    1. Re: [Campbell] [campbell_kids] Re: Ancestors of this "DNA Family"
    2. To any who are interested. There were 2 Moses Campbells in Bedford County, they were father and son. They are found in Amherst personal property tax records in 1787 as Moses Campbell with sons, Moses, James and Aaron. They appear in Bedford County tax records in 1789. In 2012 an indepth analysis of Moses Campbell was done by Shirley Craft. Her research indicated that Moses Campbell born about 1740 died in Bedford County in 1792. In that same year his son, Moses Campbell married Mary Dooley. This is also supported by research that I performed in Bedford County tax and will records. A note here: Shirley's research also confirms that Lucy who married John Cash was daughter of Moses and Jene Campbell. I have corresponded with Ms. Morrison and offer her family line which was handwritten by her aunt (who lived to be 97). In her message she also states: " I HAVE A PRINTOUT OF DESCENDANTS OF MOSES CAMPBELL B. 1740 D. 1792, MARRIED TO JENE? (1744-1792), WHICH IS THE MOSES CAMPBELL IN OUR FAMILY LINE." So no matter what spin anyone puts on this information, Ms. Morrison clearly states that she is descended from Moses Campbell and Jene, he dying in Bedford County in 1792. So, yes there were 2 Moses Campbells in Bedford County, father and son. Sylvia
