To Susan Whipple -
The Callaway family who appeared in Wayne Co, IN at early dates are
from Kent Co, Delaware, via Stokes Co, NC.
One of our CFA members, now deceased, who attended most of our early
workshops, was descended from the Kent Co, DE Callaway family. When
we held our workshop at NC Archives, Raleigh, she looked into the
Stokes Co records. I will have to dig a bit to find these records. I
seem to recall that there was not much of a genealogical nature in
the Stokes Co records, except to prove that JOHN CALLAWAY was there
for a short period of time before moving on to the mid-west. Census
records show him - for the first time - in Wayne Co, IN in 1820.
All the early Callaways in Kent Co, DE are descendants of Peter
Callaway III, s/o Peter Callaway, Jr., s/o Peter Callaway, Sr (the
immigrant). In later years a few of the other Callaway branches
moved into Kent Co.
I will help you all I can. We would love to have the descendants of
John and Sarah Calaway Howard.
