  • Notes 
    • Her birthdate is listed as 1730 or 1732 depending upon what parent researchers are connecting with her. They both are from families from Philadelphia which is over a hundred miles from Paxtang where James and Sarah raised their children and were married in 1783. I personally don't see this as logical or have found any evidence of same. The death date of 1797 they often connect with her is from a gravestone for a Sarah Taylor. Her name on the gravestone would be Sarah Calhoun instead, so I suggest that is an error also.

      I believe James married to Sarah Taylor who lived in Paxtang, PA where he also died is the son of John or William of Paxtang, PA instead of being the son of Hugh who was a brother to James Patrick Calhoun as often stated. This is logical. It also accounts for why I have many triangulations with descendants of Hugh's son James that are stronger than any I've found with other descendants of Calhoun lines. The James married to Sarah Taylor is not the son of Hugh and Agnes Calhoun. My James Calhoun is.
