Excerpt from In Remembrance of the West Family Reunion: Ionia, Michigan, August 12-13, 1912 Alexander Campbell was a Scot, as will testify any body who ever heard him talk, and he was a hielanman, too, and a first cousin of the Mary Campbell who loved the poet Burns and who is known to the world as High land Mary. The surroundings of his early life are there fore suggestive of warring clans, skirling pipes, kidnapped brides, and secret trysts° but whatever 23of romance there may have been in his courtship of his Highland Mary is lost to view in the'mists of gathering years. We know, however, that Alexander Campbell and Mary Patterson were married in Knapdale, February 10, 1818.
