My husband's GGgrandfather Samuel Calhoun also came from Ireland (Castletown,
Laoighis). He is on the Georgia 1870 census as 32 yrs old married to Arah (maiden name
unknown), but may be Albright as they were listed in the Albright household, w/son William
H. 3 yrs, and dau/Martha L, 1 yr. Martha is my husband's Ggrandmother. They are also
listed on the ARK 1880 census, (Arah spelled her name Orra), with W. H. Calhoun and
Martha Calhoun and another son, George W. HOGAN, 18 yrs born in GA. The 1880 census says
Samuel was born in Scotland. Can any one shed some light on this family? Samuel and Orra
(Arah) Calhoun are buried in Oklahoma. I have visited their grave.
