Since everyone seems to be researching Caldwell's can anyone tell me if they know anything about Andrew Caldwell who married Susannah Hughs 19Jan1813? Thanks, Sandy

Well, it appears we have a gathering of the Caldwell clan this morning. Therefore, can anyone help me with my question? Mahala and Catherine Bowen were sisters, the daughters of James and Catherine "Bosters" Bowen. Mahala married William Caldwell, March 26, 1836, in Montgomery County. Catherine married James Caldwell on December 30, 1845, in Montgomery County. Were William and James Caldwell related? And, if so, how? Bob Bowen in Woodbridge, VA.

Or do I go forward through John Par(r)is? Vince

This is great, Steve... Thanks. Now it also raises a question! I have nothing on Andrew to tie them together... Who does Andrew go back through to form a connection?

Bob I can not answer your question as to weather James and William Caldwell were related or not, but probably were somehow. I have not done much research in Montgomery county mostly in Craig or Botetourt and have Susan J. Caldwell, born 26 Oct 1845 in Giles (now Craig) County died 14 May 1911 = buried in Webb Cemetery - Craig married on 21 Aug 1866 at the residence of Mahala Caldwell by Phillip B. Williams to. William T. Webb - born 20 Oct 1839 in Giles ( now Craig) County died 27 Sep 1909 = Webb Cemetery their daughter Etta Missouri Webb - 9 mar 1879 - 7 Aug 1940 - Webb Cemetery married on 7 Oct 1888 to George Edmison Caldwell - 23 May 1864 - 21 apr 1926 - Webb Cemetery and they had 10 children. Steve

Vince I tried to send you what I had on the Caldwell line but it was send back as being to big. So I am going to try it this way. John Pendleton Caldwell - 1846 parents: Andrew Caldwell - 1803 Barbara Trout parents: John Temper Caldwell, Jr. Polly Hively parents; John Temper Caldwell died 1820 Susanna Preston John Paris Caldwell - 1879 parents: George Washington Caldwell Eliza Jane Ruble parents; Lloyd Caldwell Susanna Martha Hendrickson parents: William F. Caldwell Frances Anderson parents: John Temper Caldwell - died 1820 Susanna Preston hope this helps Steve

Hello All, Could someone tell me what a WPA worker was or how they got the jobs. My Great Grandfather worked for this organization as a carpenter building new out houses. Thanks, Sandy Henderson

I hope Curt isn't sick or something because I e-mailed him a while ago asking him to change my e-mail address on "Featured Folk of Craig Co" and he hasn't done it. Curt has done such a great job, I do hope all is okay.

Can anyone tell me why it takes so long to get a query posted on the Craig County Gen Page? The newest one is dated November 10th. I submitted one earlier this week, but it's not there yet. -- Protect our Flag

Hello All, I am looking for information on the Stock Law. It used to be all livestock ran loose, can someone tell me when the Stock Law came into use in Craig Co. Thanks, Sandy

Hi. My wife and mother-in-law both... have said there was someone in the family with the name De-wayne Ramsey or Du-wayne Ramsey. No, not the spelling, but the sound. Now, they seemed to say it was in the DAVIS line from Rockbridge. But from data I have seen for Craig County, I begin to think it was from the CARPER side of the family. There was a Don WAYNE Sizer and Millie RAMSEY I have seen mentioned on this site. Did they have a girl? And with a name like the above? Vince

Hi gang: I've posted the following on the Craig County Query site, but I thought I'd give you a head start on it. Looking for information on Margaret, wife of W. J. Layman. Margaret's first husband, James L. Bowen, died in 1905. They lived where the present-day Joseph Joyce Farm is located on Rt. 621. WPA information gathered in the 1930's shows Margaret inheriting a piece of property from her first husband James L. Bowen which was later owned by S. A. Brookman of New Castle. An old log house stood on the land described as "2 3/4 miles southwest of Rt. 311 on Rt. 621, south side of the road." Would love to hear from anyone with knowledge of this log house and W. J. and Margaret "Bowen" Layman. Semper Fi - Bob Bowen in Woodbridge -- Protect our Flag
