Hi,
My CALDER line is from Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
Margaret CALDER married James CUMMING, 1851 in Ellon, Aberdeenshire,
Scotland.
Margaret CALDER was born c 1830 in Tarves, Aberdeenshire, Scotland from the
1881 census listing her age as 51.
I was given some possible background on Margaret CALDER from another kind
researcher (hello Carol if you are on this list!!). The following has NOT
been checked out:
From the Ellon 1871 census Jane CALDER, age 65, b New Machar is listed as
grandmother
of the CUMMING children below. So Jane CALDER is most likely the mother of
Margaret CALDER, b 1830, Tarves. If so, Jane CALDER also had a daughter
named Susan CALDER. A possible husband for Jane CALDER is: William CALDER
married Jean SMITH on 10 Jun 1828 in New Machar (from the IGI).
Margaret CALDER, b 1830 & James CUMMING had 12 Children:
Jane Cumming, b Jan 12, 1851, Ellon
Jessie Cumming, b May 26, 1853, Ellon
Anne Cumming, b Feb 19, 1855, Udny
William Cumming, b Feb 12, 1857, Ellon
Susan Cumming, b Dec 4, 1858 Belhelvie
James Cumming, b Nov 14, 1860, Ellon
Sarah Minty Cumming, b Jan 2, 1863 Old Deer
Mary Cumming, b May 3, 1864, Old Deer

Georgina Milne Cumming, b Feb 22, 1868, Ellon
Alexander Cumming, B Oct 25, 1869 Ellon
Catherine Kilgour Cumming, b Sept 20, 1872 Ellon
My direct line is from Margaret CUMMING, b Dec 10, 1865, Ellon
who married my g grandfather Benjamin JONES in Aberdeen, Scotland.
I'm originally from Toronto, Ontario, Canada & now live
in New Jersey, USA.
