Notes for MERRIFIELD CALVERT OR COLBERT:
Merrifield Colvert, a well-to-do farmer of Trimble County, Ky. Spelled his name with an
"o". Two Census records give his birth place as Kentucky. His grandson writes
that he came from Shelby Co., Ky. (where he was probably born,) to Henry county where he
was married when Trimble Co., was formed, it took him into that county without changing
the location of his home.
His will dated 11 June. 1879. Probated Jan. 12, 1880 mentions by name but two of his
children: his daughter Malinda Duvall to whom he gave $700; and his Clark O. Calvert who
received all the rest of his estate" because he has stayed with me and taken care me
in my old age and helpless and crippled condition, and that I have heretofore at various
times made advancements in land, money and other things to my other children to the full
amount of all I desire to give them: etc.
