205	In the year 1751, the Rev. Samuel Davies, then residing in Hanover, Virginia, made an excursion for preaching, to the Roanoke. In the course of his journeyings, he became acquainted with Henry Pattillo, then a young man desirous of commencing his studies in preparation for the gospel ministry, and invited him to come and commence his course with him in Hanover. This invitation Mr. Pattillo at first declined, as he had engaged to go to Pennsylvania with another young man, and commence his studies under the care and tuition of the Rev. Mr. John Thomson, who was at this time in Carolina on a mission to the new settlements. In the year 1744, in compliance with a “representation from many people in North Carolina - showing their desolate condition, and requesting the Synod to take their condition into consideration, and petitioning that we would appoint one of our number to correspond with them,- Mr. Thomson, of Donegal Presbytery, was appointed by the Synod to correspond with them. He was this time on a visit to these petitioners, and others in Carolina. source: Henry Foote, William.

209	JAMES BUCHANAN, the fifteenth President of the United States, was born near Mercersburg, in Franklin County, Pa., April 23, 1791. He was a son of James Buchanan and Elizabeth Speer. James Buchanan the elder was a native of County Donegal, Ireland, and emigrated to America in 1783, settling in Franklin County. About 1798 the family removed to the village of Mercersburg. Here young Buchanan attended school, and laid the foundation of an education which in after-years carried him to an eminence he then little dreamed of. He entered Dickinson College, at Carlisle, in 1805, and graduated with high honors in 1809. After studying law in the office of James Hopkins, at Lancaster, for three years, he was admitted to the bar in 1812. While at college he gave evidence of a remarkable mind, and he had been admitted to the bar but a little time when his talent and learning placed him in a prominent position and inducted him into a lucrative practice. In 1812 he enlisted in the service of the republic in the war with Great Britain, serving in the company of Capt. Henry Shippen. He was elected to the State Legislature in 1814 serving in the lower house and re elected in 1815 He was elected to Congress from his district in 1820. In politics he was at first a Federalist, but in 1828 he became a Democrat, and supported Gen. Jackson for the Presidency. He served almost continuously as a Congressman from 1820 till 1831, when he retired voluntarily and was appointed by President Jackson as Minister to Russia. He negotiated and concluded the first commercial treaty between the United States and Russia, opening the latter's ports to our commerce. He returned to the United States in 1833, and was made senator from his native State, serving from 1834 to 1845. He was appointed Secretary of State by James K. Polk in 1845, and filled that important position till 1849. After a retirement of four years he was appointed Minister to the Court of St. James in 1853. In 1856 he was nominated on the Democratic ticket for President in opposition to John C. Fremont, Republican, and Millard Fillmore, American. Mr. Buchanan was elected, receiving one hundred and seventy-four electoral votes, and was inaugurated March 4, 1857. Though from a State in which no slavery existed, Mr. Buchanan was hostile to those who opposed its extension, and was also an extreme advocate of the sovereignty of individual States. In a message to Congress in December, 1860, he blamed the people of the North for the disruption of the Union, and affirmed that the Executive had no power or right to prevent the secession of a State. The principal events of his legislative career were his advocacy of the recognition of the independence of Texas, and afterwards his support at the time of its admittance as a State; his service as chairman of the Congressional Committee on Foreign Relations; his advocacy of the “Sub-Treasury Act;” his opposition to the Fiscal Bank bill and support of an independent treasury. In 1861 he retired to his residence at Wheatland, and resided there until his death. In 1866 he published “Mr. Buchanan's Administration,” a book designed to defend the acts of his administration as President. His course as the President of the United States, while condemned by the great majority of the people of the Northern States, was evidently directed by his views upon the questions at issue, and in the light of future revelations will probably be reviewed with less severe judgment. He died at Wheatland, June 1, 1868. source: Ellis, Franklin and Samuel Evans. History of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania with Biographical Sketches of Many of its Pioneers and Prominent Men.

