Charles Francis Campbell was born on26 Sep 1892 in Roscommon Ireland, parents were Henry Campbell and Catherine Mugan. He died on April 16 1934. His obituary appeared in the Montclair Times of 24 April 1934. This says he was a former resident of Montclair,died in Staten Island after a long illness and correctly names his parents and siblings. It further says he leaves a wife Beatrice Egan Campbell and daughter Kathleen. I have found Kathleen in 1930 and 1940 a lodger at 696 Bloomfield Rd Montclair but not her parents. In 1920 with his brother Martin, Charles was a lodger at the same address. I am not aware of any connection between Charles and the householder Daniel Hart. In 1950 Beatrice and Kathleen were at 53 Lloyd Rd Montclair. I have a petition for USA naturalisation
from a resident of 53 Lloyd Rd Montclair, the widow of Charles Campbell and has a daughter Kathleen. Her name is Bridget Campbell and this is what she signed. Information on the form is that she was born on 18 Jul 1881 in Frenchpark (which is in Co Roscommon Ireland), married on June 1st 1920 in Montclair and Kathleen was born on Jul 1st 1921 at Orange, New Jersey. The form gives her New York arrival details and I have checked the relevant passenger lists, confirmed her arrival details in April 1909 but birth year is shown as 1886, and her last foreign residence was Blackburn England and she had been in New Jersey since 1919. Kathleen died 11 Feb 2005 in Atlantic City. Charles is buried in the Immaculate Conception Cemetery Montclair as is is Beatrice Campbell. They are in different plots.
Working on the theory that Bridget = Beatrice I am looking for her and Charles' marriage and any census records other than those mentioned above. I have fully researched Charles' siblings and am not researching the Egan family.
