Mary Campbell (colonial settler) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mary Campbell (colonial settler)
Mary Campbell (later Mary Campbell Willford) was an American colonial settler, taken captive as a child by Native Americans during the French and Indian War. Later rescued, she is believed to have been the first white child to travel to the Western Reserve. ==Early life== Campbell was born in 1747 or 1748.〔Pennsylvania Gazette, October 1764〕 According to oral tradition among her descendants, her family identified themselves as Scotch-Irish.〔''Proceedings and Addresses of the Fourth Congress at Atlanta Ga. April 28 to May 1, 1892'' (Nashville: The Scotch Irish Society of America, 1892), p. 344. The William Willford mentioned in the passage cited is author of ''Genealogy and History of the Willford Family in America''.〕 Since members of this ethnic group came to America from the Ulster area of Ireland, Campbell would have been born either in Ireland or in America depending on whether her family immigrated before or after her birth.
