Diarmid;

Is there any proof that Mary "Polly" Campbell who married Moses White
is the daughter of a Duncan Campbell and Mary McCoy, or is this merely
speculation? In Burke's Peerage, there is only one D&M and they married
in 1612, obviously to old to be Mary's parents. It also states that
their son Patrick's youngest son John came to america in 1729. I take
this to imply that Patrick had more than one son. Is it possible that
another of his sons is the father of Mary "Polly" Campbell. Patrick
could not have been her father, because he died in 1661 and I beleive
that she was born after that. In a couple of instances, I have seen her
father listed as James Campbell.

Please let me know what you think about this.

Thank you,

Rita F. Silva
