Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XAB.2ACE/534.549.544.552 Message Board Post: Information on Caldwells. I am trying to decipher the descendants of Governor Gabriel Slaughter -- and his daughter, Mary, married James Caldwell. Following is and excerpt that discusses part of the Caldwell lineage. Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 4th ed., 1887, Boyle Co. CHARLES CALDWELL. The name of Caldwell is an honorable one in American annals. No family made a brighter record for patriotism and bravery during the war of the Revolution and in the trying pioneer times, when the States were coming into shape on new soil. From Rhode Island to Florida and as far west as Texas, this family extends to-day, growing out of the parent stock described in this sketch. Stanch defenders of Presbyterianism they have been friends of education, influential in politics and useful members of society. The earliest record of the Caldwell family relates to three brothers, John, Alexander and Oliver, who were seamen on the Mediterranean in the latter part of the fourteenth century under two men named Barbarossa. The influence of the latter was ended by the governor of Aran, after about twenty years, and those connected with them scattered over the world. The three brothers returned to Toulon, in France, where they had been born, and settled near by, at Mount Arid. Earning the enmity of Francis I, of France, after his escape from imprisonment under Charles V, of Germany, the brothers were again forced to change their location. Going to Scotland they purchased, near Solway Firth, the estate of a bishop named Douglass, with the consent of James I, on condition that the said brothers, John, Alexander and Oliver, late of Mount Arid, should have their estate known as "Cauldwell," and when the king should require they should each send a son with twenty men of sound limbs to aid in the wars of the king. An heirloom is a cup, from which it is seen that the estate took its name from a watering-place. The cup represents a chieftain and twenty mounted men, all armed, and a fire burning on a hill over the words "Mount Arid," and a vessel surrounded by high waves. Joseph, John Alexander, Daniel, David and Andrew, of Cauldwell, went with Oliver Cromwell (whose grand-mother was Ann of Cauldwell) to Ireland, of which he was the lord governor. After his promotion to the protectorate of England they remained in his interest in Ireland until the restoration of Charles II, when John, David and Andrew fled to America. Joseph died in Ireland and Daniel continued there, but several of their children immigrated to America, settling on James River, Va., and elsewhere. Another account renders it improbable that the last John, mentioned above, came to America. His son, John Caldwell (as the name had come to be spelled), married Margaret Phillips in County Derry, Ireland, where several children were born to them. December 10, 1727, they landed at Newcastle, Del., going thence to Lancaster County, Penn., and about 1742 in Lunenburg (now Charlotte) County, Va. Here they were joined by relatives, forming what was known as the "Caldwell Settlement" for many years. John Caldwell was the first justice of the peace, and his son, William, the first militia officer commissioned by George II for that section. He died and was buried by the side of his wife in 1750. Their children were William, Thomas, David, Margaret, John, Robert and James. Each of these men contributed some things to American history. James Caldwell, D.D., the seventh child, one of the founders of Princeton College, was murdered by British soldiers at Elizabethtown, N.J., and his descendants received, by way of pensions, clerkships at Washington for many years. Two of his sons led in founding the Liberia colonization scheme, and gave name to Caldwell, Liberia. Martha, daughter of William Caldwell, became the mother of John Caldwell Calhoun, the statesman. The whole family was distinguished for patriotism during the war of the Revolution. One son, John, died while lieutenant-governor; was buried at Frankfort, and honored with a monument at public expense. He gave name to Caldwell County, of which he was an early settler. Samuel was a major-general in the war of 1812, and the first clerk of Logan County court. Both were members of the Legislature frequently, as was Robert, who presided in the House when the famous resolutions of 1708 were adopted. The latter's daughter, Eliza, became the wife of O.H. Browning, Lincoln's Secretary of the Interior. Mary, daughter of Robert, married Dr. R.C. Palmer. David Caldwell was buried in the old churchyard in Lunenburg County, and his widow with her children settled at the point marked "Caldwell's Station" (near Danville) on Filson's map of Kentucky of 1784. One of the sons was John, who married Dicey Mann, having descendants David, William, Beverly, Polly and Phoebe. Robert moved from Virginia in 1781 and settled where William L. Caldwell now resides, near Danville. He took up several thousand acres of land at that point and was identified with the Pioneer life and early settlement of what was then Mercer County. He married Mary Logan and had a large family of children, who have occupied various positions of responsibility and trust in Kentucky. He led a plain and unostentatious life; was early identified with the Presbyterian Church at its first development in his locality and many of the early religious meetings of that body were held in his primitive, yet substantial dwelling. This ancient building, which was probably erected soon after his first settlement, is still standing on the farm of his grandson, William L. Caldwell, and is now used as a barn. It was a large building constructed of hewn logs, sealed with cherry plank sawed by hand and joined by hand-made nails. Robert Caldwell died in 1806, and his remains were interred upon the farm where he had passed the greater part of his industrious life. William Caldwell, one of his sons, married a Miss Wickliffe, a sister of Gov. Wickliffe; was an extensive farmer, and in his business and social relations commanded the respect and confidence of a large circle of friends. He had but two children, Lydia, who married a Mr. McCord of Washington County, and the late Charles Caldwell of Boyle County. The latter, whose name appears at the head of this sketch, received a good English education in his youth, and upon attaining manhood married Elizabeth, daughter of Jeremiah