[Anonymous]

has anyone found any information during their searches re a Donald Campbell born about 1900 in Wick and emigrated to Canada in 1921?

I have some information and photos of a Donald Campbell, son of Hugh, mason. Donald married Barbara Duncan ca. 1900 and may have immigrated to Canada or the USA. They had two sons, Hugh and Jack. Jack and his mother sailed to either Canada or the USA. Is this the family you mean?

I have a Donald Campbell b. 28th October 1893 in Thurso, to John Campbell & Janet Bremner. He went on to marry Catherine Macaskill on 10th March 1916 in Bower. His occupation is stated as being a private chauffeur if that is any help. He could have possible emigrated to Canada.

There is a gravestone in Bower Cemetery which reads as follow
"In loving memory of Catherine McAskill born 14th Dec.1887, died 17th Aug 1966, wife of Donald Campbell and the above Donald Campbell, born 28th Oct 1898 died 21st Dec 1968 and their sons Morven and Dennis killed in action 1939 - 1945. Rest in Peace."
