Good morning, Butch:
I'm sorry that I have taken so long to reply. My email was down. (Hard to live without
it!)
Anyway, if you could give me a little more info, I may be able to find something on your
wife's family. Who was Margaret Peggy CALDWELL married to? Who were your wife's
parents, grandparents, etc.
I did some research on Blanche CALDWELL of the Bonnie and Clyde gang once. Just for fun.
To see if I could tie her in to my family. I got real close and I am not finished with her
line yet. She was Cherokee and Choctaw, I believe. Her father was Matthew CALDWELL, who
was Cherokee. I will dig up my notes and give you more information.
Also, I have Crowders in my database; are we cousins?

Hi,
My wife was born a Caldwell and is descendant of Margaret Peggy Caldwell born about 1807
in Botetourt County. Her maiden name is unknown. She was a full blooded Cherokee and
resided in Simmonsville and Level Green in Sinking Creek Valley. She had one son and two
daughters. If you know anything about Caldwell's married to Indians please contact me
at crowderfb(a)AOL.com.
In regards to your questions about your two ancestors that were in the Civil War, if they
were in the home guard, no records might exist. Finding their tombstones might help
confirm their service. Also Check the VPI Library and the National Archives.
