In researching the potential ancestor for my oldest known, I had found Alexander Calvert, father of Isaac Calvert of Greene Co PA. So much fit that I thought that I was on the right track. Isaac was identified as Colvert Colbert and Calvert in various venues. His older Brother William also, as they are identified as Colbert in the census of 1890 Queen Anne's Co MD. One known son via a court record of Isaac Calvert is Levin who is identified as both Calvert and Colbert.
Alexander Calvert was b c 1720, I believe in MD but cannot prove it. He is the likely son of William Calvert, Planter, born my guess, c 1690 - 1705. by 1726 he is a Planter as Identified in perogative court records, Coventry Parish, 1726 and 1733. He is the right age and locale to be the father of Alexander Calvert; William is in Tax lists 1730-1740.
Ella F. O'Gorman, in letters to John Bailey Calvert Nicklin suggested taht JBCN seek the surname Colbert when searching for Calverts descended from William Calvert, PSOM 1642/3 - 1682(Drowned Wicomico R, border of Somerset County.
Alexander married Mary Wheeler 1744 Coventry Parish Episcopal Church.
Children of church record:
William Wheeler b 1744/45
Isaac b 1746/7
Alexander Neal 1753
Betty 1756.
In another record of the county is Belle, b 1759.
Alexander Neal is in Census data, Dividing creek. In 1810, if I recall the correct census, there is a Michael Colbert, and Alexander N Colbert.
Isaac himself is still in Somerset as Colvert in 1820 so he isn't the Isaac of Greene Co PA(My Isaac Calvert).
Isaac has a son, William Colbert according to two of the researchers whom I have communicated regularly, and a son,
Levin, whom I found in court records last week, mentioned in the Will of a Samuel Handy as Levin, son of Isaac Colbert.
THere is a marriage record, Old Swedes CHurch, New Castle Co DE of Isaac Calvert and Elizabeth Gart. The researchers pointing at this indicate this is the marriage of Isaac Calvert / Colbert who is the father of William Colbert noted above. This William, b 1768, married Bridgett Howard in 1796. I will leave the remainder of this descent to those researching William. I believe he is the William in the Queen Anne's County Census of 1790 who then followed the common westward migration into Western VA, PA and Ohio and KY(William certainly the latter).
I have passed on to Ray Colbert what I had found on all of these SOmerset County Colberts and Calverts but would be
glad to do so for anyone else. I do believe they are Calvert. One particular Calvert associated family is the
Doyne Family who were in St. Mary's County. One brother, Ethelbert lived in Somerset County and he died there. His brothers Jesse and Joshua at least, related to the descendents of Robert Doyne whose dau. Elizabeth married George Calvert the elder born 1668 who lived in St. Mary's and migrated to Stafford County, VA.
From the records, William Calvert b 1690-1705 probably married a Nancy. I think she may have been Nancy Handy.
There is a lot more material that I can provide for anyone interested.
Regards,
David Bell