210	JAMES CAMPBELL, born 1756; died, June 10th, 1781. Married: probably 1779, Margaret McMichael; died Sept. 7th, 1825, buried at Carlisle, Pa. After James Campbell's death his widow married 1st, Aug. 19th, 1782, Lambert VanDyke, son of Henry and Elizabeth (Davis) VanDyke of Buffalo Valley. The service was performed by Rev. John Elder of Paxtang Church. By her second husband Margaret (McMichael) Campbell had six sons all of whom married and whose progeny are scattered well over the United States. Dr. Henry VanDyke is perhaps the most widely known of her descendants. In the genealogy of George Douglas VanDyke of Milwaukee. Wis., Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol. 1, p. 256, mention of Margaret McMichael's first marriage to James Campbell is omitted by mistake. The present writer called Mr. George VanDyke's attention to the fact and in his letter of reply he expressed his regret and stated that he would have the error rectified in any future edition of the work. After the death of Lambert VanDyke, his widow married a third husband in 1795, Benjamin Thompson of Carlisle, Pa. James Campbell was a soldier of the Revolution and died at the early age of twenty-five, from wounds received in battle. Family tradition says that he was an officer. A James Campbell was ensign in the Officers Seventh Battalion, Col. John Boyd, 1777. The name appears many times on Pennsylvania Revolutionary rolls with no means of identification beyond the counties from which the men enlisted. After having searched printed records in vain for a notice of James Campbell's death, the writer made a trip to Derry graveyard and discovered that several mistakes had been made in copying the inscriptions for publication. Three inscriptions of different James Campbells were found to be incorrect in Mr. Egle's compilation of them. In one case he has the date of death as Aug. 20th, 1734, and the age as 78, whereas on the tombstone it is May 20th, and the age 75 years. I found a small stone inscribed “In memory of James Campbell, who departed this life June 10th, 1781, aged twenty-five years.” Egle had given the date as June 10th, 1783, ten months after James Campbell's widow had married her second husband. As his parents were married in 1755, and we from the statement of his daughter that he did not die until she was about a year old, this date on the tombstone fits in exactly with facts we know, and beyond question the grave of our James.

211	JAMES CAMPBELL, born, 1689 in Ireland; died May 31st; 1771 at Derry (now Hershey), Pa. Married: 1st, . . . . . . . . 2d, Agnes . . . . . . . ., born, 1707; died, April d, 1757; buried beside her husband. 3d, Mrs. Rosanna Vernon, a widow with at least two children March 2d, 1737, James Campbell is on a list of warrantees of land in Derry Twp. for 300 acres. On the same date 279 acres of land in Derry Twp. were “surveyed to” James Campbell. Egle's History of Dauphin County, Pa., p. 39: James and John Campbell were among the signers of a “humble petition of the inhabitants of the townships of Paxtang, Derry and Hanover, Lancaster County,” to the Governor of the Province, dated July 22d, 1754, showing “that your petitioners being settled on or near the river Susquehanna apprehend themselves in great danger from the French and French Indians. . . . We, your petitioners therefore humbly pray that your Honour would take our distressed condition into consideration and make such provision for us as may prevent ourselves and families from being destroyed and ruined by such a cruel enemy.” This was during the French and Indian War and old documents show that murders and scalpings by the Indians were of almost daily occurrence in 1756 and 1757, and had it not been for the bravery and military ability of Rev. John Elder the “Fighting Parson,” Captain of the Paxton Rangers and later Colonel under the provincial Government, the terrorized inhabitants in all likelihood would have fled the frontier. James Campbell was survived by his wife Rosanna, and in his will mentioned his step-daughter Jean Edmundson; James Vernon, son of his step-son Harry Vernon; Robert Cross's children; sister Martha Cary, then in Ireland; sister Elizabeth Long, then in Ireland; his sons John and Patrick; and James Campbell, son of his son Patrick. Rev. John Roan was witness to the will. James Campbell is buried in old Derry churchyard and the inscription on his tombstone has been published numerous times as an example of the lugubrious in epitaphs. It cannot be omitted here. “Under this stone lies entombed James Campbell's Dust you see Who was as healthy and as strong As many that may be But now by Death whom all devours Is laid upon this cell With crawling worms and reptiles base He is obliged to dwell. You that these lines do look upon May also call to mind That Death will be your certain fate Therefore improve your time.” Children: Patrick, John, and others. source: Douglas, Bessie P.

