    1. [SCSPARTA] RE: Waters/Caldwell
    2. Thank you for your posting of the "Carolina Spartan". I have been reading it from he beginning and finally made a family connection. On the posting of the of the "Carolina Spartan" Issues:  September 1882 MARRIED: --Thursday, the 7th instant, by Rev. A.P. Acant, Mr. Tandy WATERS and Miss Maggie CALDWELL; both of Spartanburg County. Maggie Caldwell is my GGrandfather's sister. He was William E. Caldwell and is listed on the 1880 Spartanburg census as follows: Caldwell, J. J. - 43 Josephine - 39 Maggie - 18 Edgar - 6 ( William E.) Annie - 3 I only recently found the information on MAGGIE's last name being WATERS but had no idea what the full name was or the date of marriage. The CALDWELL line had been my brick wall ever since I started doing my research so every little bit helps. I do know that J.J., JOSEPHINE and "FRANCE" (believe this maybe ANNIE, but not sure) were in Darlington in 1900 and that is where Josephine is buried. J. J. then returned to Spartanburg and married a BESSIE in 1907. The 1910 census shows them as having been married 3 years, He was 72 and she was 36 at that time. Also shows her as having 5 children with none living. Believe her maiden name may have been BLANTON as she was listed in the 1920 household as a widow living with a LANDRUM B. BLANTON and his family. If anyone has any information on any of these families I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again, Tanya C. Rothwell Researching: Caldwell, Gibson, Edwards, Kelly and others from NC and SC
