The Clinton Eye Nov 22, 1951: C. D. Cameron Dies; Prominent Henry County Stockman and Farmer Moved To Clinton Three Years Ago; Fractured Hip Two Weeks Past - The worthy life of C. D. Cameron ended at 11:30 a.m. Monday, Nov 19, 1951 leaving his family and loved ones saddened by the separation but with only the happiest most comforting memories of this fine man whose long full life had been exemplary in every detail. Mr. Cameron had not been well the past two years, and the last day of October fell at his home on East Franklin Street, fracturing his hip. He was taken to the General hospital where he had been given every care, but his strength was so reduced and resistance to weakened that medical aid was of little avail. Cecil Dwight Cameron, son of Allen Delos and Mary Hine Cameron, was born May 28, 1872, seven miles northeast of Clinton. There he was reared with six brothers and sisters in the careful nurture of a devout Methodist home and with a love of the land and a skill with livestock that was destined to make him one of the leading agriculturists and Shorthorn breeders of Henry county. As a boy he attended the Lewis School and later went to Warrensburg where he studied at the old Normal. Early in life, too, he became a member of the Drakes Chapel congregation where his membership remained. He served his church in many capacities during the years being Sunday School superintendent, a steward and trustee, valued by the congregation, neighbors and friends for the fine and stalwart character he was, whose honor was above reproach and whose integrity was beyond question. His dealing with all men was fair and just and his word was authority and always kind. He was the type of man in whom the simple attribute of worth and true nobility of character flourished to full flower and he enjoyed the respect and love of all who knew him. Mr. Cameron lost his father as a boy of 12 and on his young shoulders fell the responsibility of managing the farm and looking after the family. He was never known to slight a hard task in fact, he embraced it, and proved himself to be a genius with livestock and the land. Fine horses were his interest, second only to the Shorthorn cattle he raised, and success crowned his effort. Dec 28, 1898 Miss Jessie Hazard became his wife and they established their home just across the road from her husband's birthplace. Four sons were born to their happy union. Hine, now of Maryville; Howard, Kansas City, John, Clay Center Kan.; and Dwight the only one who has his father's love for farming. He now resides near the old home. The sons survive with their mother. Also five grandchildren, who were Mr. Cameron's great comfort and pleasure. Funeral services will be Wednesday afternoon at Drakes Chapel. The body will be laid to rest in Drake's Chapel Cemetery.

Daily Democrat, Clinton MO, Jun 2 2000 - Ethel Audra Cameron, 89, died on May 24, 2000, at Golden Valley Hospital, Clinton. She was born September 20, 1910, in Henry County, the daughter of Homer Webster and Grace Maude Combs Burch. After she graduated from Clinton High School in 1929 and completed teacher's training, she taught in several one-room country schools. She liked to remind her family how she walked through the snow for miles, built the fire in the wood stove to warm the school room, did all the janitor work and taught eight grades for $35 a month. In later years, it wasn't unusual for Ethel to receive visits and phone calls from former pupils. In 1936, Ethel retired from teaching and married Allen Dwight Cameron. To this union one daughter, Maril Rae was born. Ethel was a natural born homemaker and as long as she was able she put on a big garden, canned all summer, made nice clothes for herself and Maril, and kept a spotless house. Religion was very important to her. She was active in WSCS - now UMW. She held a district office and was willing to help in any way. After moving to Clinton in 1960, she joined the Junior Poly Credo Bible Club. The friends she had in both organizations were special to her. She attended Drakes Chapel Methodist Church her entire life and never wanted to miss a Sunday. After Dwight stopped driving she was always so happy when Susan, Renee or Crystal would drive them to church. Even though she had braces on her legs and used a walker, she was always ready to go to Drakes Chapel. Ethel was so proud of her grandchildren. When Troy and Tracy would visit her as children she played with them for hours and rarely missed sending them home with homemade cookies. Later she loved seeing her great great-granddaughters. She insisted on having them placed in her lap so she could hug them and read stories. She kept little books in a drawer by her chair just for that purpose. In the last few years, caregivers Lorraine Rattiff, Susan Ebeling (Kemper), Sharon Camden, Anita Slocum, Jane Greer, Louise Johnson and Cindy Dodd added sunshine to her life. After Dwight's death in July 1999, Ethel decided to move to Clinton Residential Care Center. She loved it there and made many friends. She continued to attend church regularly, accompanied by caregivers Lorraine, Jane, Louise and Cindy. However, she reached the point where she couldn't walk any longer, so she moved to Clinton Healthcare in February 2000. Preceding her in death were her parents; a brother, Marvin Burch, and her husband, Dwight. She is survived by a daughter and son-in-law, Maril and Larry Norcross, Blairstown; two grandsons, Troy Norcross, Campbell, California, and Tracy Norcross and wife Lori, St. Joseph; three great-granddaughters, Abby, Madeline and Olivia Norcross, St. Joseph; plus a host of other relatives and friends.

