We caught up and exchanged information this time last year. Those messages are added below. Please let me know if there's anything I can help you with. Best Regards, Lola ----------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 1/11/01 Hello Dolores, Yes, I remember you, and it has been a while. I wrote you in 1987, but my letter was returned. It's good to hear from you again. Actually, I'm not a Loggins/Loggains, Raines, or Tuttle descendant. My ancestor was John Wallace Carr who married Nancy Ann (Tuttle) Loggins. Together, they had two children: Cleveland W.W. "Cleve" Carr and John C. Carr. John Wallace Carr's first wife, Nancy Goodman, was my grandmother. Anyway, when we were in touch, I was looking for Larnce Loggins, son of Nancy (Tuttle) Loggins, because my mother said he had the Carr family Bible. Plus. I was trying to find John C. Carr, who was adopted by a Chumley family after Nancy (Tuttle) Loggins Carr died in 1923. I've never found the Bible but did find John C. Carr or John Calvin Chumley. Unfortunately, not while he was still alive. BTW, do you know of a Chumley connections to any of your family lines? According to information I have, John C. Carr's adopted parents were Jessie Cafate Chumley and Rosey Greadley. Do these names ring any bells? I'll look forward to hearing from you.

You desc from Milly and i desc from Millys brother John allen Raines. i have got the Raines back 2 more gen. finally, would like to hear from you Dolores --------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 1/15/01 Hello Dolores, Having a computer has ruined me! I rarely send or receive letters by snail mail these days. In fact, when I did get one via regular mail, it was difficult to compose and write a proper reply. I've just about forgotten how it's done. Actually, I didn't find J.C. Carr but rather found John Calvin Chumley. I searched for J.C. Carr for years without any luck. Then, it finally dawned on me that I should be looking for Chumley not Carr. Anyway, I found John Chumley listed in Social Security Death Index and sent for a copy of his SS application form. He was born 07 June 1923 in Tuckerman, Jackson Co., AR as J.C. Carr was. I would love to find his descendants but never have. I found John Calvin Chumley's burial in the Sharp Co., AR cemetery book. He's the only Chumley listed. According to his headstone, he served in WWII, but it seems unlikely that I can pursue this line of research because I'm not John's descendant. I've done pretty well on the Carrs and have them traced back to Hamilton Co., TN cl840. I couldn't get beyond my g grandfather for years until I found his father's Civil War records. Since my gg grandfather died during the war, his file was loaded with information-a genealogist's dream. How is your research going? Keep in touch.
