Hello all,

I'm new to this list..... but I was wondering if anyone might know
where I can access a particular published work.

The name of the publication is:

"Scots on the Chesapeake, 1607-1830"

Does anyone have an idea as to where I can find it???

I am told that on page 23, there's information that includes the
following:

CAMPBELL, Charles - Merchant, previous residence Argyll Scotland

"Settled in VA prior to 1752.......
having left Argyll one step ahead of the Magistrate"

"Migrated from VA to Oglethorpe Co. GA....... to grow tobacco"

Source: Scottish Record Office Edinburgh
Doc. #: SRO.CS16.1.99

Besides locating the book... I'm most in need of a copy of that data
that's supposedly on page 23. Photocopy would be wonderful!!

Would this book possibly be on microfilm with the LDS recordings??

I have found him, with lots of evidence in Oglethorpe Co. GA... and
information on all of his descendants, which my Levi CAMPBELL is one,
but I'm having trouble tracing this family between 1750-1752 and 1785.

The information that I do have is:

...a wife: Elizabeth BELINDEN [or BELLENDEN, or BALINDINE, etc.]
... reportedly mother of at least, Levi CAMPBELL m. Sarah WATKINS
d. before June 1800, whereabouts of burial unknown
.... no other info on her

...last wife: m. June 1800, Mrs. Richard [Millie HORN] BAILEY, widow
in Oglethorpe Co. GA
... no known children from this last union

Charles CAMPBELL Sr, and Elizabeth BELINDEN were the parents of;
Levi CAMPBELL, b. in VA or NC
m. Sarah WATKINS, b. 1763, Johnston Co. NC

Reportedly also these, per a letter written by Laurany CAMPBELL:
Laurany CAMPBELL, b. VA or NC
m. 1. Benjamin WATKINS, widowed
m. 2. Sherwood DAVIS in 1797, Oglethorpe Co. GA
Charles CAMPBELL jr, b. in VA or NC
d. 1832, Madison Co. GA
Possible parents of:
Kiziah CAMPBELL m. Moses WATKINS

All of the WATKINS were children of:

Reace [Reech, Reese, Rise, Rhys] WATKINS, b. abt 1730 Chester Co. PA
d. 1809, Oglethorpe Co. GA
s/o Robert WATKINS m. Margaret [___] of Chester Co. PA
gr-s/o Cadawalader WATKINS, who migrated from Wales w/son Robert
m.

Sarah "Sally" BARBER, b. Augusta Co. VA
d/o George BARBER m. Elizabeth [?-Moore-?]
[widow'd Elizabeth later remarried to a Matthew PATTON]

Assistance in regards to locating this well hidden book,
"Scots on the Chesapeake, 1607-1830"
... would be wonderful, and very gratefully accepted..

Thanking all in advance,

Lisa Grimes
