Theresa,
Do you know the name of Margaret Caldwell's husband? The 1900 census you listed has
Margaret as the mother in law of James Higgs and the mother of Sarah, indicating that
Margaret married a Caldwell. If they lived in Buncombe, Madison, or Haywood Counties of
North Carolina, then there may be a connection.
My earliest known Caldwell ancestor was Henry Caldwell, who lived in Buncombe County,
North Carolina in the Sandy Mush area, then moving to Spring Creek area of Madison County,
North Carolina. James Caldwell, son of Henry, later settled in Cataloochee, Haywood
County, North Carolina. Henry Elzie Caldwell, son of James, was my great, great
grandfather.
Wilma
