Melissa was the only child of Cornelius and Mary H. (Ganantz) McKerlie. She was the third Melissa McKerlie, having been named for her Aunt Melissa McKerlie and her father's Aunt Melissa McKerlie. Jewelry has been handed down from each Melissa in the family and is now in possession of the fourth Melissa descendant.
Melissa married Erwin T. Campbell on February 19, 1916 in the town of Porter. They had one daughter. Their roles on the Campbell farm were laid out simply, Erwin would "take care of the outside", Melissa "the inside". During her marriage Melissa managed their large home beautifully, serving large meals for field hands who often boarded with the family as well as relatives who lived with the Campbells. Melissa was an excellent cook and a very loving and caring person.
