Early Callaways
These are the earliest records we have of the Callaway family.
Elizabeth (Callaway) McClendon was born on March 24, 1760 at Bodmin Moor in Bodmin, England United Kingdom, and died at age 80 years old on March 29, 1840 in Troy, North Carolina United States. Family, friend, or fan, this family history biography is for you to remember Elizabeth (Callaway) McClendon.
Jemima's parents were frontiersman Daniel Boone (1734 - 1820) and Rebecca Ann "Becky" Bryan Boone (1739 - 1813). She had siblings James, Israel, Susannah, Levinga, Rebecca, Daniel Morgan, Jesse, William, and Nathaniel.
Jemima married Flanders Isham Callaway (1752- 1829) and they had children, Sarah " Sally", Minerva, John, James, Frances, Susannah, Tabitha, Larkin, Elizabeth, and Daniel (named for his grandfather).
A story from her life and neighbors "the Callaway girls" has often been told. It is summarized in Wikipedia: "Three girls were captured by a Cherokee-Shawnee raiding party on July 14, 1776 and rescued three days later by Daniel Boone and his party, celebrated for their success. The incident was portrayed in 19th-century literature and paintings: James Fenimore Cooper created a fictionalized version of the episode in his novel The Last of the Mohicans (1826) and Charles Ferdinand Wimar painted The Abduction of Boone's Daughter by the Indians (c. 1855)."
See G-G-Granddaughter Donates Boone Tomahawk for a brief article that appeared in 1963 when a memento of this kidnapping was donated to the Daniel Boone Shrine Association.
In comparison to this exciting "adventure", life seems to have settled down for Jemima after she married and started to produce so many children. One of those children, Captain James Callaway, had a confrontation with Native Americans and lost his life. His father, Flanders, had to recover his son's body. A detailed account of this event can be found in an article which appeared in 1930 at Death of Captain James Callaway
