Rebecca Williams Campbell, daughter of Sarah and Amasa Ayars, was born in Cumberland county, N. J., Jan 18, 1823, and died at Walworth, Wis., Nov. 16, 1902, aged 79 years, 9 months and 28 days.
She, with her husband, Dennis Campbell, came to Walworth in 1853, bringing their membership from Marlboro, N. J. Between that time and 1865 they resided a few years at Edgerton, Wis., and at Rock River, but we think of her as resident and member here at Walworth for nearly fifty years.
Eight of her ten children are living. Sister Campbell was ever careful to teach them truth and show them the gospel plan of life. She was careful to find a good word for everybody and knew how to put in a word of encouragement for the young and old. In her days of health she was ever faithful to church service, and had an intelligent expression of her thought and purpose. She had for some time been looking forth to her coming rest with firm faith in the divine promises. M. G. S.
