Hi, Ruth;
This family is recorded in the database of the Calkins Family Association.We know quite a bit about John, and have his line back to the immigrants Hugh and Ann. (Incidentally, despite what it says in the IGI, it is quite certain that Hugh, Sr.'s father was not William Calkins).However we know little about Elizabetn Curtis except that her parents were Jonathan Curtis and Elizabeth Burt.
John had eight children by first wife Katharine Foster before she died, then had eleven more with Elizabeth.His youngest was born when he was nearly 70.Hard to believe, but that is what the records say.We would like to learn more about John/Eliza's children, especially the youngest, Mabel Calkins.
If you would like a print of John.s ancestry, let me know.
Regards,Ken Calkins