Clinton MO - Allie W. Campbell died at his home on North Main Street at 12:40 a.m. Sunday, aged 43, at the zenith of manhood, loved and respected, taken in his prime from his wife and beautiful children - Allison near eight, whom a merciful providence snatched from almost certain death from an accident last spring, and the pretty little 2-year old Helen who will never realize a father's love and care. The loss also falls heavily on his foster sister Mrs. Hettie Treadway, a widow to whom he was caretaker for herself and the children for 12 years. Ernie Campbell, an only brother is cashier for the Missouri Pacific Shops at Sedalia. Allie was born in Ripley, Ohio and came with his parents, who went to the better land 12 years ago, and foster sister, who died about four years ago, and located on a farm near Ladue, but they have lived in Clinton 30 years. He married Mary Allison October 14, 1897. They have legions of social friends and were much in demand for their rare musical talents. His illness had been making slow and insidious progress, for months hardly noticed by his nearest friends, as he looked well. About one month ago, he yielded to the solicitation of his friends and accompanied John Hinkle and wife to their home in New Mexico but grew worse and came home to die. Mr. Campbell was a Mason, Elk, K.P. and Modern Woodman and his funeral, at the Baptist Church, was one of the largest ever held in Clinton.

Clinton Eye, Sep 1932 - Benjamin Alexander Campbell passed away at his apartment in the South Shore Country Club, in Chicago, September (note: believe it should be August) 24, after an illness of two weeks. He underwent an operation nearly a year ago for a malignant condition. Throughout the weary days of sickness he was cared for by Miss Florence Clark, who not only gave him the care of a registered nurse but that of a relative, kindly and considerate of his every need, and to whom the other surviving relatives are grateful. Benjamin Campbell was the second son of the late Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Campbell. He was born in Mt. Sterling, Ill., August 7, 1874, and came with his parents to Missouri. He grew to splendid manhood in Henry county, lived on the parental farm here, 4 miles east of Clinton, attended the public schools and the old Lamkin academy in Clinton. He made splendid progress in his education, attended the University of Chicago and graduated in law. Several years he practiced general law in Chicago then became the legal advisor for the Ludowici Celeabon Imperial Tile Roofing Company. He served in this capacity for more than a quarter of a century. In addition to his profession as attorney, Mr. Campbell filled many niches in social organizations. He, with his pleasant and compelling personality, was in demand for he made the study of the highest arts, music, literature, etc., a vital part of his life and was a member of the Chicago Bar Association; Chicago Historical Society; Chicago Council on Foreign Relations and the Isaac Walton League. He was a 32nd. degree Scottish Rite Mason, and belonged to the Medinah Temple Shrine, also was past patron of the Order of the Eastern Star. He held a life membership in the Chicago Art Institute. June 15, 1904, Benjamin Campbell married Pearl Cheatham, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Claude Cheatham east of Clinton, and for twenty years had a happy married life, then she was carried to the great Beyond in 1924. The death of his wife was, to him, a crushing blow. They were sweethearts to the end, and while Ben Campbell bore his great sorrow in silence, his close friends knew of his great grief. He lived at the South Shore Country Club, one of the most beautiful club houses in the world. Here he was surrounded by beautiful works of art, flowers and trees, all of which he loved. He spent many hours in the library, for he was a great reader. He bought and read many books and passed them on to his family and friends with many of his own comments written on the margins, so that it added to one's pleasure to read a book he had read. He was an interesting conversationalist because he was so well informed and broad in his views. He possessed a ready wit that was delightful, because it was never caustic or biting. He was a genial host and enjoyed entertaining his many friends. He was always thoughtful and considerate of others. His remarks were always kind. He was in every sense a Christian gentleman. People who honored Ben Campbell, honored themselves. Ben Campbell was a brilliant and highly successful lawyer. His work as a lawyer took him into many parts of the United States so that he was familiar not only with the conditions existing in the great city of Chicago, but also knew of his own country. Mr. Campbell spent last winter in Florida in hope of aiding his physical recovery, and it seemed that he imbibed some of its eternal sunshine into his spirit which he shared with a great number of friends who, in his last illness, showed their appreciation of him in the mass of lowers ever present in his room. His lips spoke jestingly, despite the fact that he knew his life on earth was to be but a short time, and never a moment did he let relatives know that he knew this. In May he returned to Chicago and in June came to visit his sisters here, and his brother in Sedalia, but on account of the extreme heat, had to return to his home. Every effort was made to notify a brother in California of Mr. Campbell's serious condition, but he was on an automobile tour and could not be located. Dr. Campbell of Sedalia, was at his brother's bedside part of the time. A brief funeral service was conducted in Chicago before Mrs. J. D. Burris, who had been there the last two weeks previous to his death, returned to Clinton, bringing the body of her brother. Services were conducted Friday afternoon at the Christian church and interment made in Englewood cemetery with a Masonic ceremony. The deceased leaves two brothers and two sisters, Lee Campbell, an architect in Los Angeles, Cal.; Dr. A. J. Campbell, Sedalia; Mrs. John D. Burris and Mrs. Uel Shobe of Clinton. One brother Dr. W. R. Campbell died in 1923.

