Dear Marge, James, Ambrose, Dorcas, Wiley and Melinda are all names I have seen in my various Campbell families of Amherst and Nelson Co VA. They are common names, so there is a possiblitity that is pure coincidence and nothing more. Did anyone ever tell you about these names, and their counter-parts in Amherst Co VA? I don't want to bore you with details you already have, but at the same time I hate to miss telling you about something which might be new info for you. If you need me to, I will go thru my files, and tell you every person in the Campbell group of Nelson-Amherst Co VA who had these same names, in case it sheds light.
