Surnames: Calvert Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/WQH.2ACEB/985.1.1 Message Board Post: Joanne..........Yes, I have noticed you have a familiar name as I have read some of your messages. I also took notice since my Mother's maiden name was Calvert. To answer your question about John the brother of George Calvert. We have been able to trace our family history back to Leonard Calvert & Alicia Crossland and our ancestor is John Calvert. Since Leonard was the father of George he is the father of our John. The children that our family history has for Leonard & Alicia: Robert b. 1576 George b. 1579 Mary 1586 John 1587 Leonard 1606 I know the most about my ancestor John of course. When he fled from Yorkshire Eng. he settled in Northern Ireland. It was his son Thomas with his son John that came to America in 1683 and settled in Chester Co., PA. Joanne Crawford Ikeda
