Thank you so much Trish for your reply, the information you gave me sounds more accurate and makes more sense. James Campbell married Jane Nolan and had their children in Alderney apart from the last two who were born in Ireland. I knew James Campbell had something to do with the army but wasn't sure. The daughter of James and Jane - Jane Reina, well I thought Reina was the mother Jane's maiden name but now I know it was a middle name. The daughter Jane's nickname was Jinny and she moved to Birmingham U.k and Mary A was Mary Ann and her nickname was Minn. I didn't have any information on Thomas born in 1901 so maybe he could have died, not sure yet. Thanks again for your help, much appreciated.
