IS ANY ONE RESEARCHING THIS FAMILY?
William Calvert and Jane Craig
IGI from the Mormon libaray, list this family twice.
John born 1793
Mary born 1977
William born 1778
Walter born 1791
They are listed at both Marlbro, Chester County, Penn and Wilminton, Lawrence County, Penn.
Lawrence County was donation land.
THIS CAN ALSO BE PART OF THE SCAM OF THE CALVERT WILL.
Hi Cathy.
Lets back up. I know we chatted a bit once about your line and I have forgotten--where does your family line end up? that is Calvert? Do Sarah and William go to KY? OH? Do you have inkling of diferrent spelling for Thomas, such as Colbert or Colvert or even Covalt? David

Thomas C. Calvert Sr in Greene Co PA, Will, documentation, vendue, etc I
knew for certain that there is a very succinct history to this family line.
I do know this via seconary documentation: THomas Father was Isaac who
married Fanny Bullitt(sic). other researchers who know the Calverts and
other lines well would indicate this is the Bullitts out of VA. I thought
early on that Frances Bullitt was the wife of Isaac but she is too young. I
presume still, that thinking this is a valid assumption, based on locale and
origination of the Calverts out of MD and

Harlan and is associated with the Chenowith family line and/or the
Hollingsworth. But Truthfully I can say there is no inkling anywhere in my
family of a quaker association, except by marriage. There are 5 family lines
that have passed down the fact that these Calverts of first, Western VA are
out of MD: My Calvert family, The Harlan Carnely Lemasters and Taylors, all
5 family groups having a heritage of the same story: Thomas and his
ancestors were from Maryland. Now don't read this to say that I know this is
the truth, because I do not. However, in all 5 of these families there is
the family story that these Calverts were related to one of the Lords
Baltimore, namely, Ceciliius. So fo course when I took over from Dorthey Lee
Calvert, I presumed a lot, but kept this essential focus intact.

disassoicated from any connection with the Irish Calverts to nno avaiil. But
I did begin to dig into other spellings of the Calvert surname and I found
an Isaac Colbert born in Somerset Co. MD 1747/8 whho was son of Alexander
Colbert who married Mary Whealer in 1744. Thiss really got my attention. I
wsa thinking geography, how close things were and various family associated
researchers who also had looked at this Isaac. THere are 4 diffrent frames
of reference which indicate the heritage of Isaac. one indicates that Isaac
was b 1735 father of Thomas. Another William but has THomas bdate as 1784
which is the wrong Thomas. Still another gets down to a lot closer look,
still with Thomas and Isaac and going back to John Calvert who

one who came to the middle potomac and started a fur trading post, father of

Calvert came in to pay his bill and he told a story of his family. At first,
I could not make the connection until we figured out the brothers and
sisters of my THomas C. Calvert Jr. Then (sigh by gawd as a later descendent
of this Thomas was wont to say), it hit me. Had I not gone to Greene County,
I would never have found any of this. I would never have had the sense to go
back again and again and I will be there again just after thanksgiving.

names which are in the faamily and ends up saying in the news article, that
sure, my family is from 'Bucks Lancaster, England.' This tells me that John
D Calvert who told the reporter this story in 1881 knew where he was from
and from the family to which his ancestry belonged.

> I cannot say if he meant Bucks meaning the county in PA. Or Lancaster the
county in VA or PA or in the UK meaning Buckinghamshire which is south and
east of Yorkshire. It certainly meant that a 76 year old man knew his family
heritage was from England.

so all along.

> I hope this makes interesting story telling but the single key fact is
that we know via this news article, the heritage of the My Calvert family,
even more than we knew before. FUrther in this collection of documentation
is a letter of Ida Calvert to her Uncle Dr. Thomas Miller Calvert, defining
a trip from Silverhill, Wetzel Co WV to Greene Co pa. She says where the
farms of Isaac and Thomas were located, even finding the tombstone of Thomas
Sr, still intact and readable in 1921 though in 3 pieces. She finds the
Faney Bulet stone at Old Blacksville Cemetery,, etc.

