Hi Keith;
I found your g-grandfather, Rev. Johnston C. Calhoun 1851-1940 on pg.758 of volume 3. He was born in Beaver Creek, Pa. lived in Viola, Ill. and buried in Hookstown, Pa. He married Clara Gilmore and he was the 8th of 11 children born to Johnston Calhoun 1812-1891 & Isobel Davis 1812-1862.
There are no records of any family or descendants from this point forward so if you have any of this information, I would appreciate receiving it for my records. I need all his children, their children, their children, etc.
Pg.757
Johnston 1812-1891 was the 1st of 9 children born to Joseph Calhoun 1787-1845 & Jane Littell 1790-1863.
Joseph was the 4th of 7 children born to Johnston Calhoun 1753-1835 & Jane Donnehay 1751-1833.
Pg.740
Johnston was the 1st of 2 children born to William Colhoun b.1725 & a Miss Sproule m.1750. (last name only)
William was the only child of Cloud Thaddeus Colhoun b.1695 & Lady Blaney m.1720.
Vol.3 Pg.733, Vol.1 Pg.731
Cloud was the 6th of 9 children born to Charles Colhoun Sr. 1645-1718 & Mary ? b.1645(first name only)Charles lived in Letterkenny, Ireland.
Vol.1 Pg.28
Charles was the 2nd of 6 children born to Robert Colquhoun 1622-1634 & Katherine McAuselan m.1641.
Robert was the 1st of 2 children born to Adam Colquhoun 1601-1634 & Lady Christian Lindsay 1603-1629 m.1621.
Vol.1 Pg.13
Adam was the 5th of 11 children born to Sir Alexander Colquhoun 1573-1617, 15th Clan Chief of Colquhoun, 17th of Luss, & Margaret Helen Buchanan m.1595.
The lineage for the Clan Chiefs is located in the centre of the Rossdhu book and goes back to Maldouen, 1st Clan Chief of Luss from 1150 AD until 1220 AD, and Umfridus of Kilpatrick and of Colquhoun from 1190 AD until 1260 AD.
I have your name on file for the reprinting of Volumes 1 & 2. Could you please forward your e-mail & mailing address to me so I won't have any trouble contacting you later on?
Regards,
Owen Calhoun
