Dr. Archibald Daniel Campbell, or "A.D.", as he was called, was born on a Mosa, Middlesex County farm on November 12, 1886, and there he spent all his early life. After attending a rural public school and Glencoe High School he went on to study medicine at McGill University. He graduated in 1911. After 2 years of interning at the Royal Victoria Hospital he went west to Alberta to practice. As World War I began, he returned east to join the Canadian Medical Service and served overseas until the end of the war. On returning home he set up a practice in Montreal and went on to become an Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at McGill University and Gynecologist and Obstetrician-in-Chief at the Montreal General Hospital. He died on September 29, 1970. (From the introductory note to his autobiography, written by William Munro Campbell in March, 1989.)

Duncan Campbell was born on April 3, 1818, in Oban, Scotland.

He was a journalist and historian. He began his career in journalism as editor of the Glasgow Argus and editorial writer for the Daily Bulletin, the first penny daily established in Scotland. In 1862, on a commission of the Glasgow Road Reform Association, he lectured throughout Scotland on the-abolition of the archaic toll system. In 1866, shortly before the confederation of Nova Scotia, Campbell conducted a large group of Scottish emigrants to Halifax and he was commissioned to survey Nova Scotia as a potential home for immigrants. The survey aroused in him a profound interest in Nova Scotia history and he wrote two books "Nova Scotia, in its Historical, Mercantile and Industrial Relations" (1873) and "History of Nova Scotia, for Schools" (1877). In 1875, he published "History of Prince Edward Island". During the two decades in which he resided in Nova Scotia, he was engaged in a variety of occupations. He worked as a reporter on the Halifax Morning Chronicle (1869-1870) and as secretary of the Halifax Industrial Commission. He also worked as a bookkeeper but eventually devoted himself to historical writing. He was also a frequent contributor to the local press of articles and letters dealing with topics of public interest. He was the author of a prize essay which was published in the Nova Scotian Journal of Agriculture.

He married Mary Stewart. He died on August 26, 1886, in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
