TAT kind of Connection That I am Hopeing FOR HERE. THANKS CUZ A T <atpowelljr@aol.com> We do know from DNA test that ole George, Henry, Francis and Moses are all related somehow/someway. If we could get a DNA test from a Lawrence descendent, I feel confident that they all would be confirmed as related. Did they all have Catlett wives? Oral history would suggest that at least Lawrence, Henry, and Francis had Catlett wives but as we all know women/wives were not considered legal subjects that owned land or voted during the colonial days and were basically ignored. There is a lot of evidence that Henrietta was a Catlett. She had a son that was named Catlett and a Grand son as well (Frances Lee had a son he name Alonzo Catlett Campbell). Perhaps Henry’s wife Charity was likewise a Catlett. Their first son John had a grandson that was named Catlett Campbell down in Georgia., That is if John, the elders' son of Henry and Charity moved to Georgia and that is the family we track. Thinking outside the box. BH We do know that Virginia Davis, the author of the Tidewater book on Early Tidewater Virginia Families suspected that George Campbell Senior’s wife Elizabeth was a Catlett but she was unable to prove it. All out women can not be Catletts but at least it seems we are trying to prove so.,.......BH

Death, divorce, and remarriage: While we think of the early New England settlers as very religious, they actually viewed marriage as a civil contract, not a religious contract. Consequently, marriage was a function of the magistrates more than the clergy. There are some examples of couples marrying themselves (Queen et al 200).

Rob; What we do know is that this William Campbell was born in Caroline county about 1720 something and was a son of George Campbell Sr and his wife Elizabeth (suggested Catlett). William married Elizabeth (we believe Gressett) of Caroline county and moved to Amherst County sometime after 1768. They had at least one son named John who settled Williams estate when he died in Amherst county prior to November 1785. It is also possible that they had another son named George that died in the Continental Army prior to November 1784. He would have been younger than his brother John.That’s about all I know.

Hi 1. For your information, the suicide of another distant relation (George, not Charles, SHEFFIELD) was publicised in on newspaper, the Nottingham Daily Express, of Mon 25 Nov 1901 page 8 as follows: "Two strange deaths in Nottingham - On Saturday the Nottingham City Coroner, Mr CL Rother, held inquiries at the Eastcroft into the remarkable circumstances attending the deaths of Charles [sic] Sheffield, of 63, Edwin-street . . . The first was a case of suicide . . . From the evidence adduced . . . it appeared that Sheffield was employed at Messrs. Parker and Booth's factory, and on Thursday he told his wife that he had made a false statement to his employer, and that it had played on his mind. On Friday he did not go to work, and he was inquired for at home. His wife did not know where he was, and on going up to his bedroom found two bottles which had contained laudanum and a letter (which was not read). Mrs Sheffield then went round to his employers, and from enquires which were made Mr Frank Norris, one of the members of the firm, found the deceased at some gardens at Well's-road. His head and shoulders were in a tub of water, and he was standing on a brick. He was quite dead, and the evidence pointed to ! a deliberate case of suicide. Mr Norris stated that the deceased was in charge of the leather department, and he told witness that he had sent out leather without first entering it in the books. He said it was the first time he had done it. A verdict of 'suicide whilst temporarily insane' was returned." That is so sad. Until 1823 suicide was a crime in England and the body was buried at a crossroads with a stake driven through it. After this time most were buried in unconsecrated ground in a churchyard. By an 1882 Act burial could be in consecrated ground but without a religious ceremony so normally no burial entry in parish register. By a 1961 Act suicide was decriminalised and a burial service could be performed. 2. Many thanks to all those who had sent in ideas, but so far there has been no success. Perhaps William CAMPBELL died somewhere other than Sheffield, Yorkshire, England.

Suicides aren't usually publicized, even today. And when you do hear about them, the reasons are seldom mentioned. Extreme illness or severe depression may be involved. People jumped out of windows to their death on Wall Street in 1929. You're unlikely to get a reason. He may have been refused burial in a church burial ground.There may be no recognition of his death anywhere. My son-in-law recently told us of a funeral in Wisconsin -- he knew the man who died, and had heard he'd killed himself. When my s-i-l drove by the church, there was ONE car there and the gravediggers at work -- outside the wall of the regular chuchyard. No mourners. No service. No recognition of the poor man's death. Another family member never heard her grandfather's first name. When we finally tracked him down and found a name, he was shown in a city directory one year and his wife appeared as a widow in the federal census the next year. But no other official records exist anywhere. He just vanished. Suicide? Desertion? Murder? No telling. Good luck with your research, but don't expect too much in official records.
