  John Archibald Campbell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Campbell strongly opposed secession, and in early 1861 served as a mediator between William H. Seward, Lincoln's Secretary of War, and the three Confederate commissioners Martin Crawford, Andre Roman, and John Forsyth.
Campbell had been instructed that the Lincoln administration's policy was for peace and reconciliation, not war, but during the meetings Campbell learned that the U.S. government was reinforcing Fort Sumter and had requested 75,000 volunteers, and Campbell decided that he had been lied to.
Campbell served only eight years on the Supreme Court, though he remained in good health until his death in 1889 and could have served on the court for many years had the Civil War not intervened.

A Strathclyde-Briton family from the Scottish/English Borderlands was the first to use the surname Campbell.
This nickname surname is derived from the Gaelic words "cam" and "beul," meaning "crooked" and "mouth." Nicknames were a common source for surnames; in general, they came from the physical characteristics, behavior, mannerisms and other attributes of the bearer.
