FRANCIS MARION CAMPBELL of Springfield, clerk of the Circuit Court, son of
George P. and Lucy (Martin) Campbell, was educated in the common schools
of Washington County and in Texas, Kentucky, his last preceptor being
James F. Rhinefort.  After completing his education he was a teacher in
the district schools in different parts of Kentucky for thirteen years,
and at the expiration of that time he returned to his native county and
engaged in farming.  
     In 1884 he was elected sheriff by the people of Washington County,
and was re-elected in 1888.  He then bought a half interest in the
flouring mills in operation at Springfield, and held the position of
secretary and treasurer of the mills until 1892, when he was elected to
his present position as clerk of the Circuit Court.  He is a director in
the First National Bank of Springfield, and still retains his interest in
the flouring mills, his eldest son giving his personal attention to that
business.  Mr. Campbell is a member of the Baptist Church, and in politics
is a Democrat.  He still owns the old Campbell homestead and cherishes a
laudable sentiment in regard to its preservation.
	Mr. Campbell was married in 1865 to Fannie Campbell, daughter of

time of her death, September 14, 1890.  She is interred in the old family
burying ground.  Her eight children are all living: Arthur, Della, Lulie

     George P. Campbell (father), son of Nathaniel and Sallie (Pettit)
Campbell, was born June 10, 1806; came from Ft. Wayne County, Virginia, in
1812, when only six years of age, and lived in Shelby County, Kentucky;
was educated in the common schools of that county, and after leaving
school, engaged in farming and stock raising in Washington County.  He was
a member of the Baptist Church and his political affiliations were with
the Democratic party.
     He married, in 1830, Lucy Martin, daughter of Andrew and Susan Martin
of Boyle County.  She was born in Boyle County, Kentucky, in 1813, and
educated in the public schools of that county, and was a member of the
Baptist Church.  They had nine children, six of whom are living:  Micajah,
deceased; Sarah, now Mrs. Elliott of Washington County; W. T. Campbell,