> It is very clear that Isaac, the father of Thomas married a Fanny
Bulliitt(sic) Boulet, bulet bullett etc. Finding an Isaac who was of MD and
not PA of the Irish Calvert line was a very big find. There is in the
records of PA an Isaac who marries an Elizabeth Gart. He is suupposed out of
somerset according to somee researchers but at least we can say that there
are possibly two isaacs who have association with West PA.

After reading two E-mails with Marion in the name and also Ohio I am
wondering if my James Calvert came from there. I know he ended up in Campbell County,
Kentucky and married Lydia Rardin there in 1836 before coming to Missouri.
Linda
I have a grandfather, James Ayrton, born in Burnley, Lancashire, England in 1843. A sister, Elizabeth, born in Aug 02, 1846 later married a Richard Calvert. Does anybody have any information on this Calvert? My primary interest is the Ayrton line but would like to know what became of the Calverts. I have reason to believe that some of them landed in Massachusetts in the late 1880's. Thanks for listening.

Jim,
I hope Mr. Maples is doing all right since his accident.
Here are the names and dates I have on my Ancestors and family.
James Calvert born 1812 in Ohio moved to Kentucky. Married Lydia Rardin
daughter of Jacob Rardin and Elizabeth Behymer. They moved to or around Nodaway,
Missouri or Amazonia, Missouri in Andrew County.
James was remarried in Doniphan County, Kansas to Angeline Allumbaugh.
Records show his name as John Calvert there.
James (John) Calvert born 1812 in Ohio. (Great-Greatgrandfather.)
Lydia (Rardin) Calvert born 1818.
(Children)
Basil Calvert born 1837 in Kentucky.
Marion Calvert born 1839 in Kentucky.
George Mansfield Calvert (Greatgrandfather) born August 16,1840 in
Louisville, Kentucky. Died January 31, 1914 in Nodaway, Missouri. buried at Caples
Cemetery.
Nancy Calvert born 1844 in Kentucky.
Mary Elizabeth born 1846 in Kentucky.
Hannibal Calvert born 1849 in Kentucky.
I am sorry but that is all the information I have on them. I have no dates
only years on them. I also have my Grandfather and his siblings if you need
them for Mr. Maples. I would love to find out about my family tree more. My
dad's name was James and so is my brothers. There are a lot of James.
Thank you so much. Linda (Calvert) S.
Linda, my ggrandfather was William Marion Calvert Born 1832 Belmont Co., OH
We could never figure where the name Marion came from. This is strange it shows up in your line also.

Hi, I'm llooking for information on John Calvert who was born around 1810 in Virginia and married Jane Meanford. She was born around 1808 in Ohio. They had at least three children while they were living in Ohio. At some point either the entire family or some of the children settled in Illinois. Any information would be great. Thanks. Donna
I can't fit my Thomas Calvert into either the Lord Baltimore or the Quaker
groups. His daughter, Sarah, married William Cooling in Cecil Co, MD in
1823. I have no other clues as to his parentage. The Coolings were
Methodists.

When you think about genealogy, you are thinking history. Having found Thomas C. Calvert Sr in Greene Co PA, Will, documentation, vendue, etc I knew for certain that there is a very succinct history to this family line. I do know this via seconary documentation: THomas Father was Isaac who married Fanny Bullitt(sic). other researchers who know the Calverts and other lines well would indicate this is the Bullitts out of VA. I thought early on that Frances Bullitt was the wife of Isaac but she is too young. I presume still, that thinking this is a valid assumption, based on locale and origination of the Calverts out of MD and
VA.
To be sure, there is an Isaac Calvert of the John Calvert Line most likely, he is found in chester and probably a brother to the
John and Daniel Calvert there, or the Thomas or the Joshua who m Deborah Harlan and is associated with the Chenowith family line and/or the Hollingsworth. But Truthfully I can say there is no inkling anywhere in my family of a quaker association, except by marriage. There are 5 family lines that have passed down the fact that these Calverts of first, Western VA are out of MD: My Calvert family, The Harlan Carnely Lemasters and Taylors, all 5 family groups having a heritage of the same story: Thomas and his ancestors were from Maryland.

