Hi, The Campbell's left very dim tracks in Erath Couty I knew. I searched H. Grady Perry's Grand Ole Erath, and Marilyn Ewer's PTA project on a history of the Three Way Schoiol District (Marable. (Greasy), Chalk Mountain, Pony Creek, Mitchell Creek, Crockett, Johnsville, Oden or Odom Chapel(North of Walnut Springs) Pizarro, Skipper's Gap, Maratheals Gap, & neighboring areas and did not find the name. have a Cedar Point Centenial book done in blue ditto or Hectograph Jelly pan. Will chack it if a Zerox will darken it and make it readable. Now for better news. I remember one set of Campbells- one rancher, a Campbell, married a Morgan girl from the Morgan ranch between Walnut Springs, Morgan, and Brazos Point- Eulogy- 5 oaks- Goatneck area. Brazos Point and 5 oaks were separated by the Brazos River which was- and is- crossed on a cable suspension bridge- a country version of the one at in Waco. The Roeblings built the Waco bridge then the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. Another like the Brazos Point bridge was at Brazos and Tintop, where the national Motorcycle riverbottom run from Mineral Wells ended. A similar bridge is on Bob Phillip's 8 Country Reporter- I think it is between Knox City and Benjamin. - Cobb Ranch country. J.P. Morgan, of Morgan & Louisana Railroad & Steamship lines established Morgan, Texas. His son or brother controlled the land and Squire Morgan, my neighbor in Walnut Springs owned a home, did gardening, wrote poetry, and did farm labor. The ranch in 1960's was called the Morgan- Campbell Ranch This is in Bosque County. There should be Campbell family records for 2 to 4 generations in the Meridian courthouse. Oh, yes, there was a front page article in Waco Tribune Herald about the School Supt. Bateman of Meridian contacting the Bosque County sheriff to drive a school bus- he could not find licensed drivers. The sheriff took the job , partly to make a positive impression on the students. The county outside Clifton is as sparsely settled as some High plains Counties. If these Campbells were on an Iredell (Bosque County) mail route or Hico (Hamilton County) mail Route, they may have lived in Black Stump Valley area of Erarh County, Duffau or Three Way Area of Erath County, or Hamilton County. It is also possible these Campbells lived across the Brazos in Johnson ( Cleburne) or Somerville Co. (Glen Rose) or Hill County ( Blum- Whitney) areas before the Morgan- Campbell marriage. During the prohibition days, if one left $5.00 in a hollow oak tree in designated areas on the crooked & dangerous (Quicksand) Brazos River, guess what was in a mason jar in the tree when you returned ? The big boys told me- Alcohol and other paint removers were never part of my beverage survival requirements. Happy Hunting- Hope this helps.
