There are DAR patriot indexes at most Main library branches. That is how I found the one for Ellis Campbell. I then sent 10.00 and ordered a copy of the application. It gave me a bit more information, but nothing past Elis R. Campbell. I found his parents through a nice person online who was searching in NJ for a David Campbell. She had compiled a lot of information on Middlesex & Somerset county NJ Campbells and we traded information. I went back tot the libreary & copied the other entries from the patriot index...but haven't run across the page with the notes (yet). From memory there were 5 more besides Gladys Requa Frey... Two were sisters, one with a married name of Cowin. I just about have the files in alpha order, sorta alpha order (LOL)... Any surname starting with a "C" in the C file, etc. Now on to the task of putting each paper in it's correct file. Once I do that I should find the paper with the patriot applications. I haven't gone to see what our library here in Littlefied has, but will. I know Lubbock should have the index, hope so anyhows. There is no reason to buy at random. I will buy the ones that use Ellis R as patriot (maybe his siblings also).

Is it not possible to send and get more than one. Such as the most current and then the next, etc. So as you go backwards from the DAR documentation you would learn who was who. I recently got my documentation from DAR and it was absolutely no help as I still have to trace back 6 generations to even connect with the person in the documentation. However when I called the DAR I was informed to get the most recent application. I'm sure that you could get every application to that particular Patriot that you wanted if you sent them enough money. Give them a call and see. The DAR phone # if I'm not mistaken is on the website. Cathy Pierce margecam52 <margecam52@valornet.com> wrote: There are several other DAR Applications using Ellis R Campbell as the patriot. I was looking for others who may have information on this ancestor. Perhaps by comparing notes from the different applicants, we can figure out where his children ended up.
