Maureen, Don't know exactly where to start. There is a very old Hillsborough in Orange Co, (Chapel Hill) that has historic markers about every fifty feet going down the street. I expect that is the Hillsborough in research. I can't remember Greensboro's name changes but it is possible. My brickwall ancestor, Aeneas Campbell, Sr was born 1730 in ??? and died 1812 in Montgomery Co, MD. in 1757, he was the first sheriff of Loudoun Co, VA. James Hamilton was also in the government and had business dealing with Aeneas Sr. There is lots about both in The Historian's Guide to Loudoun County, Virginia. Loudoun is a ferry ride from Montgomery Co, MD. I have no records of marriages between a Campbell and a Hamilton, at least not until next Saturday when my younger daughter is marrying one. I really haven't looked. Aeneas Sr had a daughter Hester that married Leven Covinton Beall in 1779 in Montgomery Co, NC. Aeneas Jr born 1757 at Raspberry Plains in Leesburg, VA came to Iredell Co NC in 1784. On a present day map, this looks like a long way BUT Aeneas lived very near the county line with present day Davie Co, (then Rowan) which is a small county which borders Forsyth and Yadkin which was also a part of Stokes. Do you have another Aeneas? There was a Milton Campbell that came from Stokes Co to Iredell/Davie area as the postmaster at the County Line Post Office. I think he goes back to an Archibald that is buries in Snow Creek Cemetery in Iredell. Aeneas Sr was a Col in the Maryland Flying Camp. Aeneas Jr was and Ensign. After the was a lot of his military unit moved down here with families in tow that intermarried countless time. There are five Aeneas descendants that have taken the DNA test. We have a marker that is different from the most of the other Campbells, marker 26 has a value of 9. The most of the Campbells have a 11 or 12. Due to the intermarrying of "the Maryland Colony" in Iredell Co, I am related to about all of the group.

Aeneas's family lived in the next county (Surry), but I have not found a connection. Interestingly, John Campbell did move to Surry toward the end of his life. > > As to Hillsborough and Greensboro: It's my understanding (I am in CA, so I apologize if my information is not correct) that Hillsborough, Guilford County, North Carolina later became Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina. In its early Hillsborough incarnation, the city was a hotbed of Regulator activity during the Revolutionary War. Interestingly, John Campbell, born 1775, figured in one of the skirmishes of the war near Hillsborough. > > John Campbell's mother was Mary Hamilton, and when it became clear that members of his Campbell family were unable to care for the boy, Horatio Hamilton, John's uncle, took him in and raised him as a son in Salem (later Winston-Salem), Stokes (later Forsyth) County NC. > > Maureen > > > > ________________________________ > From: Larry <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wed, May 26, 2010 5:41:34 AM > Subject: Re: [Campbell] Campbells in Frederick CO MD, on 1800 cencus > > Maureen, > My ancestor, Aeneas Campbell , was associated with Hamiltons, the > Bealls and came from Maryland to NC. > I have a question about your message.

There are very few Campbells in the area in 1810 and most at least are related. That group seems to have come from Frederick County, MD, based on a deed I found for John Campbell, who was administrator of his father Matthews estate. Matthew is listed as coming from Frederick Co MD. I think the John I can trace to is the SON of the John of that deed. >>>> >>>> Anyway the Campbells are listed as Campbell and Camble and oddly Matthew isn't listed in the 1790 cencus.