Clemens of Danville, and shortly after settled on the farm where his grandson, Jeremiah C. Caldwell, now resides. He was one of the most prominent and successful farmers Boyle County has ever had, and became widely known as one of the largest and most extensive cattle raisers and cattle feeders for the markets of the East. He also speculated extensively in pork, at one time buying and packing large quantities. He was a man of decidedly methodical and systematic turn of mind, industrious, frugal and thrifty, of undoubted integrity and uprightness of character, an elder in the Danville Presbyterian Church, a trustee of Centre College, and a prompt and liberal supporter of all worthy evangelical and charitable objects. He died in the possession of a large estate accumulated by the exercise of these virtues, which all admire but few emulate, and by the provision of his will left liberal bequests to the Caldwell Female College of Danville, and the Theological Seminary of that place. His only son, Jeremiah Caldwell, married Margaret Wilson of Bardstown, and spent his life in agricultural pursuits on his father's farm. He had two children: Charles, who died in boyhood, and Jeremiah C. Caldwell who passed away at the age of twelve years. The larger portion of the estate of Charles Caldwell was devised to his grandson, Jeremiah C. Caldwell. He received a thorough English education at Centre College, Danville, but being designed by his grandfather to engage in farming operations, did not pursue the entire curriculum, He was early inured to a life of industry, and under the careful and judicious guardianship of William Logan Caldwell developed such a stability of character and such a decided capacity for the intelligent transaction of business, that the trustees of his father's estate put him in possession of it nine years before they were compelled to do so, and he is to-day one of the largest and most successful farmers in Boyle County, a large handler of cattle for the Eastern markets and a prominent business man. He has inherited many of the characteristics of his grandfather, takes a lively interest in church and educational matters, and is the president of the Farmer's National Bank of Danville. He occupies his grandfather's farm, and is the seventh in line of descent from John Caldwell, who immigrated to this country in 1727. The line of descent is as follows: John, William, Robert, William Charles, Jeremiah, Jeremiah C. Caldwell. The latter married Annie Belle, daughter of Judge Fontaine T. Fox of Danville, and has four children: Charles Wickliffe, Eliza Hunton, Jeremiah Clemens and Fontaine Fox Caldwell. William Logan Caldwell is the fifth in line of descent from John Caldwell, whose emigration to this country together with the full genealogy of the family is described in the preceding sketch. His grandfather was Robert Caldwell, and his father James, the son of Robert. The story of the early settlement of the latter on the place now occupied by the subject of this sketch, has already been told. James Caldwell was the youngest son of Robert and led an active and industrious career as a farmer on the old place. He was a man of strong convictions, of original and forceful ideas, an uncompromising follower of Henry Clay, and an advocate of the gradual emancipation of the slave. He was a devout man and a useful member and elder of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church near Danville, of which he was a liberal supporter. He died in February, 1850. He was married three times, first to Mary, the daughter of Gov. Slaughter, of whom were born three sons and one daughter, who have now all passed away. For his second wife he married Phoebe, daughter of John and Elizabeth Henderson and a representative of an old Virginia family, by whom he had two sons, Rev. Robert H. Caldwell, a Presbyterian clergyman of Boyle County, and William Logan Caldwell. His third wife was Phoebe Caldwell, a distant relative of his family, who died without issue. William Caldwell, to whom this sketch is chiefly dedicated, was born on the ancestral place where he now resides, March 13, 1827. He received a good English education, and at the age of sixteen was placed in charge of his father's farm. Upon the death of the latter in 1850 he inherited the family homestead and has since devoted all his energies to its cultivation and improvement. He is a man of high character, of generous impulses and unswerving rectitude, and it can be truthfully said of him that no man in Boyle County is more worthy of the esteem of his fellows, nor enjoys in a higher degree their confidence and respect. He has been the executor of many trusts, which he administered with fidelity and satisfaction; has led a simple, blameless life, carefully avoiding public station and undue notoriety and confined himself strictly to the legitimate phases of agricultural life. As a farmer he is both successful and progressive, and is recognized as one of the leading breeders of "jacks" and "jennets" in the United States. He is also an extensive breeder of high class cattle and hogs and of thorough stock in general. He is a member of the board of directors of the Central Kentucky Stock Association and sends a monthly report of the conditions of the farming districts of the State to the Department of Agriculture at Washington. He is an elder in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church of Boyle County, a director in the Boyle National Bank at Danville, a commissioner of the State Deaf and Dumb Asylum at the same place, and president of several turnpike companies. Politically he was formerly an old line Whig, but now acts with the Democratic party. During the civil war he was true to the Union cause, and even when surrounded by the officers and troops of the South, boldly proclaimed his fidelity to the general constitution of our country and his faith in the ultimate triumph of the national arms. He was married, in November, 1847, to Ellen B., daughter of Eli Crumbaugh, of Caldwell County, Ky., and has had nine children, of whom eight survive: James B., who occupies a farm adjoining his father's; Robert C., a practicing physician at Bloomfield, Ky.; Nannie C., who is ardently engaged in home missionary work and travels extensively; William L., Jr., who resides with his father; Ella, widow of Dr. R.C. Palmer, Jr.; Maria, who resides at home; Obadiah B., a student in Centre College, and Lucy E., a student at Caldwell College.

