Corrections are welcome—especially when they come with proof
I know there may be mistakes, duplicate people, conflicting dates, misspelled names, or branches attached to the wrong family. Genealogy changes when stronger evidence is found. Please reach out with the person’s name, the correction you believe is needed, and a record, photograph, obituary, Bible entry, cemetery image, or reliable source that supports it.

The archive will grow beyond the current Campbell build
Right now, the main effort is auditing and expanding the Campbell side. After this phase is farther along, the project will begin building the other side and deepen connected lines such as Cribb, Rouse, Johnson, Huggins, Norton, Dudney/Dudley, Proctor, and other surnames that join the family story.
