>Fellow Campbell Researchers,
>I have been trying for the past two years to gain information regarding the
next
>generation in my family research. My greatgrandfather,Colin D. Campbell,was
>born in the state of Illinois on Jan. 07,1861. His parent's were Duncan
Campbell
>and Margaret Ferguson-both of Scotland. With limited information,I can only
>estimate their births to be somewhere between 1820 and 1840. Through my
>research,I have come to learn that these are extremely common
names,resulting
>in many dead ends. I subscribe to Ancestry.com,have visited the LDS family
research facility several times and have inquired through the library of the
Clan
>Campbell Society,of which I am also a member,to no avail. My father,Richard
>Colin Campbell,has stated in the past a belief that our lineage stems from
Argyll
>and are descendants of the Duke of Argyll. I would greatly appreciate any
>assistance.
>Thomas M. Campbell
