Notes

Caleb came to Gatlinburg from the 10th district of the county, first appearing in the census record of 1860 when he was in the household of Jacob Houser. He went to visit his folks in the 10th district of Sevier County where he died and was buried.

There is an Bales infant born 6 February 1831 died 19 February ?? in Bales Cemetery listed as son of J.W. and M. L. This infant may have been Caleb's brother thus making his parents J. W. and M. L. Bales.
