My Connection: My GREAT GREAT
Grandma was Emma Kassell Campbell born ca 1860 - 1865 in Missouri.
Her marriage license listed her maiden name as Cassell while
her children's birth and death certificates list various spellings.
Kassell is the most accepted spelling. While her birthplace
is listed as Missouri, we believe that some of the family moved to the
Chicago area. The combination of
census information and these city directories
are being researched in hopes of finding a timeline of where Emma lived and
worked. Born and married in St. Louis, she moved to East
St. Louis and that is where all five of her children were born. Her
husband George Scott Campbell died in 1912 and
by 1919, she was in St. Louis. She remained there until at least
1925. She also later in Granite City, Illinois.
We decided to post all the city directory information for the names that
were at least similiar to our ancestor's surnames - we hope to find
more missing relatives. Happy Hunting to all who visit this site.
