    3. This was on the Adams County page. I thought I would send it on to the Franklin County page. I know some of you have Campbells. Marie Hi all, I'm new to this list and I'm hoping that someone here can help me out. Charles C. CAMPBELL married Selah CARTER in Natchez, Adams Co. Sep. 1813. I haven't a clue as to how long Charles was in MS before this marriage, but have come across a few CAMPBELL's in the area at a very early time. One Charles CAMPBELL appears on a petition list in 1779, there's also an Ant(h)ony CAMPBELL on the 1818 Tax Rolls and 1820/30 census, also a W.H CAMPBELL in 1820 census. I know there was a Katherine CAMPBELL who married Samuel SWAYZE in 1799. My Charles is living in Franklin Co in 1820 and there are no other CAMPBELL's in that Co. So I'd like to gather info. on all of these CAMPBELL's. I'm curious to know whether or not they are all related to my Charles. Is anyone researching the Adams Co. CAMPBELL's??? If so please contact me.

    2. Marie, While Charles C. Campbell may have been in Franklin County in 1820, he does not appear to be related to Christopher C. Campbell who arrived in Hamburg, MS in the 1840s from SC and was the local doctor, lawyer, and justice of the peace. He was b. in Sumpter, SC in 1818 and d. at Brown's Wells, Copiah Co.,MS in October 1866. Christopher C. Campbell m/1 Mary Louisa Bowen in SC; m/2 Melinda C. Guice in Franklin Co.,MS on 24 May 1848: and m/3 Mary Elizabeth Griffing in Franklin Co.,MS on 8 Nov 1854. I know about these people because of my connection to the Guices and Griffings. Mary Elizabeth Griffing was my ggg grandmother's younger sister. Dr. Campbell is mentioned in the Darden diary and was a witness on lots of papers during his stay in Hamburg, such as the will of Littleton Mundy. The true expert on the Christopher C. Campbell line is Jewel Bragg in AL. If there is any possible connection between these Campbells she would instantly know. However, I understand she may be busy honing her skills as the best interior decorator in the Southeast. Tony Miller
