WILLIAM CAMPBELL OF WESTER KAMES
Genealogy
Biographical Summary
William engaged in the rebellion in 1685 of the Duke of Monmouth and after its disastrous collapse he fled to Londonderry, Ireland. He signed the address of loyalty to William and Mary, was appointed Lieut. Col. in their army, and his heroic part in the defence of Londonderry in 1689 caused the poet who commemorated that famous siege to describe him as the "brave Campbell."
Went to Ireland in 1685, and then on to America in 1728
