He graduated in Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, Middlesex County, Massachusetts in 1866.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
At the age of sixteen young Merritt was teaching school in a small town in Vermont, and spending all his spare time reading books borrowed from the old village doctor, this good man thought at first to forever discourage the young scientist, and started him with a long and dull treatise on the brain. But the youth was not to be discouraged, and after returning the book, and proving that he knew enough to talk about it, became an object of interest and was rewarded with more interesting ones, and many pleasant conversations. At nineteen he entered Harvard medical school and after one course of lectures became a medical cadet, and served for the remaining years of the Civil War in a base hospital near Boston. After finishing his medical course of two years, and receiving his diploma from Harvard, he became assistant to a practicing physician, but the restless pioneer spirit soon drove him westward, and his journey ended at Wilmington Illinois, a thriving country town. He lived in Joliet, Will County, Illinois in 1873.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
In 1873, the family moved a few miles north to the rapidly growing little city of Joliet where for fifteen years, in addition to his general practice, he was physician at the state penitentiary. Observations in this institution led to his first research work, he became much interested in the subject of crime, its cause and cure, and was led to believe that the primal cause was alcohol. He was an intense worker, both physical and mental, and felt that his health and strength were equal to any strain. During this period he sometimes kept at his work three days and nights without sleep.
MB lived in Claremont, Los Angeles County, California in October 1889.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
In the later eighties father's health began to fail, great overwork, both physical and mental, with nervous strain began to tell, and he developed trouble which demanded less strenuous work for a time.

The winter of 1888-89 called for a visit to a warmer climate, and he and mother spent part of it in Mexico, where the accommodations were rather primitive, for tourist travel to Mexico was not developed very much at that time.

The following fall father came to California by way of Panama, traveling across the isthmus on a little railway. His health greatly improved, he and mother came the following winter, at which time they bought the first orange grove set out in the San Gabriel valley, with trees brought from Italy by the owner Mr. Loop. This was near Claremont. The location was chosen because of the educational advantages offered by Pomona College, which was just started and had at that time only a preparatory school. Each year a college year was added and the first class was graduated in 1894.

In the summer of 1891 the family moved to Claremont and took up their residence on the old ranch. During that year father bought and planted more land so that at one time he had nearly eighty acres of citrus trees.
Between 1892 and 1904 he was a founding Superintendent in Patton State Hospital, Patton, California.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
The following year however, he was appointed superintendent of the state hospital at Patton, which was then under construction. He held this position for twelve years, resigning in 1904. The family home was maintained on the ranch until 1902 and during this time from one to three children were always in preparatory school or college. Aunt Elizabeth Campbell, father's sister, lived with us on the ranch from 1895 or '96 until we moved at which time she went to live in Los Angeles. A house was built for the superintendent of the hospital that year and the home was moved to Patton in the spring. For the preceding ten years mother spent most of her time on the ranch but made frequent visits to Patton. Father, on the other hand, spent one day a week at home. During these years he worked hard and was confined closely.

[From "Patton Remembered," pg. ii]
A patchwork of six parcels of land totaling 360 acres and edging toward the foothills north of San Bernardino was selected in the spring of 1890 as the site for the fourth of California's mental hospitals, the Southern California Asylum for the Insane... [later the facility] was named the Southern California State Asylum for the Insane and Inebriates... The first building was completed in 1893. The asylum was declared open on August 1st and received first inmates on August 2nd. Dr. M. B. Campbell was the Medical Director.

[From "Patton Remembered," pg. 5]
First payroll, July 1893, shows M. B. Campbell, Medical Director, was paid $291.65 toward an annual salary of $3500.
He appeared in the census in 1900 in Patton State Hospital, Patton, California. MB lived at 1608 Orange Street, [Now Wilshire Boulevard], in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California between 1904 and 1908.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
Mother died at Patton on October 31, 1902, of pneumonia after an illness of one week. Two years later the family moved to Los Angeles where father bought a house at 1608 Orange Street now Wilshire Boulevard. Father was in practice there for four years. He appeared in the census in 1910 in Heber, Imperial County, California. Calexico Township, April 27-28, 1910; Enumeration District 5; Series T624, Roll 77, pg 184.
Address: 68 Heber Ranch East; 66 years old, widowed; married 41 years; farmer with a hay ranch, owner; farm schedule #49. Living with him was daughter Elizabeth R Campbell, age 29, single, "none" for occupation. He died on 1 December 1911 in Heber, Imperial County, California.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
In January, 1908, father had a very serious attack of pneumonia and although he got up from this, and with his usual energy attended to his business and did a good deal of manual work, he was never well again or free from pain. The previous year he had acquired some ranch land in the new and rapidly developing Imperial Valley and as soon as he was well enough, went down there, taking with him Walter Meack, the son of his cousin Laura. Cousin Laura lived with us during this time, about three months. After this summer father spent much of his time in Imperial Valley, his daughter Elizabeth (Aunt Bess) being with him most of the time. In the spring of 1911 father built a good bungalow on a fourteen-acre piece of land in the little town at Heber, where he died on December 1, 1911.