There is a transcription of a newspaper article in the files at
Cornerstone genealogy. I had seen this quite some time ago. It was John Calvert came in to pay his bill and he told a story of his family. At first, I could not make the connection until we figured out the brothers and sisters of my THomas C. Calvert Jr. Then (sigh by gawd as a later descendent of this Thomas was wont to say), it hit me. Had I not gone to Greene County, I would never have found any of this. I would never have had the sense to go back again and again and I will be there again just after thanksgiving.
Even the research story gets interesting but anyway, this John D names names which are in the faamily and ends up saying in the news article, that sure, my family is from 'Bucks Lancaster, England.' This tells me that John D Calvert who told the reporter this story in 1881 knew where he was from and from the family to which his ancestry belonged.
I cannot say if he meant Bucks meaning the county in PA. Or Lancaster the county in VA or PA or in the UK meaning Buckinghamshire which is south and east of Yorkshire. It certainly meant that a 76 year old man knew his family heritage was from England.
Well, I will buy that. Of course the presumption on my part was this was so all along.

My Calverts were from Scottsville, Allen Co., Ky and from Portland, Sumner
Co. Tn. Scottsville is in the lower middle of Ky. and Portland is the upper

Brenda,
Could these Calvert's be from Scott County Kentucky? My great, great
grandparents Were John and Elvessa Cannon Calvert. Here is the article I was
sent from a book about Historic Scott County houses.
In 1859 Juliet Branham, Widow of James Branham and guardian of Richard
Branham's children, deeded John Calvert 223 acres on Cedar Creek. Calvert,
son of pioneer John and Sarah Johnson Calvert, had moved about prior to this
final settling down. In 1831 he was operating a hotel in Owen County and in 1835
he moved to Indiana for nine years. In 1845 he returned to Scott County,
living with his parents until 1859. His second wife was Elveesa Cannon.
John and Elveesa Calvert sold a portion of the farm on which the old log
house stood to Samuel Estes in 1882 and 1886. In 1904 the Estes sold the
farm then consisting of 111.3 acres to Elias H. Wise. Wise sold the place to
Daniel Bailey in 1917; and in 1956 the Baileys sold the farm to Joe Johnson. It
was bought by Delbert and Helen Barber in 1957. Sources: Perrin, 624,625,
Scott County deed and will books. Thanks, Joyce

I would be interested in getting a scanned copy of the death cert or a fax copy. I appreciate all the help you have provided. thanks, David

David,
I got the information on James Calvert's wife from her death certificate.
She was his wife in 1860 and 1870. I have not found them on any 1850 census
yet. So, I figured they might have been on their way to Michigan.
James died in 1861. I have a copy of his will. They were in Michigan in
1860. Three of James' sons were in the Civil War, namely John, James W. and
Franklin M.
John and James were in battle, Franklin deserted. I do not know anything
about Sylvanus as he died 1862 at the age of 29. I suspect he may have
fought but from another state. I have never found any record of it. I have
copies of John and James and Franklin's Civil War papers which state they
were born in Belmont County, Ohio.

from 1828 to 1845 during the time their children were born, but at the time
I was looking, I didn't know they had also had a daughter. So, now I am
wondering if they were all living with another family and if so, since it
was before 1850, they won't be individually listed on the census so that is
what I am going to start searching for now.

Hi, this note is in response to Precioustwins request for information about
Alice Calvert...I am also a descendant of Alice Calvert and have information to
share with any interested person who is researching this family. Please email
me directly at csmitjam(a)aol.com. Debbie - Anne, I am looking forward to
talking with you. Pat James
Debbie, this is beside the subject of genealogy. But, when I was a
missionary in Cameroun, West Africa in the 1950-60s we had a very active
Industrial Arts high school which was named Frank James after a benefactor.
Could that have been yours?
