2. | James CALHOUN was born in 1694 in Crosh House, Co Tyrone, Northern Ireland (son of William COLQUHOUN, Burgess "of Strabane" and Alice CUNNINGHAM); died in 1772 in Old Chestnut Level Presbyterian Cemetery, Quarryville, Lancaster, PA; was buried in Quarryville, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States of America. Notes: He is often listed as the son of James and Catherine Montgomery Calhoun instead. If so, his wife with the surname of Long died in the 1760 Cherokee Indian Uprising when 150 settlers were trying to get out of harms way by moving to Augusta Co., VA. He is often attributed to the the same James who died in Lancaster, PA and married a 2nd time in 1766 at about age 70 to Elizabeth Wilson. He is supposedly in Probate records for Lancaster Co., PA in 1772. C 1 137 There are no DNA descendants of this James Calhoun on Gedmatch as of 3/24/2018 to help us determine if he is our ancestor. The 2 sons I have attributed to him would by age be more likely his grandsons buried in the same cemetery as he is. We in essence do not know any of his children's names.
