I'm afraid that there are between 15 and 20 Alexander Campbells in the
list - too many to transcribe, with all their families. If you have a
possible location, or name of a parent, perhaps that would narrow it down
enough.

Sorry I cannot be of more help

Sarah

Hello Sarah,

If you are available to look up the following for me I would very much
appreciate your time and effort. I shall try and find a copy for reference
on your suggestion and information given.

Alexander Campbell b: pre-1800

Alexander married Margarate McLeod in Jura, 1818 but I cannot find where
either were born. Many thanks, Donna
