General Notes: Husband - Robert Campbell


He was a man of education and refinement, was a teacher of high and scholarly attainments, and in addition understood the trade of a weaver. Coming to America, his only daughter died at sea, but his son, James, remained to him. After his arrival in the New World, Robert Campbell spent some little time in looking about for a favorable place in which to make his permanent abiding-place, and finally purchased 400 acres of land in Ross and Pine townships, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. He made his home on the portion of the property that was in Ross township, and for many years successfully followed teaching, weaving and farming, becoming a leading spirit of that growing section. He died when four score years of age, leaving all of his accumulated property to his only son, James.
