Craig, if you have David Caldwell in your line and he is married to Sarah
Brice then we are related. Sarah Brice was the sister of my GGGG-grandmother
Mary Brice Harrison. I do not know anything more on David so maybe you can
send me what you have on your Caldwell data. This is not verified but someone
had given me these names for David's parents:
Descendants of Joseph Caldwell

1 Joseph Caldwell b: Abt. 1740 d: 1810 in Harrison County, Kentucky
.. +Mary ? b: Unknown d: Unknown in Harrison County, Kentucky
*2nd Wife of Joseph Caldwell:
.. +Isabel Cochran b: Abt. 1740 d: Unknown in Harrison County,
Kentucky
........ 2 David Caldwell b: September 10, 1765 in Pennsylvania or
Ireland d: Abt. December 1833 in Harrison County, Kentucky
............ +Sarah Brice b: September 06, 1771 in Bourbon County,
Kentucky d: June 04, 1813 in Harrison County, Kentucky

I can't say if Isobel or Mary was his mother as this is not verified/proven.

Have a nice day ~ Kathie Harrison
