WILLIAM CALVERT AND ELIZABETH NODDING


[pp. 659-677]

FIRST GENERATION

WILLIAM CALVERT AND ELIZABETH NODDING



7101.   William Calvert

Elizabeth Nodding Calvert had a brother, William Nodding, who died in Washington Co., Tenn., leaving a Will dated Sept. 15, 1792; proved, May, 1793, in which he mentions:



NODING AND NODDY RECORDS FOUND IN VIRGINIA

1755, Dec. 10. Mary Noding was witness to the will of Thomas Benston or Beuston, who appointed his wife and William Noding Executors. (Fairfax Co., Va., Book 2, p.102.)

1757, Feb. 1. Will of Charles Marcy proved Mar. 13, 1759: "To Sarah Noding my dear and loving cousin, all my real estate." W. Noding Executor. (Louden Co., Va., Will Book A, p.10.)

1772, Aug. 24. An agreement to lease to Mason Thompson was proved by William Noddy. (Loudon Co., Deeds H.)

1780, June 12. William Noddy leased to Ignatius Wheeler of Prince George Co., Md. (Loudon Co., Book N, p.23 or 123.)

FIRST GENERATION

The parents of William Calvert are unknown. He was not son of Benedict Calvert of Prince George County, Md., whose son William is said to have been born about 1768. Nor was he the William Calvert recorded on the First Census for Anne Arundel County, Md., who made a sale of Tobacco in 1773 and was called "shoemaker" in the deed. This William Calvert, shoemaker, lived in Baltimore in 1802 and 1804, as per City Directories of those dates.

1766, March 20. Nathaniel Ward leases to William Calvert, shoemaker, of Frederick County, Md., for ten years. Witnesses: John and Thomas Prather. (Frederick Co., Md., Book...., p.424.)

William Calvert may have been an immigrant to this country. Or, he could have been related to the Leonard Calvert who was recorded on the 1810 Md. Census for Anne Arundel Co., as being over 45 years of age; with two males (sons) and one female under 10 yrs.; one female between 10 and 16; and one between 16 and 26. The wife was under 45. William Calvert named a son "Leonard," which adds color to the possibility. No Calvert wills were found in Anne Arundel County.

In Montgomery Co., Md., where William's marriage was recorded as of July 18, 1780, there was also recorded the marriage of a Robert Calvert & Susanna Young, July 20, 1785. Where these two Calverts brothers?

Having married a (presumably) Virginia girl, this act suggests that William may also have been a Virginian. No place has been found for him in either Prince William or Culpeper counties.

There is the possibility that William may have stepped across the line from Pennsylvania into Maryland, and enlisted in Philip Maroney's Flying Squadron during the Revolutionary War. The War Department carries the following record:

"The name of William Calvert (Frederick County, Middle District) appears in a list of Captain Philip Maroney's Company in the Flying Camp, August 8, 1776. Reviewed and passed by Charles E. Griffith, Aug., 1776."

William Calvert was living in Tennessee by 1787 when his fourth child was born there, according to Census records. Whether the elder children were born there is unknown. Nor is it known whether William and his wife Elizabeth Nodding died in Tennessee, or had moved on to Missouri.

7105   Leonard Calvert (William)

Leonard Calvert left East Tennessee (probabley Washington Co.), about 1821, going to Missouri, where he settled at "Old Franklin" (in what is now Howard County) opposite where Booneville now stands. There they lived for two years in a stockade fort until the Indians were removed from that section.
