14. | Calvin Topping* was born in 1840 in Vermont, U.S.A. (son of Robert Topping and Rachael Quick); died in 1923. Notes:
arrived Canada 1844 and lived with Calvin & Rosana Quick who were probably his uncle & aunt, since his marriage record (2nd marriage) says his mother was Rachel Quick, father Robert Topping. A search for a Rachel Quick who married a Topping revealed such a union in Montgomery County with a Robert Topping, b 1836 serving in the Civil War; probably a brother of Calvin's. A marriage record shows David S. Topping marrying Rachel Quick in Montgomery in 1832, witnessed by Robert Topping; perhaps the names were mixed up. A search for Toppings in Vermont revealed nothing significant.
