I looked for Robert and Ruth in Perry Co. yesterday while in Pinckneyville. I could not find anything on them except a marriage when a Robert J. married Ruth A. Atherton September 24, 1852. I found a couple other marriages for a Robert Campbell in 1852, 1883. They were to Sarah Johnson and Sarah Boyd. ----- Original Message ----- From: northbrooks63119@yahoo.com To: ILPERRY-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, December 03, 2005 11:38 AM Subject: [ILPERRY] Re: cemetery lookup This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

I do not reside in IL, so I cannot pinpoint the location any better than that. In the PCHS listings for CAMPBELL family members at that cemetery were... CAMPBELL, JOHM (sic) - no dates shown, but believe he was bn ca 1851/52 per age in census. I have nothing further on him. CAMPBELL, SARAH J (04 JAN 1830)-(22 AUG 1899) CAMPBELL, WM H (14 AUG 1825)-(27 AUG 1896) CAMPBELL, RILEY - no dates shown, but believe he was bn ca 1856/57 per age in census; he d btn 1882 & 1899, as his widow, former Minerva Carrie WAGSTAFF (1859-1957), then married (on/about 25 JAN 1899) John Steele MAXWELL (1849-1926) of my interest. John was a 2nd cou of one of my great-grandmothers. By his first marriage (to Emma A ERNEST), John had four (4) children. By her marriage to Riley CAMPBELL, Minerva had five (5) children. One of John and Emma's sons married one of Riley and Minerva's daughters. >From the union of John and Minerva, one (1) more child was produced, namely George E MAXWELL (09 MAR 1900)-(28 JUN 1988). I have nothing further on George, but do have some info on the others. Children, then, of Minerva, included the following: 1. Sarah Eliz. "Sadie" (CAMPBELL) MAXWELL (1882 KS - 1934 IL), md John "William" MAXWELL, s/o John & Emma; Sadie had two (2) known children, vis -- Sarah May "Sadie" (MAXWELL) WOODSIDE, and Wilma (MAXWELL) COWEN. 2. Wm A CAMPBELL (1884 KS - 1946 IL) md Eliz (n unk); they had at least one child, Wilma, who d at less than 3 yrs of age. 3. Jas R CAMPBELL (1886 KS - post 1919 IL) md Alice (n unk); they had perhaps six (6) children, vis -- Guy, Emaline, Clifford, Mildren, Hazel, and Helen 4. unknown CAMPBELL (d pre-1900) 5. Louis M CAMPBELL (1893 KS - post 1910 IL) marital status unk 6.
