Calvin is living with his mother Polly who is 80 years of age. [10]

On 7 September 1881 Calvin married Celia Dozier in Madison County, Kentucky. [11]

Calvin is 75 years of age in 1900 and states that he was born in March of 1825 in Kentucky. Calvin is married to Celia (states he's been married 18 years) and is living in Foxtown, Madison County, Kentucky. Calvin is working as a farmer on his own farm that he owns. [12]

In 1910 Calvin has reached the age of 89 and is living in White Hall, Madison County, Kentucky. Calvin is still stating that he's a farmer and that he's been married 60 years, his wife Celia is only 54 years of age, so he is most likely stating how long it has been since his first marriage. [13]
