Campbell Road is a 4-mile stretch of road located between 14 Mile and I-696 just west of I-75. It is named for Welcome Campbell.
In 1859, Mr. Campbell with his wife and eight children moved to section 26 and 27 of Royal Oak Township where he bought 750 acres of land between 9 and 10 Mile, which had a road running north through it.
Campbell Road is named in honor of Welcome Campbell and remains that name north of 10 Mile today. Interestingly, the road was never an official street name in Ferndale, but was commonly referred to as Campbell Road until 1920 when the southern end became officially named Hilton Road.
