HON. JOHN PEIRCE CAMPBELL, JR., was born on the 8th day of December, 
1820, in Christian County, Ky., and is the son of John Peirce Campbell, 
a sketch of whom appears elsewhere in this work.  He received a thorough 
education, mainly in the academy of his native county, under James D. 
Rumsey.  At the age of eighteen he began the study of law in the office 
of Joseph B. Crockett, and three years subsequently entered upon the 
practice of his profession at Lexington, Fayette Co., Mo.  After nine 
years of successful practice in that State he returned to Hopkinsville, 
and has since engaged in agricultural pursuits.  In 1848 he was elected 
to the lower house of the Missouri Legislature; as re-elected in 1850; 
and after returning to Kentucky was elected to Congress in 1855, 
declining re-election at the close of the term.  In politics he was 
associated with the Whig party until its dissolution; and since the war 
has been identified with the Democracy, taking an active part in the 
political contests.  He is a member of the Baptist Church, and freely 
gives his means and influence to the works of his church, and towards 
the advancement of every good cause in his community; and is one of the 
most substantial and valuable men of Christian County.  He was twice 
made President of the Henderson & Nashville Railroad, serving in that 
capacity for more than six years.  Mr. Campbell was married, in 1856, to 
Miss Mary B. Faulkner, daughter of Charles J. Faulkner, of Martinsburg, 
Va.  They have but one living child - a son who bears his father's name.
