Hi MinnieNZ,
I hope I'm not too late to this conversation. It would seem your husband and I are very distant cousins - my 4x great grandfather is Thomas Calder, the younger brother of Frederic(k) Calder Senior. Thomas (b. 1795) came to New Brunswick, Canada where he sought (and seemingly received) a land-grant in 1821. His descendants frequently crossed the US/Canadian border (I'm from the US side).
I've also reached a dead end on researching John Calder and Hannah Castelow.
