As reported in "The Calvin Families-Origin and History of the American Calvins" and elsewhere, Barbara married her cousin Jacob Kuykendall, and he was captured by Indians while on a hunting trip to Ohio from Hampshire County, VA (now WV). Believing him to be dead, she married James Calvin (or Colvin). But Jacob returned seven years later. Barbara and Jacob were divorced on 17 Feb 1773. She continued to live with James Colvin, by whom she had several children. She eventually moved to Kentucky. Jacob is said to have returned to live with the Indians or he may have settled in Jefferson Co., Kentucky

Some of the properties are intact today, and the home one one property - Cornehill - is on the National Register of Historic Places
