- From another researcher: Miss Eliza Caldwell [should read Colwill], who was born in North Petherwin, Cornwall in the year 1833. She was the daughter of William and Harriet (nee Harris), and sister of William [Colwill] who married Hannah Banbury.

RESEARCH NOTES
- last name listed as COLWILL and CALDWELL
From a descendant: “First of all, the wife of John Charles Banbury, mother of Emma Geraldine Banbury, was not Eliza Caldwell, as reported in  Knox County Ohio Vital Records, Ancestry, but was Eliza Colwill, sister of the William Colwill whom Hannah Banbury, John Banbury's sister, married. The "Caldwell/Colwill" confusion is long-standing, but the correct name is Colwill. My aunt has independent evidence of the incorrectness of the Caldwell name.The parents of Eliza and William came from near the Cornwall-Devon border to Knox County, Ohio, probably in the early 1840s, and may have been part of the general recruiting done by Richard Banbury and his kith and kin.”

- Genuki lists North Petherwin as being in Devon, surrounded on 3 sides by Cornwall. It was transferred from Devon to Cornwall in 1966.
