  • Notes 
    • James is believed to have married in Westmoreland, in 1766, Catherine Herring, a widow. By 1772, he was designed 'of Kendal', a Hanover plantation belonging to his brother John of New Hope, and he was active in the parish for at least the next eight years. Unusually, though, no baptisms for any children of a James Campbell were recorded in Hanover nor, indeed, in Westmoreland or St. Elizabeth between 1766 and 1780. His brother bequeathed Kendal to him in 1802.

      Alastair Campbell shows Alexander Campbell of Copse as the grandson of Colin of New Hope but Peter Dickson feels strongly that this is not the case.
