Cecil, I would really like to know I might find that book. Our direct family line goes back to Abraham and Winnie. Abraham was son of Henry and Jane. This whole (well almost whole) part of the Russell Co.,VA.Campbell Clan descend down from Henry and Jane. There was a Willliam there that we can not find a relationship. I am going from memory and sometimes it is not correct so I will say Henry came to Russell Co.,Va. sometime around 1790. Henry's parents were Abraham and Dorus. Inone of these lines there are some Charles. My grandfather was Charles Robert Campbell. He was born in 1870 in RichlandCo.,Ill. About three years ago I was very active on this site but this is a new e-mail address for me, abcfhist2@yahoo.com. Igavethis line back to Dougal Campbell in Scotland at that time. Looking forward to hearing from you. Beth Familyhstryman@aol.com wrote: Hello Lilly This is the first reply to my question about Charles Campbell & Mary Trotter. We know our Campbell family started out in Virginia about 300 years ago.We have reseached back to our ancesters George & Caty Campbell and come to a stand still.We all need to check all early Campbell settlers in Virginia and maybe surrounding states.The book i refered to is THE CAMPBELL FAMILY by AMERICAN GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE published by HERITAGE PRESS, INC. I ordered this in the mail in 1978 you still may be able to get a copy. Cecil Campbell ============================== View and search Historical Newspapers.