Clinton Eye, Clinton, MO, Sep 17 1936 - Frank Campbell died after a few minutes illness at his home at 731 East Lincoln Street at 7:15 am Monday. He arose as usual at five, built a fire and put water on the stove for coffee. A few minutes later his wife heard him breathing heavily and complaining of illness. A doctor was summoned at once, who started to call another doctor, but Mr. Campbell had passed to life eternal. Mr. Campbells daughter Zeta, now Mrs. Sidney Montgomery, and her husband, of Kansas City, were both at the home and gave all assistance they could to ease this beloved fathers last minutes as did a son, Donald, who lives at home. Though he had had a sick spell in January from which he had never fully recovered, Mr. Campbell had done a full days work each day all spring and summer. Sunday, Mr. Campbell attended Pioneer Day services at the Baptist church, both morning and evening and kept his wife laughing on the way home with his Irish wit, so they had had no indication of how near the Death Angel was hovering. Frank Campbell, born December 26, 1869, on a farm three-fourths mile southeast of Coal, was united in marriage to Miss Grace Smith, March 13, 1898, by the justice of the peace at Coal, though they had planned to go to Uncle Billy Briggs but the preachers wife died so they couldn't go there. A wedding dinner was served at the home of the brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. R. Smith, and an infair (sic) dinner the next day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Pat Deery, parents of Mr. Campbell. Mr. and Mrs. Campbell went to housekeeping on a farm two and a half miles southeast of Coal where they lived until 1912, then moved to Clinton. Here, he went into a grocery business in partnership with Joe Julian in a building on North Main Street, where he continued two years. Since, then, Mr. Campbell specialized in gardening, always having the earliest and most prolific garden in the neighborhood and delighting in having the first vegetables in the spring and the latest in the fall, all of which he was ever generous in sharing with neighbors and friends. Both of his parents were born and raised in Ireland, but were married after coming to the United States, returning to Ireland for their honeymoon. From them, Mr. Campbell inherited a ready wit, a jolly disposition that refused to accept misfortunes but rallied immediately from every adverse blow that Fate aimed at him. He enjoyed his wife and children and each of them was as good-natured and filled brimful of good spirits as he was, as together they had a life full of laughter. Generosity and a kindness of heart, together with a jest and merry word for all characterized Mr. Campbell. His Christianity was sincere and a fundamental part of his life, as he joined the Good Hope Church when he was converted in 1910 and attended church and Sunday school regularly. His fine principles of Christian living and righteousness were instilled in his children, of whom he was the father of 12. Through them, he gave abundantly to the nation, for such fine characters are the backbone of the countrys progress. His widow has eight children to comfort her: Clyde, Muskegon, Mich.; Mrs. M Parks (Ruth), Bismarck, N. Dak.; Mrs. Sidney Montgomery (Zeta), Kansas City; Mrs. Jack Willard (Hazel), Downs, Kans.; Harl Campbell, Lexington, who is assistant manager in a Montgomery Ward store; Mrs. B.J. Caughell (Audra), Britton, Okla.; Carl and Donald, Clinton. A son, Earl, and daughter Edra (sic) died in 1930, and another little daughter, Pat, before that. Grandchildren are Joe and Paul Parks, Bismarck; Carol, Patty, and Eugenia Grace Caughell, Britton; Jack and Joe Willard, Downs; Patsy Campbell, Muskegon; Bobby Montgomery, Kansas City; Dixie and Gene Campbell, Clinton, all of whom loved and adored their granddad and were the delight of his heart. Mr. Campbell also leaves two brothers, John Campbell, Porterville, Calif., and Edward, Letcher, S. Dak. Funeral services were conducted Wednesday at the First Baptist Church in Clinton. Burial was in Good Hope cemetery beside his relatives.

