Surname:
FERGUSON and CAMPBELL
My name is Thomas Campbell. I reside in New Jersey, USA. I am currently
doing my family history. My great-great grandfather, Duncan CAMPBELL
from Scotland married Margaret FERGUSON, also of Scotland. She was
probably born around 1830-1843. She gave birth to a son, Colin D.
CAMPBELL in January 1861 in the state of Illinois, USA. I am seeking
any info regarding Duncan and Margaret FERGUSON CAMPBELL.

brothers Jack, Jim and Bill, and sisters, Nelly FERGUSON-who married
Otto WESTPHAL, Margaret FERGUSON-who married Frank CHRISTIAN and

Surname:

CASPER FERGUSON
I am his cousin. I have been trying to locate him since he disappeared from the
family screen back in 1962. He had lived and worked for the railroad in Rockord,
Ill. His father's family was probably from Alabama. He had a sister named
Kathryn. He was a veteran of WWII.

Surname:
FERGUSON
I'm very new to this process but would like to find out more about my
grandfather and grandmother and their line. My limited knowledge of
grandad and grandmother, Miles Henry FERGUSON and Kathyn FERGUSON,
was that they lived in Morgan Co. KY. I believe grandmother's maiden
name was also FERGUSON. They had 8 children, at least four(possibly more)
of which were born in Morgan Co.; my fathe William Henry (DOB 11/20/94),
Luther, Lester, Elizabeth, James R., Nettie, Marvin and Ann. They moved to
the Springfield, IL area (probably Williamsville) possibly in the early 1900s.
Dad moved to Iowa (Tama County/Black Hawk Co.) in the 1915-1916 era and
married Mom on February 14, 1917.
Any information will be geatly appreciated.

Surname:
FERGUSON, SANDUSKY and BRISCOE
I have two FERGUSON gentlemen who I believe may be brothers, but
I need more info. to establish this connection. Here is what I have: William
FERGUSON was b. 2/6/1798 in KY,m. Elleanor (a/k/a Ellen or Eleanor)
SANDUSKY on 9/14/1826 in Washington Co. KY. Henry FERGUSON was
b. 11/21/1794 in KY, m. Mary "Polly" BRISCOE on 4/8/1816 in Washington
Co., KY. There is some belief that Henry's father's name was William.
William (b. 1798 KY) and his wife, Ellen SANDUSKY, moved to McDonough
Co., IL.This is right next to Pike Co., IL. which is where Henry FERGUSON
an his wife, Polly BRISCOE, moved to. Both families raised their children in
those counties. I have the estate settlement of William, and it mentions no
kin other than wife, children and orphaned granchildren.
If anyone has any information that might help link these two as brothers
(or anything; cousins; whatever), or any info. about the kin of either Wm.
or Henry, I'd very much appreciate same, and will be glad to share what
I have, as well.
