Web site, via the NEGenWeb Project Resource Center: Among the well-known pioneers of Nance county who have for many years worked hard to accumulate a competence, and when this has been accomplished, has retired to make way for others, we mention the gentleman above, who is now enjoying the fruits of an honorable and successful career. He is now a resident of Fullerton, where he owns a beautiful home and enjoys the esteem and friendship of a large number of congenial people. Archibald S. Campbell was born in Greene county, Tennessee, May 26, 1836, and is the second in order of birth in a family of ten children in the family of Adam and Susannah Campbell, who were natives of that state, and spent their entire lives there, the former dying in his sixty-ninth year and the mother at the age of sixty-two, at the old homestead. Our subject lived in his home county until he was twenty-one years of age, receiving his education there, and following farming during this time. He was married there to Miss Nancy Jones at the home of her parents, on September 24, 1854, her parents being also life residents of Greene county. The newly-married pair settled on a farm, and remained in that vicinity for three years, then, with their little son, Landon W., left the county, traveling overland by team and wagon to Atchison county, Missouri, where they located on a tract of unimproved land, and began to make a home for themselves. This they operated up to the spring of 1883, at that time coming to Nance county, Nebraska, which was still a thinly-settled region. Mr. Campbell purchased land in both Boone and Nance counties, engaged in the stock business, raising and shipping cattle, etc., and also farmed considerable land. During those early years, he at different times owned and operated large tracts of land, and also handled real estate extensively, doing a loan business throughout the section, and became especially well known to the non-resident property owners, handling a great deal of business by reason of his prompt attention to their wants, and having a high reputation for honesty and integrity. At one time Mr. Campbell owned about 1800 acres of land in Nance, Boone and Greeley counties, but as it advanced in value, he sold until at the present time he owns three hundred and twenty acres in Nance county, and the same amount in Thomas county, Kansas. In 1893, Mr. Campbell moved to Fullerton, purchasing some land just inside of the city limits, on which he built a fine home, which is situated on a high spot near the outskirts of Fullerton, giving a splendid view of Loup river valley and from which the entire town can be seen. This is one of the most beautiful locations in the town, having elegant trees, fine lawns, and is one of the show places of Fullerton. During the year 1862, Mr. Campbell lived in Omaha, and well remembers the early days of Nebraska, becoming familiar with the exact conditions then existing relative to land values, the opportunities afforded settlers in the region, etc. At that time John I. Redick, of Omaha, offered our subject sixty acres of well improved land lying within what is now the town site of that place, on the basis of fifteen dollars per acre, and this land is at the present time valued at $4,000 a front foot. Mr. and Mrs. Campbell have had nine children, eight. of whom are still living, namely: Landon W., married, father of two children, and residing at Oberlin, Ohio; Martha Susannah, wife of Dr. I. C. Murphy, of Fullerton; William A. T., married, father of two children, living in Seattle, Washington; Jacob N., married, having a family of six children, also living in Fullerton; Mary Helen, wife of G. H. Ellsworth, two children, they living in Iowa City, Iowa; John B., married five daughters, living in Nance county; Robert A., of Wenatchee Valley, Washington, and Albert B., of Seattle, Washington. The family is prominently known throughout the region and have been identified with its social life during their residence here. Mr. and Mrs. Campbell are members of. the Presbyterian church, and at the present time, Mr. Campbell is an elder of the church.