Henry County Democrat, Clinton MO, Mar 18 1880 - From Mr. A. J. Baker, who was in Clinton yesterday, the Democrat learns of a sad and lamentable accident, resulting in the death of an old and highly respected citizen. Monday evening, Mr. Frank Campbell, who resided on his farm about one-half mile from Colesburg, this county, was kicked in the stomach by a cow while engaged in milking. Mr. Campbell did not regard the kick as serious, but finished his milking and feeding. When he returned to his home he told his wife what had occurred, and soon began to vomit blood and complain of severe pains. These continued at close intervals and seemed to become gradually more prostrating. Becoming alarmed, Mrs. Campbell, sent for Dr. Brumfield without the knowledge of her husband. The Doctor administered such medicine as he believed the patient required, and called probably the third time. Yesterday he had left the house only about half hour before Mr. Campbell's death, as had also Messrs. Turner and Garrett, his neighbors. A few minutes before noon, Mr. Campbell called his wife and asked: "What is the matter with me?" and soon died. The sad information was at once sent to his neighbors, and when Mr. Baker reached the house he had been preceded by Messrs. Hall and Garrett. Mr. John Maginnis accompanied Mr. Baker to Clinton yesterday evening, where they procured a coffin and burial clothing. No post mortem examination was made, but it is presumed death resulted from rupture caused by the kick. The deceased was a native of Ireland and settled on his farm about 1856. About ten or twelve years ago he went to Ohio where he was married. He was industrious, straight forward in business, a kind neighbor and dutiful husband. He leaves a wife and five children to mourn his sudden death. The family have no relatives in the county. The remains were interred today.

For a number of months his health has been failing, although until the past several weeks he was up and about his home, and occasionally came to town for a brief stay with some members of his family. When his last illness came it was apparent from the start that he not recover. He suffered greatly, and no more patient soul ever bore with ruthless pain. He was ready and eager to leave the world that had lost its sweetness when his beloved companion died, and often expressed the wish to join her in that land where death comes not, and the pain and infirmities of life are forever laid aside. Joseph A. Campbell was born April 28 1853, in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. He was married to Martha Vincent on January 1, 1874 in Fayette County, Ohio.

Little Pat has been spared the disappointments and disillusionment's that come to all those who fight the battle of life through. He has been allowed to step from unconsciousness of pain, suffering and sorrow here into the land of everlasting love to be in the presence of the Father who Himself is Love, where such as little Pat make up the kingdom of heaven. He has been loaned to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Campbell since April 9, 1922. He was exceptionally bright and the older brothers and sisters could wish no greater pleasure than to take little Pat with them. Only the Comforter can ease up the pain in their hearts. This baby went to Heaven at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, being ill only two days with membranous croup. Anti-toxin and all medical skill and love was used in the fight for the life.

