Dear Calvert Researchers,
Thanks to all of you who have so patiently waited for me to answer your queries about my
first message. I have been doing some major home remodeling and was offline for several
weeks. Anyway, here is what I have on my elusive Mary Calvert.
This information came to me from my great aunt and is supplemented by own research.
My great aunt gave me a typed page of notes that appear to have been copied from a Bible
(or two) at some time during the 1920s (from the letterhead on the paper). This is her
list and a few of my notes, in parentheses, follow each entry.
John White born September 1770 lived on a farm near Winchester Va. (died 1854, buried
Burnt Factory UMC near Winchester, headstone missing)
Mary Calvert born February 22, 1771 (died 1823, buried Burnt Factory UMC) sister of Jesse
Calvert (born circa 1776, maybe Maryland [per 1850 census], died 1863, married second
Theresa Wood sister of Robert S. Wood of Ohio[?]. Jesse Calvert donated the land for this
church.
These two married and had the following children:
Nancy White born November 15, 1790 (married John Stephens 1816, Rev. Tilden)

(daughter of Margaret [Scrivener?]and Jacob Leonard) February 26, 1828 by the Reverend Ed.
Smith and had the following children:

parents of Mary and Jesse Calvert, I would be most grateful!
