and Giles counties in the State of Va. compiled from the memories of
G. W. Snodgrass and wife who was a daughter of John Madison Caldwell,
who was a son of Robert Caldwell, who was a son of John Caldwell, who
was a son of John Caldwell the pioneer father of the Caldwells in
these counties.
  First John Caldwell and wife Susannah Edmiston came from Pennsylvania
(state) and settled on Johns Creek about the year 1773.  Securing his
title to a boundary of land from Wm Thompson and Wm Preston who
procured their title from King George III.
