The Campbell Quest: A Saga of Family and Fortune by Patrick C. MacCulloch (May 3
Does anyone by chance have access to this publication? I'm trying to identify the family my great-great-grandmother claimed to be connected to. Eliza Gibney Rutledge said that her mother was a Campbell, and that they were of the Campbells of Argyle.
I've found an Alexander Gibney and Jane Campbell of Donacavey who I believe are good candidates to have been her parents. They apparently had a son, Alexander Gibney, who went to Australia.
Eliza was born about 1809 (Co. Tyrone). Possibly connected to this family were a Hugh Gibney who married Catherine Campbell. Her brother, William (b. 1818) settled in Cass Co. Illinois. According to his biography, his father was Archibald Campbell married to Elizabeth Stewart (daughter of James Stewart).
Hugh and Catherine emigrated to Ontario in the 1850s as did Eliza Gibney Rutledge and her husband, William Rutledge.
Trying to find out if any of these people might be connected to the Campbells of Aughalane.
Thanks!
