Hi Lisa,
Have you looked on the Owens Orchard site of Rootsweb.com?
It seems that Matthew's parents were Simon Calkins and Selah and grandparents were
John Calkins and Sarah Huntington. I am related to Oliver Calkins, b.1753, married to
Hannah Thomas. His parents were Dr. John Calkins and Abigail Northrup and grandparents
were also John Calkins and Sarah Huntington. Oliver Calkins and his family lived around
Cochecton, Sullivan, NY, which is north of Narrowsburg and also on the Delaware River.
Obviously there were a number of Calkins who came over from CT to settle in Sullivan
County, NY.
I hope this helps you, although you may have found this long ago.
Jenny
