I am trying to confrim that Rachel WYATT the wife of my John is the daughter of Caleb Callaway and Elizabeth Laurence. I had someone tell me she was the granddaughter and not the daughter. His will calls her his daughter, but that is not good enough for the person. If there is anyone who might have a referrence to a deed that clearly says Rachel was Caleb's daughter. And Elizabeth Wyatt Oates his granddaughter. please contact me LeBateman@NetZero.Net, or write me Jacob L. Bateman III 3870 Strathmore Drive Montgomery Alabama 36116-4614.

Is anyone researching the CALLAWAY families who were in MS (specifically Choctaw and Winston counties) and TX (specifically Anderson and Limestone counties) from 1850 onward? I am particularly interested in William CALLAWAY and his possible sons Jesse, William J., Isaac, and J.H.W. (I don't know what those initials stood for). William was in Choctaw Co. MS in 1850 then moved to Springfield, Limestone Co. TX where he evidently died 1860-1870. Living nearby were his possible sons J.H.W. CALLAWAY, Jesse CALLAWAY, and William J. CALLAWAY. In 1860 William J. CALLAWAY and Jesse CALLAWAY were living next-door to one another in Magnolia, Anderson Co. TX. The elder William CALLAWAY and J.H.W. CALLAWAY were living next-door to one another in Springfield, Limestone Co. TX. Jesse was dead by 1870 (killed in the Civil War?) because his wife Lettie was living alone with her kids in Palestine, Anderson Co. TX. William J. CALLAWAY was also living in Pallestine in 1870. The elder William CALLAWAY was dead by 1870 because his widow Hannah was living alone in Limestone Co. TX (possibly with kids, I haven't seen the entire page yet). I don't see J.H.W. CALLAWAY or his wife Susan at all in TX, so I'm not sure what happened to them in 1870. Isaac CALLAWAY was in Winston Co. MS in 1850 and 1860. He and his wife Asenathe are buried in the Antioch Baptist Church Cemetery there. Isaac served in the Civil War and died sometime between 1870 and 1900 (I haven't seen the 1880 census yet). His grave has no marker so wasn't recorded with the other graves in that cemetery when the locals compiled a book. His sons James Monroe CALLAWAY and Michael H. CALLAWAY and daughter Lettie were all still living in Winston Co. MS in 1900. Lettie, Michael, and their brother Lemuel are all buried with their parents in the Antioch cemetery. If anyone can help me figure out if these folks are really all one family and the ancestry of the elder William CALLAWAY I'd really appreicate it. I'm particularly interested in finding out if he was the William CALLOWAY who was in Benton Co. AL in 1840. That William did have a son named Isaac who married Asenath GRAHAM, so it looks promising. The ages and family make-up looks promising, too. Vickie Elam White

Does anyone have a copy of the Callaway Journal Volume 14 (1989) and could photocopy the "Callaway Census Errata" article for me? I am willing to pay copying costs and postage. Thanks. Vickie Elam White

The CFA site contains various census records for CALLAWAYs. On the 1820 Jasper Co. GA census there is supposedly a James CALLAWAY. However, when I search the AIS census indexes at Ancestry.com, using the soundex so that spelling varients won't matter, there is no mention of a James CALLAWAY in Jasper Co. in 1820. Has anyone actually seen this James' entry? Is the mistake in the CFA site or the AIS indexes? Vickie Elam White

Sorry if everyone is getting tired of my rather frequent posts lately, but I seem to be making pretty good progress with my CALLAWAY line. I am virtually certain that the William CALLAWAY in Newton Co. GA in 1830 was my ancestor. He was in Benton Co. AL (now Calhoun Co.) in 1840. I am wondering if the William CALLAWAY who was in Oglethorpe Co. GA in 1820 and 1824 was the same man who later moved to Newton Co. by 1830? The household seems to match except for an older daughter who wasn't on the 1830 census, but she could have married by then. Also, there is an Asa COLAWAY listed on the 1820 Oglethorpe Co. GA census, p. 193. He isn't listed in the Callaway Family Association website census records. Was he accidentally missed? Does anyone know about him? Does anyone have access to that census so he can be added to the database? I appreciate any help on this. Vickie Elam White

WEBBER) Britannia HITCH b. 1856-57 Sarah HITCH b. 1858-59 Elizabeth HITCH b. 1864-65 I'm looking for the parent Elizabeth CALLAWAY! Her parents may be Levin/Leven CALLAWAY & Elizabeth NICHOLS but I don't have proof. I'm also interested in Britannia, Sarah & Elizabeth--who did they m.?

