Query Text: |
I'm looking for descendants of George William Robert Campbell.He was born in 1835 Campbeltown, Argyll, Scotland.His parents was John Campbell & Eliza Elder.He was in charge of the “Rathnagheri Rangers” of the Bombay Police, to shoulder this onerous responsibility. Mr. Campbell was selected by the Governor and he assumed duties as the Chief Superintendent of Police of Ceylon,Sri Lanka on the 3rd of September 1866. In 1867, by an amendment to the Police Ordinance No. 16 of 1865, the designation of the Head of the Police Force was changed from Chief Superintendent to Inspector-General of Police. Therefore, 3rd of September 1866 can be considered as the beginning of the country’s present Police Service. Mr. Campbell is credited with shaping the Police Force into an efficient organization and giving it a distinct identity. He brought the whole island under his purview and the police became a national rather than a local Force.He was Actg.Lieutenant-Governor of Penang,Malaysia from(1872-1873).He married 1stly to Louisa Georgina Moyle and 2ndly to ? Murray.He died in 1905.His issue - i)Guy Campbell. ii)Arthur Campbell. iii)Eila Louisa Mary Campbell(?-1941) married to Frederick Hugh Mackenzie Corbet(1862-1916).Their issue - i)Reginald Vincent Campbell Corbet(1894-1915). ii)Constance Eila Corbet(1895-1966) married 1stly to Sir Hubert Jervoise Huddleston(1880-1960) and 2ndly to Sir Basil Hamilton Hebden Neven-Spence(1888-1974).Their issue - a)Pamela Constance Laura Huddleston(1931-1993).Source from John Drummond. iv)Mary Campbell. v)Alice Campbell. vi)Victoria Campbell. vii)Evelyn Campbell.
