Hi there,

You have added to our storehouse of knowledge as I don't think Fred knew about Alexander being the first born child or about Katie Jane. Fred is always adding to his knowledge about his tree so I may wrong there.
Fred lives in Perth, Scotland, as do I. We meet up in the local library from time to time. Frederick James is a popular name combination with these Campbells it would seem.

Hi there,

My genealogy software tells me that both Fred Campbell and yourself are each other's first cousin once removed.

Hi there,

Sorry, the fault is mine, I was looking at the wrong generation. So your mother Mary was the fourth child of Donald Campbell and Mary Ann Carr. This couple married in June 1898 at Larbert, in Stirling. Donald Campbell and Mary Ann Carr had nine children as far as Fred and I have been able to discover. These were Neil, Donald, Ann, Mary, Henry, Dolina, Jessie, William and lastly Robert. Fred is descended from your mother Mary's younger brother william. William married Rose Marjorie Jeans abt. 1943. This marriage produced a son called Frederick who in turn married an Agnes Ryan and this marriage produced the Fred I know. Hope this clears up the confusion.

Hi there,

I am sure Fred would be interested to talk to you. Were your grandparents Robert Campbell and Pauline Ethel Jeans?

Cheers,

Grant

Hi Rachel,

Your post on Rootschat was brought to my attention by my friend Fred Campbell, who is researching his family tree. Fred is not so computer literate so brought the post he found by accident to me to see if I could work out how to make contact with you. I have helped Fred out quite a bit with his family tree over the past few years and am fairly conversant with the state of play as regards Fred's research into his Skye forebears. I cannot tell you the exact date of birth of Neil McPhie but I can tell you that he was at Waterloo and also fought at the battle of Salamanca, in Spain .  Neil McPhie had at least 5 children. These were Euphemia, John, Alexander, Jessie, and Catherine. Fred is descended from Jessie McPhie who married an Alexander Campbell on the 10th Feb. 1876 at Lonmore, in the Parish of Duirinish, in the County of Inverness. Neil McPhie is Fred's 3rd great grandfather on his dad's side. I look forward to hearing from you.

Grant