Correction to my last post. William CALLAWAY was born 1780-1790 in MD not MO. Vickie Elam White

Looking for ancestry and info on William CALLAWAY b. 1780-1790 in MO. He was living somewhere in GA in 1824 when his daughter Nancy Caroline was born. He was in Benton Co. AL (now Calhoun Co. AL) in 1840. His wife evidently died by 1840, place unknown. According to the 1840 Benton Co. AL census, he had the following children: James b. 1800-1810 Isaac b. 1810-1820 daughter b. 1810-1820 Nancy Caroline b. 16 Jun 1824 in GA son b. 1825-1830 son b. 1825-1830 son b. 1825-1830 There was a William CALLAWAY on the 1820 Ogelthorpe Co. GA census. Does anyone know about this man? Was he the son of Isaac and Winifred (RAGAN) CALLAWAY of Wilkes Co. GA? I appreciate any help on this. Vickie Elam White

I'm looking for info on William CALLOWAY who appears on the 1840 Benton Co. (now Calhoun Co.) AL census next-door to his son Isaac. They came from GA sometime after 1824 because their daughter Nancy Caroline (my ancestor) was born that year in GA according to census records. I don't know where in GA they lived. Nancy Caroline CALLOWAY married David HYATT in Benton Co. AL (now Calhoun Co.) in 1841. Any "cousins" out there? Vickie Elam White

Elizabeth Jones was reportedly born 1733. Her tombstone in French Cemetery in KY reportedly states this. Her second marriage was to Richard Callaway. Richard Callaway married 1st - Frances Walton. I did find this in St. Peter's Parish records - "Register of St. Peter's Parish, page 108, Frans ye Daughter of Robr & Frans Walton born 14th Jany, 1726-7. " Frances Walton Callway reportedly died in 1766 in Bedford and Richard Callaway then married Elizabeth Jones Hoy 1767/68. This would have made Elizabeth approx. 34 years old at the time of her marriage to Callaway. All of the information above seems reasonable - until you add the information on John Hoy to the equation. John Hoy b. 1677 married unknown. Son John Hoy b. 1699 died abt. 1767 Buckingham County, Va; married Elizabeth Jones abt 1745. This means Elizabeth Jones would have married John Hoy when she was 12 years old. Not only do I feel this is improbable - it is highly unlikely. Contrary to some reports, marrying at a young age was not a common practice in colonial Virginia. The average age for a woman was in her early twenties. Also note the tremendous age difference between John Hoy (b. 1699) and Elizabeth Jones (b.1733) - this again, makes the union, if the dates are correct - highly unlikely. There were several prominent Jones families in Buckingham county where John Hoy reportedly died about 1767. Then we have the problem of the two reported sons of John Hoy and Elizabeth Jones; John Booker Hoy and William Hoy. I have had reports that John Booker Hoy was married and had his son, Thomas, in 1764 in Campbell Co. And William was not of age when his father's will was written in 1765 but he is supposed to have married in 1767. This would have made it impossible for John Booker Hoy and William Hoy to be the sons of Elizabeth Jones Hoy Callaway. I found a 1720 St. James Co. VA patent for John Hoy that mentions Elizabeth Hoy. They acquired Escheat Land - Land ownership reverting to the Crown, government, or estate owner because of a lack of heirs. I think this is close to proof that there were two Elizabeth Hoy's. There is no way that the Elizabeth Jones Hoy who married Richard Callaway could have been named on a land patent in 1720. How or if they are related, who knows? Could they have been her parents? Or the parents of her husband? Then we have a John Hoy patent 10 March 1756 "256a on both sides of the North Fork of the Slate River" - and in 1748 400a on both sides of the Slate, c and 400a on both sides of Willis Creek in 1755. Then in 1756 John Hoy patents land in Bedford Co. My John Jones (of Buckingham) line and his children had land on the Slate River as well. Elizabeth Hoy patents land on 10 March 1756 225a on both sides of a branch of Willis Creek known as Tongue's Quarter's. I have been told that a female could patent land and in some instances, they were heirs finishing patents initiated by their husband or a family member. John Hoy is obviously still alive in 1756, as he is patenting land here as well. Keziah Callaway was reportedly the daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Jones Hoy Callaway. The given name "Keziah" is somewhat unusual - but occurs in the earlier Jones generations of Buckingham Co., VA. I strongly feel that Elizabeth Jones Hoy Callaway is related to my Jones line in Buckingham. But there are obviously critical errors in repeated genealogies involving Elizabeth Jones Hoy Callaway. Any thoughts on sorting this out?? Thanks!

I'm looking forward to hearing more about Thomas Callaway Russell. Phyllis ____________________________________________________________________ Get your own FREE, personal Netscape WebMail account today at http://webmail.netscape.com.

Thomas Callaway Russell sounds vaguely familiar. I may have something in the files that fits him - but it will require a dig. Give me a day or two and I will investigate. Sherrill U. Williams [Genealogist, CFA, Inc.]

I see there are others interested in the Thomas Callaway name. I'm providing the folowing data for those that may be interested. Thomas Callaway Russell Thomas was born to parents William M Russell, Jr and Rosella Craig. Thomas is said to have been born April 24, 1843, probably in Bedford Co, TN. He was known to all of the family as 'Uncle Cal'. He made the migration from Bedford Co, TN to the Batesville, AR area in early 1861. Thomas Callaway Russell enlisted with the AR Cavalry Volunteer, 2nd regiment, Company C Roster. He is said to have died in action on King's river near Berryville, AR on June 10, 1864. There are at least 4 men in the Russell family that have the Callaway name as part of their name. I have not made the correct connection to the Callaway family as yet. I'm interested in knowing what others think of the data above?
