Hi again, Just to offer a little more information, this is the information from the 1800 census: In US, 66 people with surname, CALL. 13 people in NH: In Hillsborough Co.: David, Hazen, John, Joseph, Moses, Nathaniel, Silas, "widow" CALL. In Strafford Co.: Daniel, Philip, Stephen. In Cheshire Co.: Nathaniel. In Rockingham Co.: David. 6 people in VT: In Windsor Co.: John, Elias. In Rutland Co.: Anna. In Orange Co.: Rufus. In Franklin Co.: Joseph. In Essex Co.: Caleb. 7 people in MA, with a James CALL in Charlestown, MA. Mostly John's and Jonathan's in MA that year, with one Henry. 11 people in NY, in 5 different counties. No James or Silas. Betty (near Lowell, MA) (I have a man I believe is an ancestor, William WILKINS, who leaves MA in 1770's to go to the "Northern Territory of MA" and he is not found in any census record after that. He should have been in the 1790 census for "Maine" and in the 1800 census, if he was still alive, and he is not. It's possible he was a surveyor for the "Territory" and moved around a lot - so avoided all the census takers.) (Maine did not become a State until 1820.) (Someone told me last week that there was a William WILKINS in Amherst, NH, in 1790. But I was told he had sons. The William I am looking for had lost 2 young children before they left MA, and had one surviving daughter. I am trying to find out if he had a 4th child in "Maine" - a son, Samuel, born 1770's.) (Actually the "Bray WILKINS book" offers confusing information about this William. I don't know if he had 5 children in MA and lost 2 of those, and thus had 3 surviving children. The only child I can find as an adult is that surviving daughter, Eunice, who returned to MA, married but had no children.)
There was a Selah Wilkins in Dorset, Vermont in the mid to late 19th century. He's buried there in Maplewood Cem.
