I am familiar with Orval Calhoun's books.They are very hard to follow. The DAR library has all 3 volumes. Probably, the info you seek is correct,as he did better with later generations.You can follow up with the various Census records.He was very interested in connecting to the overseas Calhouns; but never quite made the connection to my satisfaction.There is one main branch who came into PA in the early 1700's that he never did trace.Of course, that is my line!I know there is a connection with John C. Calhoun, as my mother & her brother are the "spitting image." My John Calhoun was b ca 1748 in VA or MD, & d quite conveniently after the 1850 Census in Casey Co KY. HOpefully DNA will work, if I can find an accurate source to process.My male first cousins are Calhouns.
