Robert Campbell (1804 – 1879) was an Irish immigrant who became an American frontiersman, fur trader and businessman.
Campbell was unique in terms of his successful career in the American West, which included his involvement in the successful Rocky Mountain Fur Company, as well as his long formal partnership with trapper William Sublette in the 1820s. In 1835, he returned to his hometown of St. Louis, thus ending his frontiersman days. After that, Campbell established himself as a businessman, real estate mogul and banker.
