All of you do such good research! I just wish I could get one of you to research "other" Caldwell Lines!! I would love to have access to your good searching skills for my line of John Caldwell/ Margaret Phillips! Seems as if we get little snitches about him and his family....but nothing as thorougly researched as your stuff for the David Caldwell line!

Several of you have mentioned John (and I think it is my John Caldwell) being a merchant but we do not seem to know anything more than that. I wonder what he sold? What kind of merchant was he? In America he seemed to mostly be a farmer and active Presbyterian Elder...no mention of being a merchant here. Wonder why he gave up being a "merchant" for farming?

I am reading "The Cousins War" at the moment to educate myself more on the times of my families immigration to the US. But I just keep coming up with more questions!

Oh to have a researcher with the skill level you guys have rooting about in my family line of John Caldwell/ Margaret Phillips!!

Until then, I do so enjoy popping in on your discussions and information about the Ulster area and other topics. Any of you willing to take a bribe to do research in other Caldwell lines??? LOL...
