- Your Comr. learning from the said Hugh Berry (no inventory having been returned to court) that he received in June 1835 of the Exo.r of Wm. Campbell dec.d of Augusta County Virginia, the sum of $512, it being said Jane Berrys share of the estate of the said Wm. Campbell dec.d That the said Jane Berrys estate was indebted to him in the sum of $450. as per voucher No. 1 herewith enclosed, which sum he retained. That the funeral and other expenses amounted to $11, and the he paid William Berry $12.60 (Voucher No. 2) leaving a balance of $38.40 on hand, which sum your Comr. thinks would be but a reasonable compensation to said admr. for his expense loss of time, and personal trouble in attending to be business of sd. estate.

Family
Image:Preliminary Family Tree of the Campbells of Augusta County.jpg A number of lines of Campbells in Old Augusta, especially on Beverley's Manor, trace their lineage to the sons of Duncan Campbell and Mary McCoy. Evidence that Duncan and Mary were actually their parents, has not come to hand, and given the issues associated with this couple, the connection may be apocryphal.
