Sorry: can't help on this, but it looks as if we're on the same track . . .
or, perhaps, trying to find the same track.
I need the parentage of James Peckham Caldwell, b. 6 January 1793 (somewhere
in Maryland); d. 16 November 1856, Brazoria, Texas. He apparently went to
Texas with Samuel Austin.
Between the Maryland Hall of Records, the National Archives, the FHC, and the
DAR Library, I've come up with a fair number of Caldwell/Callwell people, but
nothing I can tie this James Peckham into.
But here are some bits and pieces:
Maryland Hall of Records: 1783 Assessment (Index 65) shows Caldwells in
Cecil and Wicomico Counties . . . and in Sussex County, Delaware.
The 1810 Maryland Census lists the following CALDWELLS: Jabez (Talbot),
Daniel (Talbot), Edward (Talbot), Hugh (Washington), and Timothy (Caroline).
And the following CALLWELLS: David (Harford), John (Harford), Peter (Kent),
and Robert (Cecil.)
Would love to hear from anyone on this . . . .
