Argyllshire / Re: Dukes of Argyll
« on: Friday 09 February 18 01:12 GMT (UK)  »
I was told by my Grandmother that her father or Grandfather was to be the next Duke or Earl of Argyll.  He came to America (I am assuming it may have been my G Grandfather Robert Campbell if not it was GG Grandfather Robert)   early  1900s as my Grandmother was born in 1911 and her sister was a couple of years older.  It has been told that when the Duke of Argyll (of that time period) passed away they located him here in the US and he gave up the title, etc. to stay in America.  He did not want to go back.  I know that my Great Grandfather Robert Campbell married my great Grandmother Edna Reiger. upon her getting pregnant.  A shotgun wedding apparently.  2 children were born of this marriage  Ruby Ellen(grandmother), and Jewel.  They were divorced and he remarried and lived in illinois near Chicago.  There were 2 or three children by that marriage one of the boy's name was "Buck"  I believe   .  But his birthname was also Robert .  but that is all that I know about him I have been searching for any information about the title going to a cousin around the time that my G Grandfather decided to stay here in the states.  If there is any list of the people who held the title I would appreciate you to contact me please
