George Campbell was the son of Smith Campbell who was born about 1803 in Tennessee.

In the 1850 census of Carroll County, Missouri, Smith Campbell is listed with no wife but 6 children, Joseph 24, Sarah K. 16, Jonathan L. 14, Agnes R. 11, Nancy L. 7, and George 4. So, it seems that George was the youngest child in his family and that his mother died when he was very young.

In 1860, George was 15 and living with his father and a new step-mother in Brunswick, Chariton County, Missouri. It appears that George has a step-brother age 4 named S. F. Ricketts, and a half-brother named James S. Campbell 3.

In 1875, George married Sarah Anna Winkler (1849-1917). They had no known children. The Campbells ran a grocery and general store in New Frankfort, Saline County, Missouri. George died on June 16, 1916. Less than 7 months later, Sarah was murdered by her nephew for her money. Both George and Sarah are buried at New Frankfort Cemetery.
