Bill,
I know how you feel;I have been searching for my Caldwell ancestors for
almost two years.We know that my grandparents were from Tennessee and
even tho they moved several times,they were almost always in Obion
county.No one there seem to know anything about them.Their manes were
James Walter CALDWELL and Ida PARISH(PARRISH)CALDWELL,she later married
a Harris,which I was told from an distant cousin the Harris mans name
was Harvey.I have checked so many things on-line and still haven't found
anything.A lady from Missouri doing a research on the Parish line sent
me a copy of a doc. that showed where my grandfather bought some land in
Obion county back in the early 1900's.I figured he was born around
1882,Ida was born June,1882 in Obion county.I have a couple census
records showing her on them under her parent' census records.I haven't
found any from after she was married on censuses.Altho that would have
been after the 1900's rolled in.I heard there wasn't a 1890 census due
to a fire.So probally a lot of my family information was in that time or
shortly afterwards.My luck,lol.
I will be on the look out for anything matching or near matching your
ancestors.

Hello ALL Caldwell Researchers:
Does anyone have any information of the Andrew CALDWELL family in Orange
County, NC? He died about 1765 in Orange County, NC. His wife was Janet
or Jennet, thought to be SCOTT, a widow, married on 8 Aug 1739 at St.
Michael Parish, Barbados Marriage Records 1643-1800, Volume 1, page 164.
After Andrew died, Janet married Archibald McAllister. James Freeland
appointed guardian to Margaret, Elizabeth, Simon and William Caldwell,
orphans of Andrew Caldwell. Bond: �000. Bondsmen: Alexander
Mebane Sr. and John Butler, Orange County, NC. Andrew's will named
Janet, Mary, Elizabeth, Samuel, and William Caldwell, Orange County, NC.
Surely someone has run across them in their searching. I am unalbe to
find anything on them before or after Andrew's death. Any information
is greatly appreciated.
