I'm glad there is finally proof of some information that I have thought for a long time was incorrect. Now can someone help me straighten out my William Campbell (1760-1820) and his wife Nancy "Anny" Couch. Who were their parents, grandparents, great grandparents, etc.? I have names and dates, but after this new information everything is in a jumble.
