In 1798, Thomas Campbell accepted a call from the Ahorey Presbyterian Church about four miles from the city of Armagh. He ministered there until he emigrated to the U.S. in 1807. During his ministry, the family lived first on a farm near Hamilton's Bawn, and then moved to Rich Hill where Thomas opened a school to supplement his income.
