Soon after his arrival he married an English lady in Williamsburg, Miss Winifred Waller of distinguished parentage, possessed of noble qualities of mind and rare virtue. He removed to the Shenandoah valley and consequently became one of the early settlers. His home was in Clark County near the Shenandoah river, where he acquired by grant of Lord Fairfax a large tract of land. In 1743 he was appointed by Hon. William Gooch his majesties Lieut Governor and Commander in Chief of the colony and dominion of Virginia, under the seal of the colony, appointing Marquis Calmes one of the original thirteen justices that constituted the first court of Frederick County, Clark being a part of Frederick. He served with distinction attaining rank of Major in the Indian war. Throughout he bravely defended his Country. He died in 1781 and was buried on his "The Vine Yard Plantation." On a horizontal slab of granite, which is the oldest monument in the cemetery adjoining "Old Chapel" appears following inscription.
Here lies the body of Winifred wife of Major Marquis Calmes. They were joined in wedlock twenty-six years and had six children. (There follows a lost of children whose dates have been incorporated to this database.).3

Biography*1976  In 1976 The following is an excerpt from note written by Herman Charles Vollmer in 1976 when asked about his family remembrances: I did phone David's wife. I don't remember meeting her or Viola either for that matter. She was a very nice over the phone. I have her phone number in book that Mom Mom kept. David has been dead six years (1976). He was a master printer at Government Printing Office all his life, retired, and worked for Star Newspaper. David was year or so older than me. We played together much as boys. They lived with us in Georgetown until his father (Uncle Bob) build a house in Balston, Virginia. We visited there often. I understand the house is still there but Ballston as a name is gone. (It has since returned as the name of a stop on the Washington Metro line). It was in vicinity of where Hecht Company in Virginia on Wilson Boulevard.
