good evening lsit.
My name is Debbie and i live in Pace, Florida, a sub of Pensacola.
It has been a few years since i have ben on the Calvert list, I ahd
run into a block, and decided to work on my ggrandmothers maternal
side, and that side took off, with about 24 surnames of fmailies
in England,
now with more genealogy knowlege, im ready to tackle my CLAVERT side,
This is what i know...
MY GGRANDFATHER Harry Percy Calvert, born Feb 12, 1874 inSabden,
Lancashire, England His father's name is the only thing i know,
which is JONATHAN HINDLE CALVERT.. Harry took off for Philleigh,
Cornwall, England around 1900 to invest in the clay fields, and that
is where he met my ggrandmother Caroline Corneila Fookes... and they
married Feb. 11, 1902, They had four children and in on Sept 27,
1909, my ggrandfather came over to America, to invest in a dress maker
shop with another gentlemen, Two months later, my ggrandmother, and
the four children came over, Now where they went form there im not sure,
I know that eventually they ended up in columbus Ohio, where my
ggrandfather died March 1936.. My ggrandmother lived with her
youngest daughter, Katy... My granmother and her older brother moved on to
Buffalo , New York, where they were married.
I have no idea when my ggrandmother Cornelia died or where, as my
great aunt Katy, 92 years old, cant remember that, She is the only one
fo the four still alive.
I have a cousin, Ricky Calvert either in NC or SC where i have no
idea.
Iam looking for any helpful hints on how or where i can find out about
my ggrandmother,
Also anyone researching this name in the Lancashire area i would love to
hear form.
thank you all
Happy Hunting!!!
Debbie