This was passed on by another genealogy researcher - hope you enjoy! (Does this sound familiar?) Wishing each of you a very happy holiday season. - Sherri Genealogist's Christmas "Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even my spouse. The dining room table with clutter was spread With pedigree charts and with letters which said... "Too bad about the data for which you wrote Sank in a storm on an ill fated boat." Stacks of old copies of wills and the such Were proof that my work had become much to much. Our children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugarplums danced in their heads. And I at my table was ready to drop >From work on my album with photos to crop. Christmas was here, and of such was my lot That presents and goodies and toys I forgot. Had I not been so busy with grandparent's wills, I'd not have forgotten to shop for such thrills. While others had bought gifts that would bring Christmas cheer; I'd spent time researching those birthdates and years. While I was thus musing about my sad plight, A strange noise on the lawn gave me such a great fright. Away to the window I flew in a flash, Tore open the drapes and I yanked up the sash. When what to my wondering eyes should appear? But an overstuffed sleigh and eight small reindeer. Up to the housetop the reindeer they flew, With a sleigh full of toys, and old Santa Claus too. And then in a twinkle, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of thirty-two hoofs. The TV antenna was no match for their horns, And look at our roof with hoof-prints adorned. As I drew in my head, and bumped it on the sash, Down the cold chimney fell Santa - KER-RASH! "Dear" Santa had come from the roof in a wreck, And tracked soot on the carpet, (I could wring his short neck!) Spotting my face, good old Santa could see I had no Christmas spirit you'd have to agree. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work And filled all the stockings, (I felt like a jerk). Here was Santa, who'd brought us such gladness and joy; When I'd been too busy for even one toy. He spied my research on the table all spread "A genealogist!" He cried! (My face was all red!) "Tonight I've met many like you", Santa grinned. As he pulled from his sack a large book he had penned. I gazed with amazement - the cover it read "Genealogy Lines for Which You Have Plead." "I know what it's like as a genealogy bug," He said as he gave me a a great Santa Hug. "While the elves make the sleighful of toys I now carry, I do some research in the North Pole Library! A special treat I am thus able to bring, To genealogy folks who can't find a thing. Now off you go to your bed for a rest, I'll clean up the house from this genealogy mess." As I climbed up the stairs full of gladness and glee, I looked back at Santa who'd brought much to me. While settling in bed, I heard Santa's clear whistle, To his team which then rose like the down of a thistle And I heard him exclaim as he flew out of sight, "Family History is Fun! Merry Christmas! Goodnight!"

This was sent to me by a genealogist friend. Hope you enjoy it. Dear Lord: Every single evening As I'm lying here in bed This tiny little prayer Keeps running through my head. God bless my Mom and dad, And other family. Keep them warm and safe from harm For they're so close to me. And God, there is one more thing I wish that you could do. Hope you don't mind me asking, Bless my computer too. Now I know that it's not normal To bless a mother board, But listen just a second While I explain to you 'My Lord'. You see, that little metal box Holds more than odds & ends Inside those small compartments Rest so many of my FRIENDS. I know so much about them By the kindness that they give And this little scrap of metal Takes me in to where they live. By faith is how I know them Much the same as you We share in what life brings us And from that our friendship grew. Please, take an extra minute >From your duties up above To bless those in my address book That's filled with so much love! Wherever else this prayer may reach To each and every friend, bless each email Inbox And the person who hits Send. When you update your heavenly list On your own CD-ROM Remember each who've said this prayer Sent up to God.Com. Amen.

Hello im looking for any information for a Thomas Martin and family who married Mary Powell in 1827 in Mercer County. I have quite a bit of info. on the Powell families and also the Bottom families. The Martin family must have been close to the Mercer County and Boyle County Line, because when Boyle county was created they fell into the Boyle County area. Thomas Mary and family, except for oldest son Lewis A. Martin moved to Nodaway County in 1854....when Thomas Martin died in 1857, his oldest son Lewis A. Martin resided in Perryville Ky. as evidenced below: Received Perryville, Kentucky, November 23rd, 1859 of William Martin, $30.00 dollars from Charles Martin, administartor of the estate of Thomas Martin, deceased, this amount being a part of the money due me from said estate. Lewis Martin X his mark Thomas and his family of 10 children, along with his mother-in-law, Milly Powell and Mary's sister, Ann Powell are listed on the 1850 Federal Census of Boyle County, Kentucky.