CAMPBELL, Martha VINCENT

d: 1934
bur: Raymore Cemetery, Raymore, Cass Co, MO
Raymore MO - Mrs. Joseph A. Campbell passed away suddenly at the family home south of Raymore last Friday afternoon. Her death was a shock to her family and friends as she had apparently recovered from a critical illness suffered early in the spring. On the day of her death she apparently was as well as usual and her daughter Miss Ruth and her grandson Joe Cook went in the city where they spent the day shopping. On there return they found her suffering intensely with the heat as she had gone to the strawberry patch and gathered berries for the evening meal, thinking to have the meal prepared by the time her daughter came home. Mrs. Campbell was seated on the porch when her daughter and grandson returned and the daughter left her there and went about the evening work. When supper was ready she went to the porch to call her mother and found Mrs. Campbell was not there, going to her mothers bedroom, Miss Campbell found her mother sitting in a chair dead. Death had come quickly and painlessly. The passing of Mrs. Campbell marked the close of a long and useful life. She was born January 26, 1852 in Fayette County, Ohio and at the time of her death was aged 82 years, 4 months, 5 days. She was the youngest and last child of Stephen and Jemmina Vincent. Her girlhood was spent in the home of her parents where she lived the normal life of such a girl of that period, receiving such education as her time and community afforded. The service of her life was preeminently that of a mother in the home. On January 1 1874 she was married in her native county to Joseph A. Campbell with whom she shared the joys and sorrows of life for more than sixty years. To them were born 10 children, all of who lived to maturity. Two daughters Mrs. Anna Hodkins and Mrs. Ethel Cook preceded there mother in death. The children surviving are: Jesse, Fran and Arch all of Kansas City, Bert of Deepwater, Mrs. Lizzie Hodkins of Independence, Mrs. Lida Carrothers of Elk City, Oklahoma and Miss Ruth and John of the home. Besides rearing her large family Mrs. Campbell had the rearing of two grandchildren, Denzil and Joe Cook, whose mother died when they were very young. To them she was a real mother. Mrs. Campbell was a early settler in this community. She and her husband came to this community fifty years ago and lived here ever since, partaking of the varying conditions of life. Here most of her children were born and grew to maturity. Mrs. Campbell no doubt had her share of disappointment and pain, but her nature grew and sweetened with the years. When she was in the hospital for a major operation several years ago she was known as the "sweet faced, white haired lady". Mrs. Campbell became a Christian early in life. Soon after coming to Raymore she and her husband united with the Presbyterian Church, later transferring their membership to the United Brethren Church, which has been their church home for 35 years. During these years none was more faithful to their church as Mrs. Campbell. All who knew her loved her, it was a privilege to be her friend and the community was enriched by the richness of her life. The entire community mourns the loss of this good woman, but the chief mourner is her husband of sixty years who survives her. She was the grandmother of twenty-seven and the great-grandmother of ten, all of whom are living. A mother of Israel, indeed! The funeral service was held at the united Brethren Church in the presence of a large crowd of sorrowing relatives and friends, Sunday afternoon. The pallbearers were six grandsons, Maurice Hodkins, Harlie Hodkins, Lee Hodkins, Harold Hodkins, J.C. Campbell, and Irwin Campbell. Burial was in the family plot in Raymore Cemetery.

Windsor, Sep 28 1906 - Universally Deplored - Henry Cannon meets with accident at Fair Grounds, died Saturday morning. Friday afternoon's fair was marred to a great extent and a pall of sorrow and gloom cast over the merrymakers by the sad accident which befell Henry Cannon, an aged and highly respected resident of Roseland vicinity - an accident deeply regretted by one and all, deplorable and most unfortunate in the extreme, resulting in his death Saturday morning. Mr. Cannon was old and crippled from rheumatism, and possibly tired from standing, sat down on the track of the Shoot-the-Chutes, near the water's edge. The boats were running regularly, one having ascended not over a minute previous. At the top of the chutes is a lever to hold and start the boats, and when the boat is up, the view of the track below is partially hidden, and not until the boat had started down in rapid plunge did those in the boat notice Mr. Cannon on the track. All effort to warn him of impending danger was fruitless, as the old gentleman was partially deaf and the noise around too great for him to hear the frantic outcries. The impact was frightful and and as one gentleman pictured it, he was shot into the lake like a ball from a bat, being forced between the track and the landing through a space scarcely wide enough for a man to edge through at best, the boat striking him with tremendous force in the left shoulder and side. He was rescued quickly as possible, but apparently utterly lifeless for several minutes. Dr. Blackmore, fortunately, was close by and soon had him partially restored to consciousness, but it is thought the old gentleman never realized what hit him or the cause of his suffering, complaining only of inward pain. He was taken to the house of his brother, N. B. Cannon, on East Main Street, and all the skill and tender, loving hands could do was done for him, but without avail, passing away at 5 o'clock Saturday morning. Mr. Cannon was a bachelor, in his 70th year, a brother of "Pet", Arthur and Dallas Cannon and lived with his sister, Miss Almira Cannon. The funeral was held at Mt. Olivet Church, Sunday, burial in the church cemetery. The funeral was preached by Rev. Jenkins and is said to have been with one exception, that of Billie Gray, the most largely attended of any ever held at Mt. Olivet. In this truly unfortunate and deeply regretted death, Windsor and the entire community are alike aggrieved, would that it could be undone and the kind old gentleman restored to life and to his sorrowing relatives and friends. - Obituary: Brother J. H. Cannon was born in Graves County, Kentucky on Oct. 16th, 1837; came to Henry County, Missouri in 1839, where he remained until death. In 1854 his father died, leaving on him the dependence of the family. He joined the Mt. Olivet Church in 1859, died September 22nd, 1906. Brother Cannon lived a consistent Christian life and was one of the pillars of the church to which he belonged. He was regularly in attendance at the house of God, has always been honest in his dealings with his fellowmen and was the idol of his brother and sister. He was their counselor and brother in deed. He was highly honored by the members of his church and community. He leaves to mourn their loss, four brothers and one sister.
