Campbell Chronicles and Family Sketches
by R. H. Early

At the age of sixteen he enlisted as a private in the Virginia troops under Captains Elisha White, Samuel White, Samuel Hubbard, William Tinsley, Thomas Richardson and William Anderson. He served altogether about three years. His father's home was burned, but the family records were recorded in the parish register of the Rev. Patrick Henry, who was a neighbor and friend of the family. After the Revolution, Hughes moved to Bedford but in 1805 settled in Campbell.
