Pg. 338
JAMES C. CAMPBELL, farmer, post office Sharpsburg, was born in O’Hara (then Indiana) Twp. in 1832, a son of THOMAS and MARY (CRAWFORD) CAMPBELL. THOMAS, who was a native of County Derry, Ireland, immigrated to America about 1828, and two years after his arrival he married. Four children were born to him, two of whom are living. THOMAS was always a farmer, and died in 1848, age 42 years; his widow lived to the ripe age of 86 years. JAMES C. was born and reared on the farm where he now resides. He married MARY, daughter of SAMUEL BORLAND, to whom were born four children, whose names are ANNIE E., CRAWFORD, MARY C. and SADIE M. The mother of these children died, and MR. CAMPBELL then married ISABELLA, daughter of ALEXANDER and ISABELLA MARSHALL. Three children are the result of the this marriage: WILLIAM O., LAURA B. and MARTHA JANE. The only members of MR. CAMPBELL’S family not at home are ANNIE E. (married to THOMAS E. MILLER, and they have one son, HOWARD, and one daughter, EDNA BELL) and CRAWFORD (married to ANNA MARY WRAGG, and they have one son, GEORGE C.) MR. CAMPBELL has always followed farming and now owns one-half of the 120 acres purchased by his great-grandfather, JAMES CRAWFORD. He has held many township offices and positions of trust. He and his family are members of the Presbyterian Church; politically he is a republican.
