Seeking info. on sons of Christopher and Elinor Calvert of Accomack Co., VA; Christopher, Jr; Charles; John; George.

Question

 

Christopher Calvert was transported to Accomack Co., VA in 1636 by William Bibby. Christopher married Elinor LNU ca. 1650 and had children Christopher, Jr. b. ca. 1651;;  Charles b. ca. 1655; John b. ca. 1660; and George b. ca. 1665. Christopher died in 1682 in Accomack.  Charles and John were still in Accomack Co in early 1690's. Not sure about Christopher, Jr. and George.  Would like to know if sons married, who they married, what happened to them.

Answer 1

I am researching this Christopher Calvert family.  I think this Christopher may have been the grandson of Leonard and Alicia Crossland, nephew of George.  I have a marriage date of Christopher Calvert and Elinor Hunter of 29 October 1626 from a Northumberland/Durham index, but that is all.  

 

Do you know who Christopher's siblings were?

 

Thanks!

Tax records in Accomack Co., VA indicate that Christopher Calvert was approx. 21 years old when he arrived in 1636.  He did not marry Elinor ___ until 1652.  I now believe that Elinor's maiden name was Odait.  She arrived in Accomack Co at the same time as Ralph Barlow and the Parkers (neighbors of Christopher Calvert).
