I'm doing a periodic post to connect with anyone who might have
information
on my line, which descends from Nicholas Callaham who married Joyce Weaver
through their son David Calliham through his daughter Susannah Calliham who
married Absalom Griffin. Susannah was my gggg-grandmother. I would be
particularly interested to have data on further ancestors up the chain.
The following is a partial descendancy of some of this line. Please feel
free to contact me directly to share information.
