Hello Karen,
I think I may be descended from Martin Calvert/Colvert/Covert. I'm trying to find if
my gr gr gr grandfather Robert Covert (b. 1791 in VA) of Adams Co. Ohio was his son.
WE've just found out that our Coverts are part of the Calvert line through the DNA
project.
You state that Martin and Asa are brothers. Do you have evidence? I know that Martin was
the bondsman at Asa's 1799 wedding. Martin went by Covert and Cobert when he moved to
KY and then to OHio. He's found in KY in 1810 through 1819 and then not again until
1830 in Brown Co., OHio where, according ot the census, was between 70 and 80 years old.
