• Name	Peter Dodson Campbell
  Born	22 Feb 1879	Roane County, West Virginia, USA
  Gender	Male
  Died	11 May 1976  [1]
  Notes	From Twila: He was amazing, living on his own up to his death. He and Viola were married longer than most people live, having surpassed their 75th wedding anniversary before their death. Peter Dodson Campbell was a devoutly religous man and could answer most questions about the bible and flip right to the verse he wanted to tell you about! Oh... he absolutely married her immediately after the death of Mary Ella Shafer.... my records show that the date of that married Viola on March 17, 1903.... family members tell me that he felt it was imperitive that he marry immediately because he had an infact daughter that needed caring for.... and he had to earn a living so they wouldn't go hungry.

My earliest recollection of her was when I was maybe six to eight years old. I was born in 1961.... I don't have her date of birth in front of me but I'm thinking that she must have been around 90 even then. She always had cookies for us kids and was a quiet and unassuming woman. She always had someting in her lap..... and I want to say it was usually knitting.... she had beautiful doilies all over the house. Mom and Dad always made us kids go outside because they wanted a quiet visit without us kids jumping around. Sometimes I would sneak into the kitchen where the men were and listen to them talk about the Bible. My dad would always ask Great Grandpa to show him where some obscure verse was and he would flip right to it and tell Dad what it meant to him and where else in the Bible you could find references to the same subject.
