Married Isabel Wason in Portsmouth, Rockingham County, N.H 3/20/1734 ***Children, all born at Nottingham West (now Hudson), NH, listed under Isabels's memorial From the "History of Hudson, NH, Formerly a Part of Dunstable, Mass 1675-1733 Nottingham Mass. 1733-1741 District of Nottingham 1746-1830 Hudson, NH 1830-1912", by Kimball Webster, ed. by George Waldo Brown, Manchester, N.H., Granite State Publishing Co, 1913 "John Caldwell, who may have been from Londonderry, settled on Bush Hill about 1738. The farm owned and occupied by him was the next one south, and adjoining the same farm that was later owned by Asa Davis. 2/16/1796, James Caldwell, his brother, conveyed to Asa Davis, 65 acres of land more or less which James received by inheritance, and now called the Morrison farm (written in 1913). A part of the same land remained in the possession of the Caldwell family until a very recent date (passage from 1913). He was a land surveyor and a farmer. He died February 25, 1765". It is not certain Blodgett Cemetery is his final resting place but according to Hudson, NH records, he died at Nottingham West, 2/25/1765, and was buried in Nottingham West. There were only three cemeteries in town at the time of his death: Hills Farms Cemetery, Ford Burial Ground, and Blodgett Cemetery. Mr. Kimball cited Caldwell and Wason as some of the most notable names in Blodgett Cemetery. "Early settlers seldom erected head stones with inscriptions so the markings found do not indicate the earliest internments". "Family lots were located and laid out upon the vacant grounds and either from carelessness or willfulness, new lots were plotted upon the mounds of ancient graves which were obliterated by this vandalism."
