John Archibald Campbell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"John Archibald Campbell (June 24, 1811 - March 12, 1889), was an American jurist. Campbell was born near Washington, Georgia, to Col. Duncan Greene Campbell (for whom Campbell County, Georgia, is named). Considered a child prodigy, he graduated from the University of Georgia in 1825 at the age of 14, and attended West Point Military Academy for three years, but withdrew upon the death of his father and returned home to Georgia. He read law with former Georgia governor John Clark, and was admitted to the bar in 1829, at the age of 18 (this required a special act of the Georgia legislature). ..." |
