Hello David:
I have been researching the various Calder families who immigrated to Ontario, Canada prior to the year 1900. Several of these families originated in the Creich/Dornoch area of Sutherlandshire, and may possibly be related to your, William Calder. I was wondering if you know the names of William's parents, or have information on any of his siblings?
Here is a little info on 3 male Calders who seem to be the most likely candidates to be related to your, William Calder:
1) Robert Calder

December 27, 1828 in Creich, Sutherlandshire, Scotland.
2) John Calder
Born: January / 1801.
Swordale(?), Creich, Sutherlandshire, Scotland.
Died: July 12, 1884.
West Zorra Township, Oxford County, Ontario.

Parents: Christena Calder (requires verification; she appears with John’s family in the 1871 census, aged 89, born in Scotland).
Married to: Margaret McLeod.

3) Alexander Calder
