General Notes: Husband - Robert Campbell


As soon as the central part of Butler County, Pennsylvania, was thrown open to settlement (about 1796), his father and several of his brothers visited the region, and selected a large tract of land in the vicinity of the present town of Petrolia; and also a tract of several hundred acres in the present township of Concord. A removal of all the family (to the locality first mentioned) was made soon after, and finally, in dividing the land recently acquired here, the tract in Concord Township fell, by "drawing cuts" among the brothers, to the lot of Robert, the oldest son. This tract was then considered the least valuable of all, containing as it did so much level, wet land. But time proved it to be of the greatest worth, compared with the Petrolia neighborhood, for agricultural purposes. About the year 1797, Robert Campbell settled on this tract, and his father and mother also came to his house, where they resided then until decease.
