1. Presumably Will sent a copy or the chart in response to a motion at the 1934 Reunion which created a committee to "look up family tree" and Harry Kemp was appointed its chair. That seems strange because in 1924 Will Selph had given out more than 100 copies of a beautifully drawn chart (in a style rather like a spreadsheet). And in 1923 through 1926 more than 100 of Joseph and Ann Clinch Campbell's descendants had copies of the 4 volums of the Campbell Cousins Correspondence -- including Kate Horton & Mabel Shaw who were present. By 1935 there was another generation to add. But Will's chart and Jane Campbell Tubbs' reports in CCC Vol.4 seem to have been forgotten. In addition, many of those now active in the reunions (including Clyde Campbell and Harry Kemp) were descendants of Joseph's brother, James Campbell and his wife, Mary Blackwell who was Ann's half-sister.
2. Perhaps Harry only talked about the descendants of his mother, Harriet (Campbell) Parks Kemp. But I expect he talked about the descendants of her parents, James Campbell and his wife, Mary Blackwell. Fannie Monroe was appointed chair of a committee to comile a Hazlett family tree, but their efforts were not reported until the 1937 reunion.
