To Web Folks and James, I am sort of out of the loop lately, but I believe James is right about the JOHN Calvert from Bald Eagle township, Pa, tying in to the Central Ohio Calverts, and more likely back to the Quaker Calverts than to either the Maryland Catholics or County Armagh Ireland, Presbyterians. This central Pa. JOHN and his descendents should not be confused with the ROBERT arriving in the western Pa county of Venango in 1795 nor with the descendents of the JOHN of 1793 arrival in New York whose descendents came to Pa first to Mercer and Crawford Counties and later mixed with the descendents of ROBERT in Venango County. By he time of his later "mixing" they were all Protestants but Robert's descendents tended to be Episcopalian and this JOHN's descendents were Scotch Covenanter Presbyterians, later tending toward Christian Missionary Alliance and other sort of Fundamentalist religious preferences.

My CALVERTs had some connection with PA too (and Ohio). My Great Great Great Grandfather Hiram CALVERT is said to have been buried in PA. We think that his Brother was called John. This family was Roman Catholic, and were from Strabane in Northern Ireland (though I would not say they originated there).
While everyone is looking in O'Gorman, would someone see if there is a listing for a John Calvert in Bald Eagle Township of Mifflin County, PA (later Centre County) circa 1785-1795.

We believe he is the father of Jacob, John, Job and possibly Sarah Calvert who settled in Belmont County, Ohio circa 1800.

Hello Calvert Researchers! I am new to the list - hoping to find some clarification and confirmation regarding some ancestors of mine. Priscilla Calvert b. 1764-1765 VA to Jesse Calvert and Mary/Mollica Brown. Priscilla married John B. Leatherwood b. 2/1760 VA to Jane Calvert and Zachariah Leatherwood. Wondering how Priscilla/Jesse and Jane were related. Also wondering if the 100+ pages of Jesse's royal ancestry I found at the LDS site is true - has anyone prooven that info or know anything otherwise? Thank you! Christina Huvelle [email protected]
There is a Leona Calvert listed in the book, Was she married to a Thomas Williams and born May 24, 1908?Wilma Roebuck
I have a copy of the O Gorman book that was my grandmothers.also some of her original notes that she sent to her. My grandmother was disappointed that a direct line was never established. She went to Maryland looking for information. At one time I think there was a manor house there that belonged to the Calverts. We had Calvert Reunions in Columbus Ohio when I was young. I have alist of the people that attended them. My grandmother roused my interest and I hope to learn more. Wilma
Tsalag, The Descendants of Virginia Calverts book by Ella O'Gorman is what we've been referring to. the word "Virginia" is to be taken lightly as Ms. O'Gorman takes it from the top, i.e. Maryland, PA, etc. Of course there are errors, but it's the most definitive genealogy of the Calverts you will see. I became a believer when Don Foxworthy pointed it out to me ten years ago and I spotted my Martin Calvert and daughter Julia Ann Calvert Faris there in little old Howard County, Missouri complete with the entire line back to the Revolution, just what I needed for my DAR paper. It's in most large libraries. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Friday, January 07, 2000 2:45 PM Subject: [CALVERT-L] John Calvert of Frederick Co., Va. >OK peoples whats this book of Va Calverts?

Hi George, I've been wanting to do this for some time now, but don't have a copy of the text! I'm planning this month (or next) to purchase a copy from Higginson's. Perhaps after that we can arrange something here within the list where those of us who have scanning and OCR software can work on that portion and those who have the book but not the software could volunteer to do proofing? We could even split the book up into sections... and those who don't have the book could be sent a copy of their "section" to proof. Anyone interested? (besides me of course!)

Perhaps I can help. William Calvert who married Elizabeth Nodding is presented on pages 661 thru 677 in Descendants of Virginia Calverts by Ella Foy O'Gorman. These pages could be "scanned" , stored as "image files", and then translated by an "optical recognition program" to generate "text files". The end result would be that all the researchers would have the complete text of pages 661 to 677 in form they could easily use for their research. (Also, I already have the the first 5 generations of the mainline of the Virginia Calverts in a text file, plus most of the 6th generation.) i enjoy helping others research their family lines, and would be glad to help with this. I can do the scanning and I have the latest version of an "optical recognition program", however there is a lot of proof-reading and correcting needed to generate accurate "text files". Any interest in doing this?

