Research Notes.

These notes appear in footnotes in the throughout the geneology report. What follows is more detailed information regarding where the information shown in the report was obtained.

I can't vouch 100% for my sources - much of this was researched by now passed-away relatives (whom I never met) as well as collaborations with fellow researchers on the internet.

In my notation, the initials CR relate to my observations and findings. The initials EC stand for Euginia Campbell, a great-great aunt and relate to her findings. JD stands for Jacob Dillard, whom is a relative, but I don't know what relation! He helped Eugenia with her research.

If anything you find here looks familiar, noteworthy, or incorrect, please feel free to contact me via email. I am also interested in any additions to any of this information (including new sources).
