There is conflicting information on this John Caldwell. Some sources claim he married Jane Kennedy (probably a different John Calhoun), and other sources claim he married Martha Calhoun abt. 1739 and later married Margaret Ewing.

East of the Blue Ridge Other Ulster Scots settled east of the Blue Ridge. John Caldwell, the grandfather of U.S. Senator John Caldwell Calhoun, led a group of settlers initially to Albemarle County in 1738 and then to Cub Creek in Charlotte County in 1741.

John Caldwell, an elder from Chestnut Level, instigated the letter to the Governor of Virginia in 1738. The Caldwells and others from the congregation settled on Buffalo Creek in Prince Edward County. Thomson joined them in 1744 and served congregations on Cub Creek in Charlotte County, Buffalo Creek and Walker’s in Prince Edward County. He also founded a grammar school and published The Explication of the Shorter Catechism (Williamsburg, 1749). As the nearest minister to the Scotch-Irish settlements on the Haw and Eno rivers in North Carolina, he was appointed to visit them in 1751. He died in North Carolina in 1753 on a pastoral visit.
