• Notes

  William inherited the Crosh House when he was 8 years old according to Wikitree and Geni. "William inherited the Crosh House Estate in County Tyrone, Ireland from Stuart relatives. Terms of the inheritance called for him to live and occupy the estate. William grew up in the Crosh House and wrote a requirement in his will that all future owners of the estate must bear the name Calhoun. He was the first to adopt the Irish spelling of Calhoun." (2023). "The Crosh House is country lodge on a tract of several hundred acres, once referred to as the Abercorn Estate. It is located in Newtownstewart, named after Sir William Stewart (also appears as "Stuart"), 1st Baronet Stewart of Ramelton, who acquired 1,500 acres of property in 1613 from an absent James Haig, who was granted the land in 1610. Sir Stewart died in 1646. In 1651, eight-year-old William Colquhoun inherited the estate under the condition he inhabited it. Later, in his will, he mandated the estate be inhabited by a Colhoun. It remained within the family until 1900. According to "Our Calhoun Family," by Orval Calhoun, the Inheritance was as follows: Rev. Alexander Calhoun to his son Maj. William Calhoun to his nephew Alexander Colquhoun to his son Crawford Colquhoun to his son Alexander William Colquhoun to his daughter Margaret Anne (Colhoun) Porter" For Williams descendants, his son John and Humphry moved to Somerset and Cecil Co. Maryland respectively. His son William might have moved to the states in some theories. His son Samuel's death date and place haven't been found. We do now have a triangulation between 4 cousins for this William between my mother and two of her cousins on Gedmatch that indicate we could descend through this William or his ancestry. They are: A127179 , A092025, A102985, and A127179 on chromosome 17.
