John Calloway b 1804 NC d 1864 Knox CoKY
I'm looking for the ancestors of this John Calloway. He was born in NC, (don't know which county), married Elizabeth Ann Temples (I think she may have been married before) in Bertie Co., NC Jun 1827. Then moved to TN (Hawkins/Hancock cos.)Moved to Knox co KY by the 1860 census. He had 6 children, first 2 born in NC, remainder in TN. Their names were:
Sarah Elizabeth 1829
William Jackson 1837
Joshua Hill 1841
John Right 1843
James S 1847
Frances B. (female) 1850
The 1840 census for Hawkins Co., TN states that there was a son age abt 20 and a daughter age abt 15.
This indicates 2 additional children.
The 1850 census for Hancock Co., TN lists the following:
John Colaway age 46, Male, shoemaker, 150 acres, married within the year, born in NC
Ann age 46, Female, married within the year, born in NC
children: William, Joshua, Right, Doctor, Frances and a Nancy Mathis age 46 born in TN also residing in the household.
Sarah Elizabeth is already married at the time of the 1850 census to John Green.
William Jackson is already married at the time of the 1860 census to Hannah Frances Mullins.
If John Calloway followed traditional naming procedures for his children, then Joshua's (his son) middle name is probably John's mother's maiden name (Hill), and John's (his son) middle name is probably John's wife's maiden name (Right).
Following this assumption, I researched the Right surname and found the following, which makes my assumption very likely:
1860 Knox Co., KY census shows John Calloway living next door to Henry Right.
household and family # 1056
John Calloway 60 M Farmer born in TN (probably wrong as I believe he was born in NC)
Elizabeth (probably Elizabeth Ann Right) 55 F born in TN (probably wrong as I believe she was Francis Right's sister and also born in NC)
Hill 19 M born in TN
Right 17 M born in TN
Doctor 12 M born in TN
Frances 7 F born in TN
1860 Knox Co., KY census
household and family # 1057
Henry Right 26 M Farmer born in KY
?Winna? 25 F born in KY
Elizabeth 9 F born in KY
?Elsie Jane? 6 F born in KY
Mariah 3 F born in KY
Fanny Right 63 M born in NC (this is probably Henry's father) can't read or write
Polly ?Cox? 60 F born in NC can't read or write
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
