Biography

Percival Adam (possibly Adam Percival) Campbell or possibly Rogur Campell may have been born in Argyll, Scotland in 1710 and married a Sarah Cook in 1734. He may have died in Rowan County, North Carolina, USA in 1781 at age 71. His father may have been Nicholas Campbell, born in Scotland in 1689. Percival Adam Campbell may have had at least one son, Percial Adam Campbell. Sourcing for these facts awaits further research.^[1]

Research Notes

The parents of his son, Percival Adam Campbell are uncertain. The only sources currently available are the Scotish birth records of Percival Adam Campbell and mention in the H.P. Van Hoy Campbell Family History in 1925 of a Pierce Campbell who married a Sarah Cook. The Van Hoy history does not give any dates of birth or death.^[2]

The parents on the son's Find A Grave: Memorial #65702275 are Patrick Campbell 1696-1767 and Elizabeth Taylor 1698-1754, which do not match this profile.
