Hi Jim, Thank you for the offer to check your data base for my CARLILE family. All indications are my Thomas Carlile's father, William Niler Carlile Sr., did come from South Carolina. Several of Wm Sr's children state they were born in SC. They must have been in SC before 1818 as I have them in Eastern Arkansas at that date. Ido have FGS for both Wm Sr. and my Thomas. What other info do you need? I tried to send this to your e-mail address but it bounced. Dian
