    Campbell Information. See Aurora Campbell. Elizabeth Ashworth File.
    ...Robert E. BOYKIN, living in Wharton in 1889, apparently was of age to
    transact legal business, so must have been born no later than 1868. His
    uncle, Alexander CAMPBELL, once wrote that the Boykins' post office was
    "Horton Co., Hortonsville" when he last heard. On an early list of Campbell heirs these brothers appear as "Sion & Robert BOSTICK, children of said
    Mrs. Aurora by her second husband who was Sion BOYAKIN." Bostick must have been a slip of the pen.
