James Campbell
Chapter was organized October 29, 1952, making 2002 our 50th
anniversary year. The chapter
was named for the Scots ancestor on whose service the organizing Regent, Mrs.
Albert E. Hudspeth, joined. James Campbell was descended from Sir Colin Mohr Camp-bell
who was knighted in 1280. Sir Colin Mohr Camp-bell's son married Lady Mary
Bruce, sister of Robert, The Bruce.
The James Campbell
Chapter was one of the last chapters organized in time to have its membership
recorded in the Bell Tower at Valley Forge. The name of our Organizing
Regent and that of the Chapter are engraved on a plaque.
Three scholarships
have been established through the generosity of members.
A
C.A.R. Society, James Haynes was organized on March 16, 1958.
We welcome new
members and offer assistance on proof of lineage if needed.
At present, we
have 137 members. Of these, 10 are Junior members. We average about
45-50 members in attendance.
