Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judge Caleb Wallace was descended from the clan which bears the name of Wallace in the Highlands of Scotland. In the present state of research, however, no effort will be made to trace his lineage beyond the Scottish emigrant who established this particular branch of the family in America. The name of that Scottish emigrant was Peter Wallace; in the records of the family he is spoken of as a Highland Scotchman; but it is likely that on his way to America he passed a season of greater or less length in the North of Ireland. His wife was a Scottish lady, Elizabeth Woods by her maiden name, to whom he may have been united during his sojourn in Ireland.-pg. 1.
