I looked at the 1860 census and found a William M. Campbell born in Illinois with his father Robert born in Penn and his mother Susan born in North Carolina. It says he is 12 not 10 but I would think this would be the family. They are living in Jefferson Twp, Switzerland Co, Indiana.

Hi Diane, many thanks! I think I had seen that- just couldn't accept the fact he gives a different age. I think he must be mine! Now, does anyone know anything about this family? Thanks! Katie in OH.
