Hi Jim,
I actually responded to this last night and lost the email when
connection went down.
My line is Thomas (C.) b 1769 or 1784 M Anna Ewing
Thomas Clare b 1803 M Elizabeth Johnson
Alabert Gallatin b1830 m Mary A. Polly Cain
John Ewing b1856 M Martha Lemasters
Arthur Clay b 1876 M 2 Lena Essinger M3 Amanda Rose
Dorthey Lee b 1922 M Edwin Bell
To back up to the common thread though: I have two different sources
of Info on Thomas Father and both Show an Isaac who married either
Fanny or Frances LNU. I believe this to be Frances Bullitt do of
Cuthbert Bullitt. I have two lines documenting her, two sources of
doc for her. But note This is family is In VA and before that MD
which is where my line of Calverts and the Lemasters have the same
family story...VA and then MD.
This does not mean that the 3 Calverts in the 1810 Greene Co Census
are not my line. The Brother of Thomas Clare was Hugh Ewing Calvert B1805 who had a son
Reason (Resin/Rezin). Hugh Married Sarah Ann Miller
and they are both buried in PA. So there is a connection.
I doubt my two sources are correct. If Thomas (C.) was Commissioned by
Harrison for w of 1812, Ft. Meigs and Tippecanoe then I doubt his B/D
of 1769. Still more, It would seem odd that the Isaac of 1735 is then
the parent.
I have discussed this with Dean Mills who is going to Greene Co I understand this
spring/summer for on the ground research. But he indicates that Thomas is in his family
line as well, who married Anna.
Just like my own research has indicated, there are too many 30+year
gaps unless Isaac had a second marriage and ditto Thomas (C.) b1769.
to Thomas Clare B 1803.
So when he and I were discussing it, we discussed the gaps.
I await anything Dean finds....he is a Descendent of George Dye by the way.
There is a Ray Calvert who lives in PA who is also trying to sort this
out. He has visited my 2nd cousin Ray Calvert of Wetzel Co PA. I discussed with him the
situation and he referred me to two other people, on a Pyles(also one of my kindred
Families). I am writing him
a synopsis as well hoping to sort this out but he returns to Wetzel
county in June.
I am pretty sure that there is a mixing up of at least 2 different families here.
My sources for the family line have sloppy work, one a book by RD Furlong entitled
(Dulany-Furlong and Kindred families). The second
an investigation by a researcher from Wetzel County the outfit named
TimeTravelers, now defunct. They Both Show Isaac, one 1735, the other
BD unknown, one noting Fanny the other noting a Frances.
I know that Albert Gallatin was born in Monongalia Co. VA. His father
Thomas C., wife Elizabeth and all issue show born in VA in census records. For a time the
family used the name Colbert but by 1850, after
THomas apparent death, the name in Census records indicates Calvert.
The name Documented in Hardesty's for Thomas(C.) THomas CLare and
ALbert Gallatin is Calvert.
One of those anomolies.
1810 Greene Co shows Isaac, Thomas and Ezekiel. They appear to be brothers and Isaac
certainly of similar age category which couldn't be
the Isaac of 1735. Isaac b then would have been 40 at the time of
the battle at Brandywine. Ezekiel supposedly married a Rhoda DeBolt but
I haven't figured that out for sure though I did communicate with a
DeBolt family researcher in this regard.
I am familiar with your line to the extent of the orphaning of children
at 1781. Is it likely that this is the brother of Isaac b 1735 with
issue still minors? and do you have any direct tie to the line of
Quaker Calverts? or anything to make you believe that Reason, his
father or Isaac was a quaker?
It doesn't matter to me which line my thomas is in. I just want to
sort it out and find out where it goes.
Last there is Jesse McCandless Baker who has
OaktreeGenealogy.com
also with whom I have communicated.
I am slowly transribing hardcopy research my Mother and Father did
for many years. Mother tired of it about 1995 and turned it over to
me.
Lastly the farm where Reason is buried along with Lucretia lies near
the township of Deepwater in Cass county. The plot lies at the foot
of an area that was called Amarugia Highlands. This is about 17 miles
from the farm where I grew up......and the name of my trilogy of
Novella's is to be "Amarugia".

I have just returned to the list and noticed with interest the thread on Isaac Calvert in
Feb and March.
My gg-grandfather, Hiram Calvert, was born in Greene Co., PA in 1804. Hiram founded
Hiramsburg, OH in what was later Noble Co., but in 1835 was Noble Twp. of Morgan Co., OH.
Hiram had three brothers: Isaac, Jabez, and Reason. Their father Robert Calvert died in
1805 in Greene Co., PA, orphaning the children. Their mother, Alice, was administratix
for the orphan proceedings and also administratix of Robert's estate. Bond was paid
by Isaac Calvert.
Isaac Calvert of Chester Co., did have a son named Robert. This is noted in Smedley, in a
will (1781) by Isaac's brother Thomas who leaves a hat to brother Isaac's son,
Robert.
According to one source, which I cannot corroborate, Isaac had sons' Robert and
William, and a daughter Sarah. But a Sarah Calvert did marry George Dye in Greene Co.,
and both are found in Morgan Co., OH in 1820, along with an older male and female. So
also is William Calvert in 1830. William Calvert and his nephew, Reason Calvert both
married into the Cotton family.
The link between the Calvert family of Greene Co., PA and Morgan Co. OH is quite strong.
Not so strong is that between the Isaac and Robert of Chester Co. and the Isaac and Robert
of Greene Co. After the 1790 census, though, the next instance of an Isaac Calvert in PA
is that in Greene Co.