237	JOHN CAMPBELL, born, 1656 in Ireland; died, Feb 20th, 1734 in Derry, Pa.; buried in the old Derry churchyard. John Campbell is said to have come from Ireland in 1726 with several grown sons (see children below). He settled in Lancaster Co., Pa where he lived until his death. (Egle.) In the “Virginia Historical Magazine,” Vol. 7, p. 126, it is stated that John Campbell came from Ireland to America in 1726 with five or six grown sons, settled first in Lancaster Co., Pa., and came in 1738 to that part of Orange Co., Va., which is now Augusta Co., with his sons Patrick, Robert and David. One would infer that this John must be identical with Mr. Egle's John. It is unlikely that two John Campbells with several grown sons, bearing the same names, would have come to America in the same year. Patrick, Robert, and David, sons of Mr. Egle's John, did move to Virginia, but the father John, buried in Pennsylvania in 1734, certainly did not. The removal of Patrick, Robert and David, to Virginia, as well as known records of their descendants, eliminates them as ancestors of our line, all of whom lived at or near Derry until 1800. The fifth son, John, an Episcopal clergyman at York, Pa., whose records are fairly complete is also eliminated, which leaves but James of Derry as our undoubted ancestor. Children: Robert, lived in Virginia and had five children. David, moved to Orange Co., Va., in 1741; married Margaret Hamilton. James, born, 1689, in Ireland. Patrick, born 1690, in Ireland, moved to Orange Co., Va., about 1740. John, born, 1692, in Ireland; died, 1764, at York, Pa. An Episcopal Clergyman. source: Douglas, Bessie P.

238	John Campbell, the oldest son of David, was born in 1741, and received a good English education. He accompanied Dr. Thomas Walker in his exploration in 1765, and purchased for his father a tract of land called the “Royal Oak,” near the head waters of the Holston. A year or two afterwards, he and his brother Arthur, and their sister Margaret, moved to that place and made improvements. About 1771, the parents and the other children removed to the same place. John Campbell was a Lieutenant in William Campbell's company, Colonel Christian's regiment, in 1774, which arrived at Point Pleasant too late for the battle of October 10th. In July, 1776, he was second in command at the battle of the Long Island Flats of Holston, which resulted in a signal victory over the Indians. In October of the same year he commanded a company under Colonel Christian in his expedition against the Cherokee towns, and up to 1781 was almost constantly in military service. He was appointed clerk of Washington County Court in 1778, and held the office till 1824. His death occurred in 1825. He was the father of Governor David Campbell. source: Waddell, Joseph Addison.

In the later part of the reign of Queen Elizabeth, Duncan Campbell, son of Dugal Campbell of Inverary, and an officer in the English army, went from Scotland to Ireland. In the year 1612 forfeitures of large estates were declared in Ulster, some of the forfeited lands being bought by Duncan Campbell. In 1726, John Campbell and Mary Campbell, two of his descendants emigrated to America. John Campbell, with his wife and children, first settled in Pennsylvania, moving from Lancaster County, about 1730, to Virginia.

In the year 1751, the Rev. Samuel Davies, then residing in Hanover, Virginia, made an excursion for preaching, to the Roanoke. In the course of his journeyings, he became acquainted with Henry Pattillo, then a young man desirous of commencing his studies in preparation for the gospel ministry, and invited him to come and commence his course with him in Hanover. This invitation Mr. Pattillo at first declined, as he had engaged to go to Pennsylvania with another young man, and commence his studies under the care and tuition of the Rev. Mr. John Thomson, who was at this time in Carolina on a mission to the new settlements.

In the year 1744, in compliance with a “representation from many people in North Carolina - showing their desolate condition, and requesting the Synod to take their condition into consideration, and petitioning that we would appoint one of our number to correspond with them,- Mr. Thomson, of Donegal Presbytery, was appointed by the Synod to correspond with them. He was this time on a visit to these petitioners, and others in Carolina.

