Hi Jeanie,
No, but how interesting. My husband's name is Tom and we have lived in
Erie PA for 30 years. My father worked for US Steel though (his last name
Finley). I would expect there is some family connection with the
McCalmont's you refer to as Washington County (Hickory in particular) is
where our original McCalmont's are from.

Hi Ms. McCalmont ...... My husband Bob and I knew a Jim and Linda McCalmont
that resided in Bethel Park, PA...would you be that couple? The Jim we
knew
worked for U.S. Steel Corp. in Pittsburgh and Linda had a beauty salon in
her home.
