    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Campbell, McCloud Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Yl.2ADE/1052.1639 Message Board Post: This good bio. of Andrew Wilson Campbell is a little incorrect on his death. He got sick as a result of herding-fording the cattle of his wagon train across the Green River, Wyoming on July 3, 1853. He and daughter Mary laid by about 12 days and traveled on with other wagon trains for about eight days, He died on July 22, 1853 at well-known Peg Leg Smith's trading post on the Bear River at what is now Dingle, Idaho as a result of the difficult ascent over and descent down Big Hill on a hot day. He was buried there on July 23, 1853 in an unmarked grave as were so many other trail pioneers.
