THE CAMPBELL LINE

Dundavie picture and map Origins of this line from Stuart Park decendant of James Campbell b.09 jan1835
Marriage notice Southern Cross NZ.21 april 1857
James Campbell son of Alexander Campbell of Dundaree, Grandtully, Scotland

This should have read Dundavie, 2 cottages just east of Aberfeldy, Perthshire
Info 2 origins 1841 census shows 2 Campbell families Alexander and John both aged 50
both with eldest son named John, which Suggests that they might be related families
1841 census adult ages were normally rounded to nearest 5 years
which would suggest they were born 1785-1790
Info 3 probate However catherine age is given as exact 48 but then John 50 is 64 in next census


From the 1841 and 51 census plus IGI the probable tree looks like

Info 4 Borlick Farm

Ealier research done for Stuart Park had Alexander Campbell 1st Married to effie?
and 2nd to Isabella Daw about 1834 in Edinburgh midlothian
However neither found in IGI and 2nd marriage is definitly to Margaret

The 1982 microfich version of the IGI fich6903069 gives the more likely marriages of
Janet McIntyre 07 sep 1816 Dull and

Margt. Scott 15 sep 1833 Dull and Little Dunkeld
Marriage Banns for Margaret in both places which fits with Margaret being Scott being from Borlick Farm which although only just across the river from Dundavie is in Dunkeld Parish Also Margaret Scott as second wife is confirmed by the 1851 census and probate papers for Alexander Campbell dated 18 aug 1851 with Margaret Campbell nee Scott as widow.
