CAL & Steve, On the North & South Carolina Campbell's. Quite a bunch of Campbell's were in THE Over the Mountain Boys/Men that were with Col. William Campbell when He kicked RED COAT BUTT at the Battle of Kings Mountain North Carolina 225 years ago, & I am sure that some of them stayed in Carolina & as Kings Mountain is so near the South Carolina Line, They were Very likely in Both States. Check on <Kings Mountain North Carolina> They had the 225 year Celebration abt Two Weeks Ago. Col. William Campbell was from Washington County Va. That is in South West Va, AT Bristol, Va. LUCK CUZ A T & Leona
A.T., Lots of VA.'s were at Guilford Court House, Cow Pens, Eutaw Springs, & French Broad River { on N.C. & TN. Line not far from S.C. ( Greeneville, S.C. ) }, as they were Stationed in these Areas & the Local Citizens fed & sometimes boardered the Soldiers, who met & fell for these Local Girls , & Later after their Service Ended, came back & Married these Local Girls from N.C. / S.C. / Eastern TN., getting Land from their Service Time & Living near People who were good to them During the War, without the Food, Ect., the Soldiers probably wouldn't have Survived, & Defeated the British in an Area Unknown to them without Local Help. So these S.C. / N.C. / Eastern TN. Campbell Lineages, if they can Trace their Ancestory to the Revolutionary War, will want to Know More About VA. Campbell Lineages, & these same Campbell Lineages that are being Hashed Out in this Campbell Site, will be Their Campbell Lineages also, so will be Very Important to them Later, as they Trace their Lineages back to VA. !!!!!!! I Understood that this Campbell Site was to HELP Each Other find their Campbell Ancestors, as the More People Looking, the Better Chance of Finding the Ancestor that We by ourselves cannot Find. A Campbell we Locate in a Court, Ect. Record might not be ours, but be the Missing Link for Some Other Researcher. As the Migration from PA. or Eastern VA. went West, some Families went an Easier Route of Travel, as at Radford, VA. on the Banks of the " New River ", Some went south into what is now Wilks County, N.C. , Some took the " New River " north into W.VA. , but mine went west on into S.W. VA. & from there some went into KY., TN., Ect.. So this not Interested in VA. Lineages, might come back to Haunt you Later in Your Research, as you Later Trace Your Ancestory back to VA., & the Bridges You Burned, you might need the Information they Found & Posted, but You cannot get now that You Need It, without their Help. All I am Trying to Say is, If It Isn't Your N.C. / S.C. Campbell Lineage, do Fly Off The Handle & Send a Responce that You Will Later Regret. LET US ALL WORK TOGETHER & SHARE THE INFORMATION WE FIND, NOT BAD MOUTHING SOMEONE FOR NOT POSTING THE LINEAGE WE ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR, OUR RESEARCH WHEN WE GET TO A CERTAIN POINT, MIGHT CONNECT WITH WHAT IS POSTED, & BE VERY VALUABLE TO US !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
