Notes:
Peyton Campbell may have been born in North Carolina, according to the 1850 Dallas County, Alabama, census. Listed on the same page is A.F.G. Campbell, presumed to be his brother. A letter of transfer from his church at Catfish, Marion District, South Carolina, to Fulton, Dallas County, Alabama, was dated 13 November 1852. His name was given as LaFayette Campbell. At the time of the 1860 census, the family was living in Orrville District, Dallas County, Alabama. Peyton's occupation was listed as gin maker, and his age was given as 36, born in North Carolina. In 1870, Peyton Campbell was living in Cahaba, Alabama. He was a cotton gin maker. According to family tradition, the Campbells may have been from Hoboken, New Jersey. Also mentioned are Hudson or Bergen County, New Jersey, and the maiden name of Peyton's mother is given as Peyton (Paton, Patton, etc.). His name may have been Peter rather than Peyton, and the 1932 soldier's headstone application filed by a supposed descendant uses the name Patrick Lafayette Campbell. He was listed as Peyton in the 1880 census of Calera, Shelby County, Alabama. On 5 April 1881, Peyton L. Campbell made an application for relief for maimed Confederate soldiers in Shelby County, Alabama. The application states that he was shot in both legs at the Battle of Gettysburg while a member of Company F, 5th Alabama Infantry. In the book, "Company F, 5th Alabama Regiment, Dallas County, Alabama, 'Cahaba Rifles,' " P.L. Campbell's Civil War record is given as follows: P.L. Campbell, Pvt., enlisted 10 March 1862. Cahaba, AL, wounded and captured 1 Jul 1863 Gettysburg PA." There are no dates on his tombstone, which gives his name as P.L. Campbell and mentions his Civil War service. His grandson, Robert Clifton Campbell, is buried in the same cemetery. There is also a monument for P.L. Campbell at Summer Hill Baptist Church Cemetery on Highway 25 in Shelby County, Alabama. A letter in possession of the Bryan family from Edward M. Jackson, Catfish, Marion District, South Carolina, to W L. Barton and LaFayette Campbell, Fulton, Dallas County, Alabama, restores Campbell to the church. It also serves as a letter of dismissal and transfer to another church from the Baptist Church of Christ at Catfish. The 5th Alabama Infantry Regiment was organized at Montgomery, Alabama, on May 5, 1861, and fought through the war until it was surrendered at Appomattox Court House in April of 1865. It mustered a total of 1,719 men during the Civil War, of whom 300 were killed in action and 240 died of disease. At Gettysburg, where P.L. Campbell was wounded and taken prisoner, the regiment was at Oak Ridge on July 1 and at Culp's Hill on July 2 and 3. On July 4, the regiment moved to Seminary Ridge.
Litha Kilgore, in a letter to Lucy Lanham Bryan dated May 28, 1970, stated that Peyton Campbell's mother was a Patton.
