Notes

Journal of The Clan Campbell, Vol. 28 No. 4, Autumn 2001. Silas McCaslin doucument

Phil Norfleet writes:

The name "Grace" comes from the Latin and means "graceful" or "lovely." In French the name is rendered as "Grazielle." In Scotland the name is frequently rendered as "Grissell," a variation on the French pronounciation and spelling.

In my research among the 18th century records of Orange and Augusta County VA, I have never seen the name "Grace (or Grissell) Campbell" or "Grace Hay" appear. Accordingly, I am unable to provide any documentary verification as to Grace Hay's existence as the wife of John Campbell (d. 1741).

(Note - McCaslin document does mention Grizle Hay)

If you have a DNA test and a family tree in the form of a GEDCOM please consider a submission to the Project so we can obtain the widest coverage possible for Campbell related lineages.

Also if you have time to volunteer, we are seeking people to help us verify and correct submissions, generally date formats, place name conventions, sources citations etc. The Project also needs help at Wikitree. If interested just use the contact form and let us know!

A clan is a group of people united by actual or perceived kinship or descent. Little doubt there was a progenitor who was first known as “Cam Beul”. Eventually one of the families associated with that name would become the Chiefs of the Clan. A clan is a group of people united by actual or perceived kinship or descent.

However, it should be clear from the beginning of our research that no one family has every made up a “clan”.
