==Calderhead family==
See [[Who's Who at Lincoln Heights Gospel Chapel, OH|Who's Who at Lincoln Heights Gospel Chapel]] (formerly the old Mansfield Gospel Hall) for a more detailed biography of the Calderhead family. Mansfield Gospel Hall, founded prior to 1936, had a division in 1948 when they rebranded as LHGC, and David transferred to AGH with some of his children, and Agnes stayed with other children in Mansfield until presumably the start of the newer [[Mansfield Gospel Hall, OH|Mansfield Gospel Hall]] founded about 1959 thru the preaching of Norman Crawford, Lorne McBain, etc.
 
Then it is assumed that David & Agnes reunited in co-founding the new MGH. Some of their descendants also assisted with the founding of [[Clyde Gospel Hall, OH|Clyde Gospel Hall]] founded about 1958. David was commended to the Lord's work presumably while in Scotland, also in his time in Phillipsburg, [[New Jersey]] 1930-1931+, and definitely by the assembly in Asheville, [[North Carolina]] when he removed in 1940 to the old [[Lincoln Heights Gospel Chapel, OH|Mansfield Gospel Hall]].
