John (a tailor / painter) , born Rothshire according to the 1851 census, married Ellen
Hawthorn in Liverpool, UK, 1841 where he lived for the rest of his life. Son, William
Calder (another painter) born 1842. Can anyone help me trace John's ancestors in
Scotland please - I know his father was William Calder too (born 1785 ish? ). The modern
day family believe they were from Aberdeen but there is no evidence of this. There's a
possible grandfather , William Calder - see Edinburgh 1851 census, born c1877 Tain,
Rothshire. Theres also a possible brother, Donald Calder, painter, born Durness,
Sutherland who married Ellen Spencer in Liverpool, 1848. Any help gratefully received!
