General Notes: Husband - Samuel J. Campbell


He was born in 1836. [HVC 1890, 860]
He was born on a farm in Concord Township, Butler County, PA. He left the farm about 1861, after selling out, and coming to Franklin, Venango County, bought several teams, employing a number of men in the hauling of oil in the days before the pipe lines were laid. He was so engaged until after his wife died, when he removed to Pithole, then a great oil town, and there continued the same line of business for three years, when traffic was brisk and prosperity ran so high that the post office at that point attained second class rating. But the excitement soon died out, and after his removal to Tionesta Mr. Campbell followed the trade of stonemason until ten years before his death, when illness made his retirement necessary. He was a Republican, and a member of the Presbyterian Church.
