    I am actually looking for information on Lucinda Wheeler who married George Washington Campbell. She and her daughter Hattie Bell Campbell were born on reservation from what I understand. I believe Oklahoma and ended up in Texas

      There was a George Washington Campbell who married a Lucinda Wheeler that had a daughter named Hattie Bell Campbell born in 1876, who married a man with the surname Cecil. They lived in Texas, and then Oklahoma. This family group was not Native American. They were White settlers that moved into Indian Territory sometime after 1880. This was during a time period when the population of Indian Territory was already majority-White and just prior to Oklahoma statehood. Before moving into Oklahoma, with the wave of White settlement, they were living in Texas. This George Washington Campbell was a Texas Ranger and noted Indian fighter.

      Per Jimmy Christian: First mention of George W Campbell in Montague Co Texas is in the 1860’s when he was the Captain of a Texas Ranger Company (probably Co B) which was established to replace the company which was withdrawn to fight in the Civil War. Capt Campbell and his men were recognized as being very brave and skillful Indian fighters.George served as County Treasurer of Montague Co, 1875-1876; elected Sheriff in 1880, served 2 consecutive terms until end of 1884; elected Sheriff again in 1886. He was longest serving sheriff of all Montague Co until the 1940s.

      Both George and Lucinda were born in Illinois.

      The Campbell family had moved to Texas sometime in the 1850s. George’s parents then moved back to Illinois by at least 1870, while he stayed in Texas.
