James Campbell Chapter was organized October 29, 1952, more than 60
years ago. This chapter was named for the Scots ancestor on whose service the
organizing Regent, Mrs. Albert E. Hudspeth, joined DAR. James Campbell was
descended from Sir Colin Mohr Campbell who was knighted in 1280. Sir Colin Mohr
Campbell'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 for proof of lineage, if
needed.
Our membership numbers more than 160, including several junior
members. We average about 45-50 members at regular meetings.
