Caledonia is missing Censuses for 1860 and 1900.

Caledonia can be found in this rather large newspaper article, which contains a great deal of GOOD INFORMATION, because it helps us to keep people connected to the correct people.

Mrs. Caledonia Clay in the Alabama, U.S., Newspapers.com™ Stories and Events Index, 1800's-current
The Moulton Advertiser Moulton, Alabama · Thursday, October 13, 1887 (YEAR OF MARRIAGE IS LISTED AS 1845) Thomas F. and Caledonia Ann Oliver or WEEDEN had a total of 4 children and only 1 is connected to them on Find A Grave.

Caledonia has an obituary. (Caledonia is showing up in some trees with 2 HUSBANDS AFTER THE DEATH OF THOMAS F. CLAY; it does not appear that she ever remarried.)

Mrs. Caledonia Clay Dead.
Mrs. Caledonia Clay died at the home of her son-in-law, Mr. Wheeler Watson, in Monroe county at an early hour last Thursday morning. Mrs. Clay, who at the time of her death was about seventy-seven years old, was related to some of the most prominent people in Columbus, having been sister -in-law of Gen. J.S. Billups and an aunt of Dr. John Oliver. She was for a number of years a resident of this city and is fondly remembered by many of our older citizens.
The body was brought to this city for internment, the funeral having taken place at Friendship cemetery at 11 o'clock Friday morning and having been conducted by Rev. T.W. Lewis pastor of the First Methodist Church.

Thomas F. Clay 1825 and Caledonia Ann Oliver (LISTED AS WEEDEN ON THE DEATH CERT FOR HER DAUGHTER ALICE C. CLAY WATSON.) Alice married Wheeler WATSON they had Thomas Clay Watson married Nina C. Clay, who was the daughter of Isham Harrison and Nancy Nevil Prather Clay. Isham was THE SON OF DR. MATTHEW AND MARY VIVIAN SHOWING AS VIRGINIA HARRISON ON HER FIND A GRAVE CLAY. This is important, because DR. MATTHEW CLAY WAS THE BROTHER OF THOMAS F. CLAY 1825. *I manage over 20 DNA KITS FOR 9 OF US AT THE MOMENT, AND WE JUST ORDERED 6 MORE KITS; that will give us a total of like 36 DNA TESTS for 16 of us. That will give us 5 full generations for my dad's line, 4 full generations for my mother's line, and 2 bonus kits: 1 for my lifelong friend Silvia and 1 for my mother's brother's wife. I am running into many DNA MATCHES THAT ARE FALLING INTO MANY LINES, INCLUDING THOSE OF MY FRIENDS AND MY UNCLE WIFE. When we have INTERMARRIAGE the children of those lines will complicate things when it comes to DNA AND CHROMOSOME SEGMENTS. Please be patient with me while I sort all of this out.
