Looking for info on John Stamps (1798-1867) I believe he is from Kentucky but he may be from Virginia as he named a town "Mount Vernon" in Texas after the birthplace of our 1st President. He settled in Washington County, Texas and was involved in Texas Gov't at that time (mid-1800's?). I can look for more information on him if anyone needs it...I just need to track him back as he is the furthest I have gone (4-Great's Grandfather). My father is Jack Stamps Campbell (b. Washington Co., 1949), brother JSC, Jr. and Nephew, Taylor Stamps Campbell - all now live in Texas.

Any info is appreciated - I think he may have descended from Dr. Timothy Stamps??? Thanks!
