| 61 | David and Jane Conyngham Campbell had four children. William married Mary Ellison, and was prominent in the Indian and Revolutionary wars. His two brothers-in-law, Captain William Ellison, who married Mary Campbell, and Major John Morrison, who married Martha Campbell, were also patriotic defenders of their liberty in the same war. David, the subject of this sketch, was the youngest child. He was born in Augusta County, Virginia, August, 1753. Three months previous to his birth his father died, and his mother died when he was but six years of age. His brother William, being the eldest, according to the old English common law which was in force at that time, inherited the whole of his father's property, which consisted entirely of landed estates and slaves, so young David was forced to depend upon his own resources very early in life, and bravely he solved the problem of making his living. He had accumulated some means by the time he was twenty years of age, which he invested in a small farm in Washington County, Virginia, to which he moved. This was near Abingdon. Soon after settling on his farm he met his cousin, Margaret Campbell (daughter of his mother's half sister, Mary Hamilton, and David Campbell, a distant relation).

| 65 | David Campbell (called "Black David," because of his dark hair, eyes and complexion, and to, distinguish him from his cousin, "White David" Campbell, who was very fair, with yellow hair and blue eyes) was born about 1710. He married Jane Conyngham, a half-sister of Mary Hamilton (White David Campbell's wife). David Campbell and his wife, Jane Conyngham, came from Ireland with their parents. They settled in the Colony of Virginia, it is thought, first in Culpepper County. Later, they removed to Augusta County, Virginia, which was at that time a frontier settlement. To this section of Virginia had emigrated a large number of Scotch-Irish, a brave, independent, liberty-loving race of people, who were faithful friends and the best of citizens. They gave to our country many of her greatest men. David Campbell, born in 1710, died in November, 1753, and Jane Conyngham, his wife, died in August, 1759.

| 86 | GOVERNOR WILLIAM B. CAMPBELL William B. Campbell was born in Sumner County, on Mansker's Creek, February 1, 1807; was reared on a farm; completed his education at Abingdon, Va., under his uncle, Governor David B. Campbell, with whom he studied law; commenced practice at Carthage in 1829. In 1831 was elected by the Legislature Attorney General for the Fifth District. He resigned the same year and moved to Sparta; returned to Carthage in 1835 and was elected a member of the Legislature. He married Miss Fannie I. Owen. In 1836 he was elected Captain of a company for the Creek War. During the seven months he was in command of his company he fully sustained the reputation for courage and skill of his distinguished ancestors and other members of the Campbell family at King’s Mountain and elsewhere. In 1837 he defeated William Trousdale for Congress, and again defeated him in 1839; re-elected in 1841 without opposition, and at the end of his term retired tc private life and the practice of law. Soon afterwards he was made Major General of militia. When the war with Mexico began he was elected Colonel of the First Tennessee. In that war he won distinction, as did his regiment at Monterey, Vera Cruz, Cerro Gordo and other engagements. The regiment was called the “Bloody First,” and well it merited the title. Soon after the return of the troops from Mexico Colonel Campbell was by unanimous vote elected to succeed Judge Abram Caruthers as Circuit Judge. In 1851 he was nominated by acclamation as the Whig candidate for Governor. In this election he was again opposed by William Trousdale, and again defeated him. At the end of his term he refused renomination. In 1853 he moved from Carthage to Lebanon and accepted the presidency of the Bank of Middle Tennessee. In 1861 he canvassed the State in opposition to secession. On July 23, 1862, he was commissioned a Brigadier General in the Union Army, which office he resigned two months later. In 1865 he was elected to Congress, but was not permitted to take his seat until in June, 1866. He died at Lebanon August 19, 1867. For two centuries the Campbell family has been prominent in Virginia and Tennessee. They participated in the early Indian wars, the French and Indian war, Dunmore's war, and in the Revolution. In the battle of King's Mountain were eight members of the family, one of whom was the commander-in-chief. In the War of 1812, in the Mexican War, and in the Civil War they were conspicuous for their bravery. Governor Campbell left seven children. The eldest, William B., died unmarried just after leaving college. The eldest daughter Mary O., married D. C. Kelly. They left one son, David C. Kelly, who married Jane Cowan of Hendersonville, Sumner County. The second daughter, Margaret H. Campbell, married James S. Pilcher, an attorney at law, practicing at Nashville. They have three children: Stuart, Campbell and Frances Pilcher. The third daughter, Fannie A. Campbell, married J. M. Bonner, a Nashville lawyer; they have three children: Campbell, Moses and Mary Bonner. The three living sons of Governor Campbell are: Joseph A., who married Alice Hall; they have three daughters, Frances, Mary and Jessie B. Campbell. They live near Lebanon, at “Campbells,” the old homestead that has been in the family for many years. Owen Campbell married Susie Towson. They live on a farm four miles from Lebanon. The youngest child of Governor Campbell – Lemuel R. Campbell – married Johnnie Marshall. They have three sons: William B., Matthew M. and Russell Campbell. Lemuel R. Campbell is a lawyer, practicing in Nashville, but resides on his farm, four miles from the city. source: Cisco, Jay Guy.