update on the William Calvert's parents' mystery,( documenting Cynthia Crupper Calvert, grandaughter of William and Eliz Nodding Calvert) ....As I went to bed last night I found the marriage record for a Cynthia Hawkins to Henderson Durnill in 1850 in Boone County, Missouri, married by a James B. Harris. on page 36 of the Evans/Thompson Marriages for Boone County 1821-1870. I note that Henderson Durnill is shown on the census earlier that year as age 36 as a head of the household of several boys, apparently a widower. It now appears that Cynthia, too, had been previously married, to a Hawkins, and was indeed, as the O'Gorman book indicates, the wife of Henderson Durnil as the date for the marriage of Cynthia Calvert in the O'Gorman book and that of Cnythia Hawkins in the Boone County marriage book are both October of 1850. Interestingly, back to the 1850 census showing Henderson Durnill as a head of household, his next door neighbors' surname is none other than Hawkins. However there is no Cynthia therein.

Paul, I think I used the wrong word in my loose quote from Gladys Calvert Durnill's aunt's letter, it says William and Cynthia Calvert "named a daughter" Cynthia Crupper Calvert, rather than "christened" her. Cynthia Crupper Calvert Hawkins (?) and her (second?) husband, Henderson Durnill died within days of each other and are buried near Carrollton, MO, but I assume the gravestone for Cnythia is not where we are to hope to find her middle name. Too bad the letter does not really say how it is known, must be the family Bible. There again Gladys Calvert Durnill would be our best source as to where to look for any Calvert/Durnill family Bibles. Looks as tho we've several points to ask Gladys about. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Bardell <[email protected]> To: Laura Crane <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, January 05, 2000 1:13 PM Subject: Cynthia (Crupper?)

RE the "William Calvert mystery" The letter to Mrs. Goodman. in possession of Gladys Calvert Durnill explains she *("the elderly aunt") chooses Ann and George as the Crupper connection rather than the other Calvert/Crupper couple Jacob and Sarah (Crupper) Calvert for the parents of William because the Carroll county family reunions included some of the Deatheridge stepcousins. George had married a Mrs. Deatheridge after Ann Crupper Calvert died, ....

Her dad was William the son of William. I see by my notes this is Gladys Calvert Durnill's line so I guess maybe Gladys may be from Boonville. That's Cooper County rather than Boone. I wonder if I could find Cynthia's marriage record in Cooper County since I don't see it in Boone as she was born there in Cooper County. Astonishingly enough tho I do find a Henderson Durnill head of household,# 1869, in Boone County in the 1850 census book. It appears Henderson Durnill is a widower age 36 born in VA with children in the household William P Eli N James H Benjamine F Jerome H Calvert and a James Cato and James Perdin. Whoops, here's something interesting in the Boone County Marriage Book>>>> Cynthia HAWKINS and Henderson B Durnill are wed on Oct 10, 1850 in Boone County, MO. Now I guess I've got to find where Cynthia Crupper Calvert married a Hawkins first??? I'll have to sign off there are 6 pages to look up Hawkins in 1850 book for Boone County. I guess she's a widow on the next farm in the summer of 1850. More later.

My ggrandfather is Martin Calvert & is in the O'Gorman book. What county's census is Cynthia & Henderson on in 1860? Rocheport is in Boone County & I have a book desk copy of Boone for 1850 and 1860. But I assume she & Henderson Durnill are not in Boone. Probably Howard or Cooper ? Interesting that Gladys Calvert also married a Durnil! I assume they are related. Suppose we could get some data by going the Durnill route with Gladys. I don't know much about the Baptist church around the time of the American Revolution.

To those of you who are descendants of William Calvert and Elizabeth Nodding and son John and Dorcas (Collier) Calvert, would you be interested in hearing a re-hash of how we apparently do connect with the main branch of the Calverts? You may have already discussed this problem as mentioned in Mrs. Ella O-Gorman's 1940's excellent book. I am a long-time genealogist but new to the Calvert list. The theory is that our William, in fact, descends from George and Ann (Crupper) Calvert, that the latter couple did have a son, our William Calvert b 1757, (Mrs. O'Gorman's researchers do treat William Calvert but in a separate section of he book She was not aware of the apparent connection to George and Ann (Crupper) Calvert. William's grandaughter a Cynthia Crupper Calvert shows up being Christened as Cynthia CRUPPER Calvert, thus verifying that our William has to be a son of the George Calvert and Ann Crupper. (George later marries a Ms. Deatherage) I'll get the dates for the participants for you in an upcoming message should I hear feedback showing interest in this trivia.
