Cousins when are you & I going to wake up to the FACT THAT because every thing that we see is wrong just because it des not match what we have, SOME of it YES but for sre not AL of what the other poster presented is incorret. Attention cousins,just lets look at ourrecord alngg with so much that we disbelieve> our Campbell family researchers have had <Granny CATTY, around sicce 1723 & have not learned her MaIden Name<???> REALY NOW, that is no reason that many of thee Heriatage book posters are incorrect. i often wonder when our crrent reseachers will ever understand that just beause yor & my information does not match gives a gaurente that either of us has to be wrong<???> Just becausetwo posters have different names does not make either wrong. for instanse< Head of families in Amherst , County Va> Head oF Famiies-VIRGINIA, 1783- Amherst County, VA<There are TWO Duncan Campbell's & three John Campbell"s, What I believe is this; our current researchers are TOO quck to shoot the mesenger; Like me, iDESCEND From one John Campbel from the late 1700TH Centry, ONE John Campbell in the mid 1800th Centry & have a first cousin John Campbell from the last 1/2 of the 20TH CENTRY.

Amen! I don't know how many times I've fought the "Bales McCauley Campbell" vs "Bales McColley Campbell" vs "Matthew Bales Campbell" vs the Bales McColly Campbell" vs the "BM Campbell" fight. It's all the same man...he just justed used different variants of his name at different times in his life. And as for stories, a lot of things "change" in 100 years (heck, some stories change minute to minute). Thanks Cousin! CLL ---- Atpowelljr@aol.com wrote: > In answer to soo much disbelief.
