Purpose

The purpose of the Campbells of Bedford County Virginia is to identify the various Campbell families that settled or passed through Bedford County, Virginia. The long-term goal of this project is to collect male Y-DNA from Campbell male descendants of these Campbell male settlers.

In an effort to untangle the genealogies of the Campbells of Bedford County we are collecting marriage, land and probate records of the Campbells of Bedford County. This page has the Campbell Deed records.

If your Bedford County Campbell ancestor's WikiTree profile has not been attached in the table, please post a comment or send us a private message with the WikiTree ID number and we'll attach it. If your Bedford County ancestors profile does not have a Y-DNA test attached we encourage a descendant to take a Y-DNA test so we can properly document the line for posterity.

Will you join us? Please post a comment here on this page, in G2G using the project tag, or send me a private message. Thanks!
