      Campbell, Sir George (1824 - 1892) civilian and Lieutenant Governor of Bengal (1871-1874). Son of Sir George Campbell of Edenwood (formerly a member of the east india company's Medical Service) and educated at the Edinburgh New Academy and Haileybury, George Campbell joined the Bengal Civil Service in 1842. But until he was appointed the Lieutenant Governor of Bengal, he seldom served in the province except on two occasions: a judge of the Calcutta High Court (1863-66) and president of the Orissa Famine Commission (1866-67). During his service career he served in various capacities in the North West Provinces, Punjab and Oudh.
