Excerpt from the book, The MacQueens Of Queensdale
Written by her daughter, Annabella Bunting McCallum McElyea, Chapter XIV

"Charity Ann L.ee MacQueen, 1813-1884, daughter of Col. James and Ann MacRae MacQueen, married Mr. Duncan MacCallum, of Robeson County, N. C, on July 6, 1843, they lived until their death at the old Queensdale home, and unto them were born the following children:
An infant, who died at birth,
Ann Flora MacCallum,
Angus Brown MacCallum,
Annabella Bunting MacCallum,
James Archibald MacCallum,
Maria MacCallum.

Mrs. Charity Ann Lee MacCallum, was the youngest child of Col. James MacQueen and wife. She was tall, slender, and exceedingly graceful in her carriage ; her hair was dark brown, and her eyes gray. She was well educated and thoroughly refined. A considerable part of her education was obtained in a most excellent academy of high grade in Cheraw, S. C. In disposition, she was affectionate. tenderhearted, and charitable, and I thought her the sweetest and best mother in the world. As has been said, she was not only the youngest of the children, but outlived all her brothers and sisters. She died May 13, 1884, and is buried beside her husband in the cemetery at Smyrna Church."
