    • Notes of Margaret Corbin Lutz: [she has his birth as Feb.18, 1840 which conflicts with his headstone transcription of Feb. 19]
      Henry was a major in the Confederate Army under Gen. Fagan. Owned a pottery in Sebastion Co. Ark. (Niloak Pottery) until 1870 when they moved to Benton and he opened a general mercantile business in 1872. Dr. Davis Cecil, a Presbyterian minister of Guthrie, Okla. and Okla. City, and Dallas Texas in 1973, knew this family and he states that Henry Caldwell was an albino. Also that during the war Henry was out in a clearing, in his night shirt cutting wood, when a group of Union soldiers appeared. They raised their guns to fire on him and he took off at top speed and vaulted a fence in one jump and got away. It is said that the commander of the troops told his men to hold their fire, if any old man could run and jump like that, he should be spared. He belonged to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. According to an obit, they were survived by 5 children, 18 grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild. Her family moved from Georgia to Nevada Co., Ark in 1847.
