Grandmother to the wife of my 1st cousin 4 times removed John Edward Campbell, son of Rebecca Anne Lockhart and Robert Madison Campbell. Sally Williams Journeycake was the daughter of Abraham Williams and his wife whose maiden name was Castleman. She served as an interpreter for Methodist missionaries to the Wyandotte Indians in Ohio (her mother had been taken captive by Native Americans) and later for other missionaries in Kansas. Her son Charles Journeycake was the last chief of the Delaware Indians and made the trek from Ohio to Indian Territory (Kansas and later Oklahoma) as a boy. He was later also a Baptist minister. His wife was Jane Sosha. His grandchildren through his daughter Emeline "Emma" Journeycake and John Edward Campbell were Roberta, Robert, and Herbert. His great-grandchildren through this family (as many as I've found) are Edward Lawson and John Campbell. Edward's father was Eugene Lawson and John's mother was Flora Dougherty.
I can fill in the blanks for you following the JE / Emma Campbell line through son Herbert L. Campbell to present day if you are interested. You may contact me through email thedevorefamily at yahoo dot com

ReplyDeleteMy information is that my grandfather, Herbert Lockhart (H.L.) Campbell, married Flora Daugherty of Liberty, Mo., on Feb. 27, 1907. They had one son, John Edward Campbell, born on July 5, 1908. This would indicate that the child was conceived out of wedlock. The couple met while H.L. was attending William Jewell College. They must have divorced, because H.L. subsequently married his first cousin, Jesse Walton Campbell. H.L. had little contact with his son, John Edward, throughout his life. H.L. and Jesse had the same paternal grandfather, Robert Madison Campbell, of Upper Opequon, Va., whose wife was Rebecca Anne Lockhart, daughter of Gen. Josiah Lockhart.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for adding your knowledge here of H.L. Campbell and Flora Daugherty and their son John Edward Campbell. H.L., John, and yourself all being descendants of Brigadier General Josiah E. Lockhart, our common ancestor. Nice to meet you cousin!
