<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 88142, member: 44&quot;]According to Lucy CAMPBELL Hatch info on her gravesite website,</p><p><a href="http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&amp;GRid=83879550" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&amp;GRid=83879550" rel="nofollow">http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&amp;GRid=83879550</a></p><p><br /></p><p>her parents were Hugh and Marianna Johnson CAMPBELL of Morristown, VT. According to Hugh CAMPBELL&#039;S death certificate, he was born in 1887 in Morristown to John and Viola Small CAMPBELL and died of leukemis in 1953. Does not give cemetery.</p><p><br /></p><p>John CAMPBELL, father of Hugh, was 21 years old (born c1858) when he married Viola Small on 8/7/1879 in Morristown, VT, according to their marriage record. His middle initial was M. His parents were James M. and Emily E. CAMPBELL. He was a farmer in Morristown.</p><p><br /></p><p>James M. CAMPBELL, father of John M., married Emily Thayer on 2/22/1838 in Waitsfield, Vt, according to their marriage record. Darn, it doesn&#039;t have his age or parents name.</p><p><br /></p><p>Found a death record for a James M. CAMPBELL who was a farmer in Waitsfield. This one died March 16, 1875 at the age of 57 yrs, 4 mons. meaning he was born c1818 making him old enough to marry in 1838. No wife&#039;s name is given, in fact no space/line labeled &quot;wife.&quot; Parents are John and Louise CAMPBELL. Fig, you found the Captain&#039;s wife&#039;s name as Lois, Louise and Lois are very close and can easily mis-written. In fact on this death record her name is written with the o and i run together and the e at the end is in parentheses.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can&#039;t spot anything earlier on these folks in the VT birth/marriage/death records. If the John &amp; Louise or Lois are the right ones, they would be Lucy CAMPBELL Hatch&#039;s great-great-great (3x) grandparents, not her 2X great grandparents. The original writing, &quot;great grandfather,&quot; may have been written by her grandparents John &amp; Viola Small CAMPBELL, and the &quot;great&quot; in blue ink added by her parents, Hugh &amp; Marianna Johnson CAMPBELL.</p><p><br /></p><p>The above info was all from the databases on the NEHGS (New England Historic Genealogical Society) website:</p><p><a href="http://www.americanancestors.org/index.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.americanancestors.org/index.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.americanancestors.org/index.aspx</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