| 93 | JAMES CAMPBELL, born 1756; died, June 10th, 1781. Married: probably 1779, Margaret McMichael; died Sept. 7th, 1825, buried at Carlisle, Pa. After James Campbell's death his widow married 1st, Aug. 19th, 1782, Lambert VanDyke, son of Henry and Elizabeth (Davis) VanDyke of Buffalo Valley. The service was performed by Rev. John Elder of Paxtang Church. By her second husband Margaret (McMichael) Campbell had six sons all of whom married and whose progeny are scattered well over the United States. Dr. Henry VanDyke is perhaps the most widely known of her descendants. In the genealogy of George Douglas VanDyke of Milwaukee. Wis., Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol. 1, p. 256, mention of Margaret McMichael's first marriage to James Campbell is omitted by mistake. The present writer called Mr. George VanDyke's attention to the fact and in his letter of reply he expressed his regret and stated that he would have the error rectified in any future edition of the work. After the death of Lambert VanDyke, his widow married a third husband in 1795, Benjamin Thompson of Carlisle, Pa. James Campbell was a soldier of the Revolution and died at the early age of twenty-five, from wounds received in battle. Family tradition says that he was an officer. A James Campbell was ensign in the Officers Seventh Battalion, Col. John Boyd, 1777. The name appears many times on Pennsylvania Revolutionary rolls with no means of identification beyond the counties from which the men enlisted. After having searched printed records in vain for a notice of James Campbell's death, the writer made a trip to Derry graveyard and discovered that several mistakes had been made in copying the inscriptions for publication. Three inscriptions of different James Campbells were found to be incorrect in Mr. Egle's compilation of them. In one case he has the date of death as Aug. 20th, 1734, and the age as 78, whereas on the tombstone it is May 20th, and the age 75 years. I found a small stone inscribed “In memory of James Campbell, who departed this life June 10th, 1781, aged twenty-five years.” Egle had given the date as June 10th, 1783, ten months after James Campbell's widow had married her second husband. As his parents were married in 1755, and we from the statement of his daughter that he did not die until she was about a year old, this date on the tombstone fits in exactly with facts we know, and beyond question the grave of our James.

Married: 1st, . . . . . . . . 2d, Agnes . . . . . . . ., born, 1707; died, April d, 1757; buried beside her husband. 3d, Mrs. Rosanna Vernon, a widow with at least two children March 2d, 1737, James Campbell is on a list of warrantees of land in Derry Twp. for 300 acres. On the same date 279 acres of land in Derry Twp. were “surveyed to” James Campbell. Egle's History of Dauphin County, Pa., p. 39: James and John Campbell were among the signers of a “humble petition of the inhabitants of the townships of Paxtang, Derry and Hanover, Lancaster County,” to the Governor of the Province, dated July 22d, 1754, showing “that your petitioners being settled on or near the river Susquehanna apprehend themselves in great danger from the French and French Indians. . . . We, your petitioners therefore humbly pray that your Honour would take our distressed condition into consideration and make such provision for us as may prevent ourselves and families from being destroyed and ruined by such a cruel enemy.” This was during the French and Indian War and old documents show that murders and scalpings by the Indians were of almost daily occurrence in 1756 and 1757, and had it not been for the bravery and military ability of Rev. John Elder the “Fighting Parson,” Captain of the Paxton Rangers and later Colonel under the provincial Government, the terrorized inhabitants in all likelihood would have fled the frontier. James Campbell was survived by his wife Rosanna, and in his will mentioned his step-daughter Jean Edmundson; James Vernon, son of his step-son Harry Vernon; Robert Cross's children; sister Martha Cary, then in Ireland; sister Elizabeth Long, then in Ireland; his sons John and Patrick; and James Campbell, son of his son Patrick. Rev. John Roan was witness to the will. James Campbell is buried in old Derry churchyard and the inscription on his tombstone has been published numerous times as an example of the lugubrious in epitaphs. It cannot be omitted here. “Under this stone lies entombed James Campbell's Dust you see Who was as healthy and as strong As many that may be But now by Death whom all devours Is laid upon this cell With crawling worms and reptiles base He is obliged to dwell. You that these lines do look upon May also call to mind That Death will be your certain fate Therefore improve your time.” Children: Patrick, John, and others. source: Douglas, Bessie P.

| 98 | John Campbell came from Ireland to America in 1726, with five or six grown sons and several daughters, and settled first in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. Six or eight years afterwards he removed to that part of Orange county, Virginia, which, in 1738, became Augusta county, where many of his numerous descendants lived for many years. Three of John Campbell's sons came with him to Augusta, viz: Patrick, Robert and David. source: Waddell, Joseph Addison. Annals of Augusta County, Virginia, from 1726 to 1871, 2nd Edition.

| 100 | JOHN CAMPBELL, born, 1656 in Ireland; died, Feb 20th, 1734 in Derry, Pa.; buried in the old Derry churchyard. John Campbell is said to have come from Ireland in 1726 with several grown sons (see children below). He settled in Lancaster Co., Pa where he lived until his death. (Egle.) In the “Virginia Historical Magazine,” Vol. 7, p. 126, it is stated that John Campbell came from Ireland to America in 1726 with five or six grown sons, settled first in Lancaster Co., Pa., and came in 1738 to that part of Orange Co., Va., which is now Augusta Co., with his sons Patrick, Robert and David. One would infer that this John must be identical with Mr. Egle's John. It is unlikely that two John Campbells with several grown sons, bearing the same names, would have come to America in the same year. Patrick, Robert, and David, sons of Mr. Egle's John, did move to Virginia, but the father John, buried in Pennsylvania in 1734, certainly did not. The removal of Patrick, Robert and David, to Virginia, as well as known records of their descendants, eliminates them as ancestors of our line, all of whom lived at or near Derry until 1800. The fifth son, John, an Episcopal clergyman at York, Pa., whose records are fairly complete is also eliminated, which leaves but James of Derry as our undoubted ancestor. Children: Robert, lived in Virginia and had five children. David, moved to Orange Co., Va., in 1741; married Margaret Hamilton. James, born, 1689, in Ireland. Patrick, born 1690, in Ireland, moved to Orange Co., Va., about 1740. John, born, 1692, in Ireland; died, 1764, at York, Pa. An Episcopal Clergyman. source: Douglas, Bessie P.