209

JAMES BUCHANAN, the fifteenth President of the United States, was born near Mercersburg, in Franklin County, Pa., April 23, 1791. He was a son of James Buchanan and Elizabeth Speer. James Buchanan the elder was a native of County Donegal, Ireland, and emigrated to America in 1783, settling in Franklin County. About 1798 the family removed to the village of Mercersburg. Here young Buchanan attended school, and laid the foundation of an education which in after-years carried him to an eminence he then little dreamed of. He entered Dickinson College, at Carlisle, in 1805, and graduated with high honors in 1809. After studying law in the office of James Hopkins, at Lancaster, for three years, he was admitted to the bar in 1812. While at college he gave evidence of a remarkable mind, and he had been admitted to the bar but a little time when his talent and learning placed him in a prominent position and inducted him into a lucrative practice. In 1812 he enlisted in the service of the republic in the war with Great Britain, serving in the company of Capt. Henry Shippen. He was elected to the State Legislature in 1814 serving in the lower house and re elected in 1815 He was elected to Congress from his district in 1820. In politics he was at first a Federalist, but in 1828 he became a Democrat, and supported Gen. Jackson for the Presidency. He served almost continuously as a Congressman from 1820 till 1831, when he retired voluntarily and was appointed by President Jackson as Minister to Russia. He negotiated and concluded the first commercial treaty between the United States and Russia, opening the latter's ports to our commerce. He returned to the United States in 1833, and was made senator from his native State, serving from 1834 to 1845. He was appointed Secretary of State by James K. Polk in 1845, and filled that important position till 1849. After a retirement of four years he was appointed Minister to the Court of St. James in 1853. In 1856 he was nominated on the Democratic ticket for President in opposition to John C. Fremont, Republican, and Millard Fillmore, American. Mr. Buchanan was elected, receiving one hundred and seventy-four electoral votes, and was inaugurated March 4, 1857. Though from a State in which no slavery existed, Mr. Buchanan was hostile to those who opposed its extension, and was also an extreme advocate of the sovereignty of individual States. In a message to Congress in December, 1860, he blamed the people of the North for the disruption of the Union, and affirmed that the Executive had no power or right to prevent the secession of a State. The principal events of his legislative career were his advocacy of the recognition of the independence of Texas, and afterwards his support at the time of its admittance as a State; his service as chairman of the Congressional Committee on Foreign Relations; his advocacy of the “Sub-Treasury Act;” his opposition to the Fiscal Bank bill and support of an independent treasury. In 1861 he retired to his residence at Wheatland, and resided there until his death. In 1866 he published “Mr. Buchanan's Administration,” a book designed to defend the acts of his administration as President. His course as the President of the United States, while condemned by the great majority of the people of the Northern States, was evidently directed by his views upon the questions at issue, and in the light of future revelations will probably be reviewed with less severe judgment. He died at Wheatland, June 1, 1868.

JAMES CAMPBELL, born 1756; died, June 10th, 1781.

Married: probably 1779, Margaret McMichael; died Sept. 7th, 1825, buried at Carlisle, Pa.

After James Campbell's death his widow married 1st, Aug. 19th, 1782, Lambert VanDyke, son of Henry and Elizabeth (Davis) VanDyke of Buffalo Valley. The service was performed by Rev. John Elder of Paxtang Church. By her second husband Margaret (McMichael) Campbell had six sons all of whom married and whose progeny are scattered well over the United States. Dr. Henry VanDyke is perhaps the most widely known of her descendants. In the genealogy of George Douglas VanDyke of Milwaukee. Wis., Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol. 1, p. 256, mention of Margaret McMichael's first marriage to James Campbell is omitted by mistake. The present writer called Mr. George VanDyke's attention to the fact and in his letter of reply he expressed his regret and stated that he would have the error rectified in any future edition of the work.

After the death of Lambert VanDyke, his widow married a third husband in 1795, Benjamin Thompson of Carlisle, Pa.

James Campbell was a soldier of the Revolution and died at the early age of twenty-five, from wounds received in battle. Family tradition says that he was an officer. A James Campbell was ensign in the Officers Seventh Battalion, Col. John Boyd, 1777. The name appears many times on Pennsylvania Revolutionary rolls with no means of identification beyond the counties from which the men enlisted.

After having searched printed records in vain for a notice of James Campbell's death, the writer made a trip to Derry graveyard and discovered that several mistakes had been made in copying the inscriptions for publication. Three inscriptions of different James Campbells were found to be incorrect in Mr. Egle's compilation of them. In one case he has the date of death as Aug. 20th, 1734, and the age as 78, whereas on the tombstone it is May 20th, and the age 75 years. I found a small stone inscribed “In memory of James Campbell, who departed this life June 10th, 1781, aged twenty-five years.” Egle had given the date as June 10th, 1783, ten months after James Campbell's widow had married her second husband. As his parents were married in 1755, and we from the statement of his daughter that he did not die until she was about a year old, this date on the tombstone fits in exactly with facts we know, and beyond question the grave of our James.

Children:

Eleanor, born June 26th, 1780.

Married: 1st, . . . . . . . .

3d, Mrs. Rosanna Vernon, a widow with at least two children

March 2d, 1737, James Campbell is on a list of warrantees of land in Derry Twp. for 300 acres. On the same date 279 acres of land in Derry Twp. were “surveyed to” James Campbell.

