John Columbus Campbell was born 19 May 1854 in Weston, Platte County, Missouri, oldest son and second child (of 10) of Nathaniel and Margaret (Archer) Campbell. He was barely a year old when his parents moved to Leavenworth County, Kansas, and about 12 when they moved to Wyandotte County, Kansas.

He married Ellen Campbell (who was possibly related) about 1877, and they had four children: Daisy May, born 1879, Susan Ellen (Susie), born 1880, Harry Archer, born 1881, and Katherine (Kitty), born 1883.

Ellen died in 1913. John drove a team of horses in a number of jobs most of his adult life, from salvage to deliveries. He died suddenly of a heart attack on 18 November 1920 in Kansas City, Kansas, and was laid to rest next to his wife.

All known photographs of John Campbell were lost when the 1951 flood swept through Kansas City.
