This Page Last Updated: November 27, 2002

Update Info: Since posting this page in June 1997, I have received many updates and corrections so I have re-posted some of the reports. Since this web site only allows you to have 5 reports posted at one time, I occasionally remove some reports to make room for others. But if you have seen your family's report on this page before, don't panic, I still have it and will probably repost it later. In the meantime, feel free to contact me with any questions or updates.

NEXT UPDATE...WHO KNOWS!

Welcome, to the CALTON Family Home Page!

On this page I have posted 5 NGS Quarterly Descendant Charts on ancestral lines for which there is significant information.

If you find any surnames or individuals that you believe we may have in common, or, if you find any errors or omissions, I urge you to contact me at the e-mail address shown below. I may have additional information on individuals that is not included in the descendant charts.

I am not really actively pursuing this research anymore. I'm pretty much finished. So what I have is what I have.

Most of the data displayed in these reports was supplied to me by either family members or fellow researchers. I would like to devote some space on this web site to thank those people and acknowledge their hard work and diligent research.

HALL OF FAME
My sincerest thanks and gratitude is extended to the following people, without whom I would know nothing of my family history.

HENRY WARD CALTON
FARRIS T. & DOROTHY (SANDERS) CALTON
ROBERT DAVIDSON "RFDavid@aol.com"
These four wonderful people supplied me with 90% of my information on the CALTON line. When I started, all I knew was the names of my grandparents. They generously shared their research with me and saved me years and years of searching. I am forever in their debt.

DOROTHY (SANDERS) CALTON
BEV SCOTT KENDALL "Bev1sk@aol.com"
LARRY DENNIS "lwdennis@aol.com"
Dorothy and Bev Scott Kendall had been corresponding and researching the Dennis line for years and worked very hard getting it all straight. So anytime you see Dorothy quoted as a source for the Dennis Family History, please remember that Bev Scott Kendall was every bit as much responsible for the information and she has my thanks. Click on the link below to visit her very cool web site on the Dennis Family! Larry Dennis also filled in a lot of blanks for me. Thanks Larry!

BEV SHACKELFORD "Bevshaq@aol.com"
RUTH HOGGATT "bhoggatt@seidata.com"
DOUGLAS V. DAVIS "76031.1312@compuserve.com"
These three kind folks were responsible for virtually all of my data on the HIXON line. Thank you very, very much. Ruth and Doug both have web sites...click on the links below.

JERALINE PULKRABEK
GLENDA BALES MOUNGER "rmjosh@flash.net"
These two ladies handed me all of my CHUMLEY data on a silver platter. Thanks, ladies. I truly appreciate it!

HY BATES "hybates@ix.netcom.com"
This kind gentleman hooked me into a huge amount of information on the BLACKWELL line. Thanks Hy!

CHRISTINE PHELAN HELMICK "CHelm948@aol.com"
This wonderfull woman supplied me with tons of information on the PHELAN side of the family. Thanks Christine!

DON & RUTH DUXBURY
This couple did a phenomenal job on the BLACKBURN/BLACKBOURN family history. Truly phenomenal. Thanks Don & Ruth!

RICK & VICKI McCLINTOCK
For sharing their copy of "The Santee Family In America" with me. It took me two years to get it all in, but it was worth it. Thanks!
