because of Archibald. ( I'm still looking for the Archibald who married into the Baker family). I've always said Archibald of the REV War Pension Application could not be the son of Cat / George, as I have seen him identified. and was not born in 1754. I think you have to accept he is the one married to Sarah Cook and born 1763. That's what is in the application. I also think that Margaret's George might be - George Campbell and Anne Depriest Sep 20, 1791 John Depriest, surety. Consent of mother, Anne Depriest Her John might be - CAMPBELL, John--died ca 1802-03 Greenbrier Co., West Virginia, will p 25 January 1803 children: Hannah Jane Sarah Marthe Mary Rebecah - WV Estate Settlements also -- Argenbright vs. Campbell--O. S. 97; N. S. 33--Bill, 1804. Refers to a former suit between the parties in Augusta County, and High Court of Chancery. This is a bill by Augustine Argenbright vs. the heirs of John Campbell of Augusta. Writ to Greenbrier County, 1803, to summon Hanna Campbell, devisee and executrix of John Campbell, Jane Smith and John Handley. Deed by John of Augusta County, 1794. Answer by Hanna Cottle, late Campbell, daughter of John. John Handley married a daughter of John Campbell. Jane Smith was one of John Campbell's daughters. Andrew Campbell married Rebecca, a daughter of John. 1793--January 28th, Andrew Campbell and Rebeccah Campbell This might be EDLEY - On Mar 1, 1796 a deed from William Bush to Odley (Audley) Campbell was proved by George Campbell, Andrew Donelson and John Depriest and ordered recorded. I do think the two family are related, the names are so simular. Pat Patricia Curtis-Carter >> is from the 4th child born, his name is Archibald Campbell.

    2. Earlier I asked for a cemetary lookup on Julia. I just went to Find-a-Grave (great resource...don't know why I haven't looked there for her before...I've used it a good bit...duh) anyhow, confirmed that she and Zedekiah (Z.K in listing) are indeed buried at Tallasahatchie Cemetary in Talledega County, AL.

Think Julia buried in Tallaseehatchie Baptist Church Cemetary in Talledega (can anyone do a lookup?). Not sure about Zed. They lived in Clay County, AL at one time. She is my great-great grandmother. I have Zed's history, but what I just listed is all I have on Julia. Hoping to find a cousin or two, Laura Argo Higginbotham Pleasant Grove, AL
