662 CALVERT-BOOK XII
of Frederick County, Md., for ten years. Witnesses: John and Thomas
Prather. (Frederick Co., Md., Book p. 424.)
William Calvert may have been an immigrant to this country. Or, he
could have been related to the Leonard Calvert who was recorded on the
1810 Md. Census for Anne Arundel Co., as being over 45 years of age;
with two males (sons) and one female under 10 yrs.; one female between
10 and 16; and one between 16 and 26. The wife was under 45. William
Calvert named a son "Leonard," which adds color to the possibility'. No
Calvert wills were found in Anne Arundel County.
In Montgomery Co., Md., where William's marriage was recorded as of
July 18, 1780, there was also recorded the marriage of a Robert Calvert
& Susanna Young, July 20, 1785. Were these two Calverts brothers?
Having married a (presumably) Virginia girl, this act suggests that
William may also have been a Virginian. No place has been found for
him in either Prince William or Culpeper counties.
There is the possibility that William may have stepped across the line
from Pennsylvania into Maryland, and enlisted in Philip Maroney's Ey-
ing Squadron during the Revolutionary War. The War Department car-
ries the following record:
"The name of William Calvert (Frederick County, Middle District)
appears in a list of Captain Philip Maroney's Company in the Flying
Camp, August 8, 1776. Reviewed and passed by Charles E. Griffith, Aug.,
1776."
William Calvert was living in Tennessee by 1787 when his fourth child
was born there, according to Census records. Whether the elder children
were born there is unknown. Nor is it known whether William and his
wife Elizabeth Nodding died in Tennessee, or had moved on to Missouri.

7105. LEONARD CALVERT (William)
b. May 23, 1787, in Tennessee. (Census); d. Feb. 1, 1860, near
Booneville, Cooper Co., Mo.; m. Sept. 3, 1807, MARY ("POLLY")
BOWMAN, b. Apr. 24, 1785 in Virginia; d. Jan. 14, 1852, Cooper
Co., Mo.
Leonard Calvert left East Tennessee (probably Washington Co.), about
1821, going to Missouri, where he settled at "Old Franklin" (in what is
now Howard County) opposite where Booneville now stands. There they
lived for two years in a stockade fort until the Indians were removed from
that section. Then Leonard settled on a homestead ten miles east of
Booneville, near Big Lick, a famous deer-lick. A Baptist Church and
Cemetery are now there, known as Big Lick.
