Any idea of when the John Campbell you are seeking was born?

Cornwall OPC only has these 2 Burials;
1823   Penzance, St. Mary (Madron Chapelry) age 74, Notes, Wid (Widower I presume)
1849   Penzance, St. Mary (Madron Chapelry), age 68

1881 Census has a John CAMPBELL born c 1836 Jura, Argyll, Scotland, (age 45), Married, Master of  the "Flying Kestrel" in Falmouth.

FreeBMD has only 10 Death Regs for a John Campbell  1849-1947 in Cornwall.
(you might want to look at those)

HI Trish,
My GGF John CAMPBELL was born 1826 at Longleys Perthshire Scotland.
Will check the 10 deaths at FreeBMD.  I was a subscriber for FreeBMD for 6 years, so should have thought of that.  Thank you very much for your help.
Regards
Barry
