John Caldwell Calhoun, American politician and political theorist, was married to Floride Bonneau Colhoun (m. 1811 to 1850). She was the daughter of U.S. Senator John E. Colhoun and Floride Bonneau.

John C. Calhoun, was his wife's first-cousin-once-removed (her father's first cousin). Note the different spellings of the surname: Calhoun and Colhoun. It was not uncommon before 1930 for two people within an extended family to marry. It was also common that spelling of a surname changed, even in the same generation of people.
