General Notes: Husband - Oliver Perry Campbell

---

He was reared on a farm by his uncle, with whom he remained until 1861, when he enlisted in the army. He served until the close of the war, participating in many battles and skirmishes and enduring many hardships, being imprisoned for some time in the well known Andersonville and Florence prisons. After the close of the war he married and located on a farm near North Washington, Butler County, Pennsylvania, where he was engaged for many years in general farming. During President McKinley's administration he was appointed postmaster of West Sunbury.

His father having died when he was still a lad, he was reared on the farm of his great-uncle, Thomas Campbell, in Parker Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania. In December, 1861, he enlisted at Kittanning, Pennsylvania, in Company K, One Hundred and Third Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, serving three years and then veteranizing with the same regiment, his service in all covering a period of three years and seven months. He was captured by the Confederates at Plymouth, North Carolina, April 20, 1864, and was taken to Andersonville Prison, where he was detained five months. For the following three months he was confined in a temporary prison at the Charleston Fair Grounds, and was then taken to Florence, South Carolina, where he remained a prisoner until his exchange, in December, 1864. From that time until the spring of 1865, he was sick at the home of his great-uncle, but on recuperating he rejoined his regiment and remained with them until receiving his discharge at Newburn, North Carolina, in June, 1865. After his services to his country were completed, he returned home for several weeks, then going to Oil Creek, near Oil City, and for two years was employed in the oil fields, after which he engaged in farming in Washington Township. After about eight years spent in the latter township, he moved to Cherry Township, where he followed the same occupation for a period covering seventeen years, and in the spring of 1896 he came to West Sunbury.
