  • Notes 
    • Norfleet writes: According to Margaret Campbell Pilcher, Mary Campbell married a certainCaptain William Ellison (Allison?).I have found little mention in the Virginia/Kentucky records of anyone named William Ellison.However, the Scotch-Irish used the names "Ellison" and "Allison" almost interchangeably.Therefore, William may have been the son of John Allison, who was part of the Allison/Campbell migration group, of which Mary's brother, Captain William Campbell (1748-1800), was a member.Circa 1784, William and Mary Ellison (Allison) may have migrated to Kentucky with the Campbells. On 09 November 1792, Governor Shelby commissioned a certain William Allison as a Captain in the 9th Regiment of the Fayette County militia.William's brother-in-law, Major John Morrison, was also in the 9th Regiment.
