William Campbell is another early settler who perhaps had the largest tract of land. It is reported in the Census of 1861 that of his total 400 acres, 200 was held in fee simple and the remain-ing 200 acres was held under lease. However, only 100 acres of this land was said to be arable at that time. This farm was later owned by Daniel Campbell and stayed in the Campbell name until 1922. History of Belmont, Lot 16