Egle's History of Dauphin County, Pa., p. 39: James and John Campbell were among the signers of a “humble petition of the inhabitants of the townships of Paxtang, Derry and Hanover, Lancaster County,” to the Governor of the Province, dated July 22d, 1754, showing “that your petitioners being settled on or near the river Susquehanna apprehend themselves in great danger from the French and French Indians. . . . We, your petitioners therefore humbly pray that your Honour would take our distressed condition into consideration and make such provision for us as may prevent ourselves and families from being destroyed and ruined by such a cruel enemy.” This was during the French and Indian War and old documents show that murders and scalpings by the Indians were of almost daily occurrence in 1756 and 1757, and had it not been for the bravery and military ability of Rev. John Elder the “Fighting Parson,” Captain of the Paxton Rangers and later Colonel under the provincial Government, the terrorized inhabitants in all likelihood would have fled the frontier.

James Campbell was survived by his wife Rosanna, and in his will mentioned his step-daughter Jean Edmundson; James Vernon, son of his step-son Harry Vernon; Robert Cross's children; sister Martha Cary, then in Ireland; sister Elizabeth Long, then in Ireland; his sons John and Patrick; and James Campbell, son of his son Patrick. Rev. John Roan was witness to the will.

James Campbell is buried in old Derry churchyard and the inscription on his tombstone has been published numerous times as an example of the lugubrious in epitaphs. It cannot be omitted here.

“Under this stone lies entombed
James Campbell's Dust you see
Who was as healthy and as strong
As many that may be
But now by Death whom all devours
Is laid upon this cell
With crawling worms and reptiles base
He is obliged to dwell.
You that these lines do look upon
May also call to mind
That Death will be your certain fate
Therefore improve your time.”

John,

John Campbell came from Ireland to America in 1726, with five or six grown sons and several daughters, and settled first in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. Six or eight years afterwards he removed to that part of Orange county, Virginia, which, in 1738, became Augusta county, where many of his numerous descendants lived for many years.

Three of John Campbell's sons came with him to Augusta, viz: Patrick, Robert and David.

JOHN CAMPBELL, born, 1656 in Ireland; died, Feb 20th, 1734 in Derry, Pa.; buried in the old Derry churchyard.

John Campbell is said to have come from Ireland in 1726 with several grown sons (see children below). He settled in Lancaster Co., Pa where he lived until his death. (Egle.)

In the “Virginia Historical Magazine,” Vol. 7, p. 126, it is stated that John Campbell came from Ireland to America in 1726 with five or six grown sons, settled first in Lancaster Co., Pa., and came in 1738 to that part of Orange Co., Va., which is now Augusta Co., with his sons Patrick, Robert and David.

One would infer that this John must be identical with Mr. Egle's John. It is unlikely that two John Campbells with several grown sons, bearing the same names, would have come to America in the same year. Patrick, Robert, and David, sons of Mr. Egle's John, did move to Virginia, but the father John, buried in Pennsylvania in 1734, certainly did not.

The removal of Patrick, Robert and David, to Virginia, as well as known records of their descendants, eliminates them as ancestors of our line, all of whom lived at or near Derry until 1800. The fifth son, John, an Episcopal clergyman at York, Pa., whose records are fairly complete is also eliminated, which leaves but James of Derry as our undoubted ancestor.

Children:

Robert, lived in Virginia and had five children.

David, moved to Orange Co., Va., in 1741; married Margaret Hamilton.

James, born, 1689, in Ireland.

Patrick, born 1690, in Ireland, moved to Orange Co., Va., about 1740.

John, born, 1692, in Ireland; died, 1764, at York, Pa. An Episcopal Clergyman.

John Campbell, the oldest son of David, was born in 1741, and received a good English education. He accompanied Dr. Thomas Walker in his exploration in 1765, and purchased for his father a tract of land called the “Royal Oak,” near the head waters of the Holston. A year or two afterwards, he and his brother Arthur, and their sister Margaret, moved to that place and made improvements. About 1771, the parents and the other children removed to the same place.

John Campbell was a Lieutenant in William Campbell's company, Colonel Christian's regiment, in 1774, which arrived at Point Pleasant too late for the battle of October 10th. In July, 1776, he was second in command at the battle of the Long Island Flats of Holston, which resulted in a signal victory over the Indians. In October of the same year he commanded a company under Colonel Christian in his expedition against the Cherokee towns, and up to 1781 was almost constantly in military service. He was appointed clerk of Washington County Court in 1778, and held the office till 1824. His death occurred in 1825. He was the father of Governor David Campbell.
