James N. D. Campbell, justice of the peace, was born in Perry County, Tenn., October 13, 1837, and is a son of William

and Nancy (Dornell) Campbell, natives of the same State. After his marriage the father lived in Tennessee some years,

but in March, 1840, located in Franklin County, Ark., and until his death farmed in Franklin County. He was a good

sportsman, and shot many deer, turkeys and wild game. His death occurred April 8, 1852. He was one of the first settlers

of Mountain Township, moving here from Mulberry Valley in 1845, and himself and one neighbor were the only voters in the

township at one time during its early history. Our subject has lived in Franklin County since two years of age, his early

life being passed upon his father's farm. In the spring of 1861 he enlisted in the State troops, and after these were

disbanded joined the regular Confederate army. He served as orderly-sergeant of the Fifteenth Arkansas Infantry until the

surrender of Vicksburg, July 4, 1863, after which he returned home. He participated in the two engagements at Corinth, the

siege of Vicksburg, and several skirmishes. Since the war he has been engaged in farming with success. In 1874 he was

elected justice of the peace, which office he filled six consecutive terms, and in 1882 was appointed postmaster of Floury

Post-office, serving in that capacity two years. He has often been a delegate to the County Democratic Convention, and

wields considerable political power in the county. December 26, 1861, he was married in Johnson County to Martha Taylor,

who was born in Madison County, Ark., and is a daughter of one of the early settlers of the State, who came from Illinois.

Mr. and Mrs. Campbell have lost four children in infancy, but have eight now living: Pleasant L., married; Alonzo, married;

Mary, wife of A. Short; Nancy A., wife of William Hughes; William W., Augustus D., Amanda L. and Catherine. Mr. Campbell's

farm contains eighty acres, sixty-five of which are cleared, and it is situated fifteen miles north of Ozark. (SOURCE:
