Memorial for Lucinda Rebecca Jane [Blackburn] Humphries Campbell - Post Dispatch on January 28, 1915:
"In Loving Memory - Near 5 o'clock Monday morning, January 4th, the death angel softly entered the home of Mr. Carson Campbell, near Chickalah, with a summons for his dear wife. She had been in ill health but ten days yet bore her suffering with all patience, never once murmuring. Oh, how sad to part with loved ones whom we know can never come back again. We know she will be sadly missed, yet, dear husband and children, weep not as those who have no hope for your dear wife and mother is at rest, basking in the sunlight of eternal bliss where there is no sickness, sorrow, pain or death and where all tears are wiped away. She leaves a dear husband, four daughters, four sons, and a host of friends to mourn her loss. She was a true and faithful Christian, always speaking words of comfort to the unsaved, and sadly indeed will she be missed." E. M. C.
William 'Carson' Campbell died on November 7, 1922 and is laid to rest by his wife in the Dacus Cemetery.
