Death Robert Caulfield/Caufield/Cawfield/Cauffield, Aug 28, 1862
« on: Wednesday 21 February 18 04:09 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for further information regarding the death of  Robert Caulfield who died in Magherafelt on Aug 28, 1862. I don't have a wife for him but wondering if it might be Mary Houston.
I have found the death of John Caufield who died in Minnesota in 1906,  parents Robert Caulfield and Mary Houston. John was born Feb 12, 1819 in Ireland. I have a Robert born 1795 whom I wonder if it is his father.
thanks for any help

I have learned that the person married to Mary Houston was actually William Robert Caulfield and he died before 1853, after which Mary aka Jane Caulfield nee Houston emigrated to Ohio to join her 4 sons, Samuel, John, Robert and Thomas. These boys are born between 1814 and 1828. Samuel emigrated 1844, John 1846, John's future wife Rosanna Clark in 1848, and I am not sure about Robert and Thomas' emigration dates. Mary was born Aug 2, 1787 in Ballymulderg and William Robert was born 1776 in Ballymulderg. Mary/Jane emigrated to Ohio abt 1853 and she died in Brookfield, Trumbull Co., Ohio on Aug 2, 1867. If anyone has any information on this family, it would be greatly appreciated. Thomas died 1866 in Ohio. John died 1906 in Minnesota. Robert died 1908 in Oregon. I am working from the US end as well but it is difficult.
A brother to William Robert Caulfield was James born 1788.
Thanks for any help.
