Well that was fun.
So does the George Calvert from O'Gormans book Issue #50 and the DAR text
listed "George Calvert and Anne Crupper, his wife, m. 1740. " AND
"George Calvert (1712-82) was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses,
and in 1781 was appointed captain by Thomas Jefferson, of the Culpeper
militia. He was born in Prince William County, Va.; died in Culpeper County"
that is listed in DAR report section below match up correctly?
If they do, why are there not more descendants of this George members in the
DAR. (or maybe they
are and I can't find them).
Not looking for DAR entry. Just puzzled that a source with high potential
seems so empty.
