I was just reading the article in the paper about the recently purchased 1659 home in Norwich! Great job saving that from demolition! What an amazing family history all the way from the Mayflower unbelievable! I am a professional metal detectorist and I would love to try to recover some of the amazing historical relics that are hiding only inches in the ground and donate them to the family and or museum! This is a very professional, free, lawn friendly service & I love saving history and getting it into the right hands! If you are interested in having your property detected to see what amazing relics are hiding in the ground, please get ahold of me: jbossie610@gmail.com
Thanks and have a great day!

I am thrilled to find this site about the Calkins! I descend from Zerviah Calkins (1782-1857), my 4th great-grandmother and daughter of Solomon Caulkins, Jr. and Hannah Crandall. Thanks to all who have done this important work!

This is exciting to find the CFA. Just scrolling thru some facebook friends pages and I found you. My sister has the research that my dad did when he joined the Sons of the American Revolution and I remember Hugh Calkins being on the family tree. I look forward to joining this organization and will donate to help restore Hugh's homestead. Very Excited!

Great work Calkins family! I join the Calkins line through Phebe Calkins who married Ebeneezer Manley. I am working to prove that Phebe and her father Thomas Calkins descend from Joseph Calkins and Deborah Crippen.

Hello. Lois Standish, who married Hugh Calkins in 1706 in CT is my 8th great-aunt. I just found out about this interesting association when some one told me about the efforts to save the Hugh Calkins residence. (Myles Standish is my 9th great-grandfather.) I look forward to hearing more about the house project.

This is for Connie Daniels....Hi!! I hope your holidays we're lovely. My name is Melissa Calkins. I am the genealogical recorder for the Calkins Family Association. I saw your post on the Calkins website guestbook and thought I would reach out to you. I couldn't email you as gmail doesn't recognize your email address.
If you can provide me with any information regarding your line of decent, starting with you and which side of the family tree the Calkins family resides on, I can start some research for you. Please try to include dates, places, names, maiden names, etc. Please email me at mjcalkins817@gmail.com.
Have a wonderful evening.
Melissa.....

Merry Christmas:
One set of my 7th great grandparents is Hugh Roberts and Mary Calkin. At the moment, I am interesting in knowing more about what happened between Gloucester and Newark.
Enjoy the Holiday.

Hello!
I just found this website, this is AWESOME!
I come from Hugh and Ann's son John. Is there someone in our family here in Arizona that would like to meet up for a lunch?

This is a very active family association with helpful, friendly members. And to think anyone with the Calkins name, no matter how you spell it, connects to each other!

This is a very cool website. Glad to be a member of CFA!
I'm a direct descendant of Hugh Calkins through his son John, then Samuel, Stephen, Joseph, Levi, Amos, Lucius, Perry W., Perry J, my grandfather Frank and father Don Calkins. It is fun to see other Calkins cousins and relatives. My favorite family site is familysearch.org. I do a lot of research on my ancestors through this site and ancestry.com.
