Descendants of William Ball

Generation No. 13


15. MARTHA PATSY13 GLASCOCK (JOHN MILTON12, GEORGE11, ESTHER10 BALL, RICHARD9, WILLIAM8, WILLIAM7, WILLIAM6, JOHN PARIS5, JOHN PARIS4, WILLIAM3, ROBERT2, WILLIAM1) was born 1796 in Craven Co., NC, and died 1884 in Bibb Co., AL. She married JR. AARON CAMPBELL Bet. 1816 - 1819 in Franklin Co., GA, son of AARON CAMPBELL and LYDIA LNU. He was born 1796 in Franklin Co., GA, and died 1857 in Bibb Co., AL.

Notes for J
R. AARON CAMPBELL:
1825 Bibb County Alabama Commissioner Court Minutes - found by John D. Glasscock (E-mail: jondavid@hiwaay.net (John D. Glasscock) 12095 County Road 51, Jemison, AL 35085, phone 205.688.4343. He descends from John Milton Glasscock, Jr.) : "Ordered that James Glascock, Thomas Glascock, Calvin Glascock, John Milton Glascock, Jr., Aaron Campbell, Alexander Wilson pay quarter yearly on the first of January, April, July, and October to the overseer of the Poor in Capt. Benjamin M. Reynolds Militia Company the sum of three dollars each to be applied by the said overseer of the poor and his successors for the support and maintenance of John M. Glascock, Snr., father of the said James, Thomas, Calvin and John M. Glascock and father in law of the said Aaron Campbell and Alexander Wilson."

In 1830 there is a female age 50/60 living with them. I believe this is Aaron's mother, Lydia.

In the 1840 census there is a male 20-30 yrs. old living with them. Is this another son? Would have been born 1810-1820.

Aaron and Martha were among the first settlers into the Mulberry settlement in Bibb Co. Al. They were among the group who organized the Mulberry Church.

Aaron Jr. could have been in the War of 1812 at age 16. He was probably given a land grant of approx. 476 acres in Bibb Co., AL by the government. This land is mentioned in Patsy Campbell's Will.

3 Campbell's appear in Bibb County by 1825, Aaron, David (and Charity) and Elijah (and Lizzie
Kemp).

There were two Elijahs in Bibb Co. One I have listed as Aaron and Patsy Glascock Campbell's son who died 10 Oct 1843. The other is from a census for 1850 Bibb Co., AL. They were not the same Elijahs, obviously. Early history of Bibb Co. said there were three Campbells in Bibb Co by 1825, Aaron, David (and Charity), and Elijah (and Lizzie Kemp). This Elijah was probably the son of Aaron Campbell Jr. The second Elijah I found in the 1850 Bibb Co, AL census was married to Caroline, and all his kids had names which were repeated in the Campbell line. Aaron Jr's Will does not mention an Elijah (who was already dead at the time) nor Elijah's children, which makes me think Elijah #2 was not Elijah #1's son. (Martha Cross Mordecai, 2003)

There was a Henry Campbell listed in either VA or NC who was married to Charity LNU. He was also possibly a family member.

"The Bibb Co. book by Abrams states that the father of Aaron is David Campbell and wife Charity, David most certainly is the brother to Aaron. Aaron's Will filed in Bibb Co. Alabama.
'I Aron Campbell of the State and County aforesaid being of sound disposing mind and memory do make ordain and publish this to be my Last Will and Testament hereby revoking and making void all other wills by me at any time heretofore made.

"All Aaron's living daughters and their husbands contested the will and requested a jury to adjudicate. On the day set for the hearing, William Green Rasberry and his wife, Malonia Astoria Campbell Rasberry, requested that their names be removed as contestants to the will. This request was granted. The will stood as valid and the other sisters and their husbands had to pay all court costs."

"Martha Patsy Glascock Campbell, the widow of Aaron, left her property equally to the elder of two sons and the oldest two daughters.

It has been handed down through the family that Patsy Glascock Campbell told her progeny that they were of the Argyll Branch of the Campbell Clan."
