THE CAMPBELL / COLLINS FAMILY

This side of the family came from Mississippi; our grandfather, Charles Edgar Campbell, was born on October 26, 1855, in College Hill, Mississippi. He was one of eleven children born to Daniel Marion Campbell and Ruth Caroline Marion. Charles was the youngest child. (According to Mama, Ruth Caroline was a relative to the American Revolutionary hero, Gen. Francis Marion. Ruth Caroline was raised in North Carolina, and, when she married, her parents presented her with a hundred Negroes for a wedding gift. When she brought them to her new home in Mississippi, a lot of cabins had to be built over the plantation to house them. And when the Civil War was ended the freed slaves would not leave, it seemed they all loved Daniel Campbell.) (He was a Christian man.)

Ida Katherine Collins was born March 13, 1861, in Abbeville, MS. Her parents were Dr. Francis Marion Collins and Ruth Caroline Humphries. Dr. Collins was killed, by a train, in Abbeville and is buried there. Ruth (Humphries) Collins also died in Abbeville.

Charles and Ida Katherine were married in Abbeville, MS, on September 21, 1890. They created, with the Lord’s help, six children; and raised seven, Ida Kate’s first daughter, Lillian Ford. Ida Kate had been married to a Lloyd Ford, who died in a political altercation. The Campbell children were: Grace; Ruth Christine, born February 06, 1893, at Abbeville, Francis Marion, “Frank”; Georgia (deceased); Stone; and Lucille. Frank was named for Gen. Marion, Charles’s relative; Stone was named for a Mississippi governor that Charles admired.

According to Mama, on March 01, 1900 the family moved to Davis, Indian Territory. She was seven years old at that time, and years later remembered: “…by train. This as beautiful country and new to all of us and the Indians were so plentiful and so foreign to anything we had ever seen we kept far away from them.”

I’ve been told that Ida Katherine, whose father was a doctor, grew up on a plantation and had her own personal coloured maid. I also know that Grandpa Campbell was a court clerk and a school teacher, before becoming a farmer in Oklahoma. Grandpa and Grandma had followed Ida's brother, Dr. George Collins, to Davis, Indian Territory. When their house, in Davis, burned down they moved the family to Wanette, Oklahoma. In Wanette, having been educated and having experience in law, Charles became a judge. (Grandma once told me, she didn’t marry Charles for love, but because he was an educated man.) Not long ago, couples he had joined in marriage referred to him as “Judge Campbell.” Now, all but one of the Campbell family are deceased, the youngest who is a retired school teacher.

Charles’s and Ida’s children, Mama’s sisters and brothers, achieved many things. Grace taught school for a while, married and had a daughter, Mary Alston. She became active in politics in Electra, Texas, and worked on the election board. Christine became the mother of twelve children: Mildred, Wilson, Jack, Grace, Virginia, Mary, Ruth, Sam, Lucille, Fay, Lillian, and Patricia.

Frank was a World War I veteran. Stone was a real estate manager. Lucille majored in music at the Oklahoma Baptist University, and later taught music in public schools. She was also a private instructor of voice and piano, before retiring to Sherman, TX. The half-sister, Lillian (Ford) Kirk, operated a ladies’ clothing store in Ranger, TX, married and had one son, Kenneth Kirk.

To learn about the children of Christine, read “The Phillips Family”!

The above letter came in to my possession as part of a package of family research done by my cousin Brad Campbell (working with genealogist Junel Davidson).

In October 2011 I was able to contact Lucille Massey, daughter of Christine (Campbell) Phillips. She confirmed her sister was the author of this letter.
