General Notes: Husband - George Johnston Caldwell
He assisted his father in farming until the death of the latter in 1875, when he, by his father's bequest, took entire charge of the farm. By tireless energy he succeeded in paying off the rest of the heirs, and clearing the farm of that encumbrance, but the task proved too much for his bodily strength; consumption made inroads on his system, and despite the efforts of skilled physicians, he passed away.
He was a stanch supporter of the principles embodied in the Democratic party, and for twenty-one years filled the office of school director. In religion he was a member of Centre Presbyterian Church, and taught the same class in Sunday-school fifteen years.
