There is no John in the index of the transcribed copies of the 1850 and 1860 Belmont Co. censuses that I have by Wes Cochran. There is one Elizabeth Caldwell listed in the index for the 1850 census: Richland Twp. 316-323 Thomas Black 77 Ire Farmer William 75 Ire None Mary 70 Ire Elizabeth CALDWELL 30 PA Jane CALDWELL (BLACK?) 18 Ire Next door is a William Caldwell, age 36 b. Ireland. No Robert Caldwell listed in the index either. I did find a Robert in the 1870 census (by Wes Cochran) Mead Twp. 173-170 Robert Caldwell 27 OH Blacksmith Jane 67 PA Keep House Perhaps Jane is Elizabeth and her full name was Elizabeth Jane? I found a John, but he was married to a Catherine and he was born in Ireland. -- Bonnie Burkhardt <burkhard@flash.net> <bburkhardt@juno.com> Dogacres@webtv.net wrote: > Could some one look in 1850 and 1860 census for John and Elizabeth > Caldwell They had a son Robert and some daughters but I dont know their > names At the time of he Civil War they lived in Belmont county Your > help would be appreciated Thank you > > > >
