Hi Sylvia and Lily - I have to jump in here because this is my line as well. I descend down from Francis and Isabel Campbell Joel and Nancy Coffey Campbell Reuben Lee Campbell William Frank Campbell Minnie Beatrice Campbell Lowery Sarah Virginia Lowery Palmer And me Hilda Palmer Austin There is a living male Campbell - Earl Campbell that is the son of Richard Campbell son of Oscar Parker Campbell son of (also brother to Ellis that is Sylvia's line) Edmond Joshua Campbell son of Francis son of Francis Since my direct male stops with my Great Grandfather William Frank Campbell, I have often thought of going and asking if we could get a sample from Earl Campbell that still lives on Campbell's Mountain in Nelson County. Up for this adventure, Sylvia? Maybe we could then connect them with the other Campbells that lived nearby there? Are there any others on this list that come down from the Francis & Isabel Campbell line? Another question, does anyone have a picture of Edmond Joshua Campbell - 1822- 1896?

Maybe someone will see a name they connect to, and maybe this way we can FIND a DNA test candidate for your line, which began in Nelson Co VA. These names are not in any order, they are just MALE Campbell names, who do in fact descend for Francis and Isabelle Campbell, of Nelson Co VA. Francis Jefferson Campbell 1820-1903 (m. Sarah A. Grove; m. Catherine Stover, m. Ella Wise Fitzgerald) John F. Campbell 1846-1860 Jacob H. Campbell 1848-1933 (m. Mary E. Coffey) Francis E. Campbell 1848-1931 (m. Sarah Snead) William Campbell 1854- 1944 (m. Sara A. Hite) Rev. Ulysses S. Campbell b. 1869-1955 (m. Alice Falls) George Stratton Campbell 1872-1957 (m. Minnie Etta Coffey) Cecil Campbell 1877-1907 Ottie Bine Campbell 1885-1973 (m. Mildred Salome Nash) Buchanon Campbell , mentioned as alive in 1933 Edmund Joshua William Campbell 1822-1896 (m.

Campbell 1867-1941 Tinsley A. Campbell 1877 Homer Legion Campbell 1880- Charles Palmer Campbell 1857- I am sure this list should have many more names to it, but if you see a name that you are descended from, and you are a MALE named Campbell, and are sure that you do descend from one of these persons here, please go to www.familytreedna.com and check out how you can participate in the Campbell DNA project. Also, please post your information here on the mailing list so that Sylvia and everyone who relates to this line may see your info and get in touch with you, since you are related to the same family line. This above Campbell family is NOT my own Campbell family, I come from George and Caty Campbell who lived in Amherst Co VA.