MB was buried in 1911 in Hollywood Forever Cemetery, Los Angeles County, California. He was a physician and served as a surgeon for the Union Army during the Civil War. He later was doctor at Statesville Penitentiary in Joliet, IL (1878-1890). His daughter Cora Belle Campbell was delivered by her father in the prison hospital; served as founding Superintendent of the State Hospital at Patton, California. Parents: Alexander Campbell and Alma Tracy.

Spouse: Hannah Elizabeth "Lillie" Pennington. Hannah Elizabeth "Lillie" Pennington and Dr. Merritt Bates "MB" Campbell were married on 16 June 1869 in Wilmington, Will County, Illinois.
[From Alma Campbell's letter]
...the restless pioneer spirit soon drove him westward, and his journey ended at Wilmington Illinois, a thriving country town. Here he met and married Hannah Elizabeth Pennington, a girl of nineteen, who was a helpmeet indeed, and whose alert mind and ready sympathies shared his ideals and aspirations and rejoiced in his achievements...

...On June 16, 1869, she married Merritt Bates Campbell. The day was ushered in by a heavy frost, following several weeks of warm weather, and stoves were brought out and set up for the occasion. The wedding trip of this young couple took them as far as Bloomington and Springfield where they were caught in a heavy rain and father went to purchase an umbrella. Although characterized all his later life by extremely good and accurate taste, he was in his youth slightly color blind, and returned not with the green umbrella, which was wanted, but a beautiful blue one. And for the three days of their honeymoon they plodded around under this brilliant canopy.

Their first meal in their own home was spread on a little drop leaf table, one of the pieces that father purchased at "secondhand" when he furnished the one room in which he slept and doctored his patients for three years.

They lived at 368 Eastern Avenue in Joliet, Will County, Illinois in 1880. Household includes John Campbell, age 26, a single cousin who is a physician. He was born in Ohio and both his parents were born in New England. Children were: Charles Merritt Campbell, Dr. Robert Alexander "RA" Campbell, Alma Tracy Campbell, Mary Pennington "Mae" Campbell, Cora Belle Campbell, Elizabeth Rice Campbell.

Spouse: Mary Elizabeth Greer.

Spouse: Theodore Frank Cerulli.

Spouse: Katherine Young. Katherine Young and Dr. Robert Alexander "RA" Campbell were married in 1909 or 1910 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California. [May 5, 2004] This marriage is now confirmed, based on information from the Illinois Great Rivers Conference of the United Methodist Church. The death notice and memorial to Mrs. Elizabeth Moffett Young, who died March 25, 1928, says: "Mrs. Young is preceded in death by a sister, Mrs. Katherine Yale of California, and Ruben Moffet, a brother, who died in the Civil War. Her husband died April 30, 1902, as also her daughter, Mrs. Lulu Van Petten and Mrs. Wilha Campbell, the latter of Los Angeles. She is survived by Mrs. J. W. Dodson, Moweaqua, Mrs. R. A. Campbell, Los Angeles, and Dr. M. D. Young of Tempe, Arizona. Also by thirteen grandchildren and seven great grandchildren."

Therefore one daughter, Mrs. Wilha Campbell of Los Angeles, has died and another daughter, Mrs. R. A. Campbell, was then living in Los Angeles.

[April 2, 2004] This marriage is assumed -- and also assumed is that Wilhelmina Young, Robert's first wife, and Katherine Young, Robert's second wife, were sisters; both daughters of the Rev. WHD Young, a Methodist minister from Illinois.
