This is in reply to the following e-mail which I received from Winnie J. TATE MORGAN ([email protected]) yesterday. Although I do not find a Jacob CARLOCK who matches Winnie's description, the following individual matches most of her description. Does anyone have any additional information that may be of help to Winnie? Job CARLOCK (s/o Hanchrist CARLOCK, David GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans GERLACH), b. Aug. 27, 1777, Rockbridge Co. (now Smythe Co.), VA; m#1. Sarah MCDONALD, 1798; m#2. Elizabeth JOHNSON, 1816; d. Feb. 1855, Overton Co., TN; bd. Allred Cemetery, near Alpine, Overton Co., TN. According to page 598 of the book "History of the Carlock Family", by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK, 1929, Job had 8 children by his first wife and 9 children by his second wife. One of his children by his first wife was Nancy, b. Mar. 10, 1801, who m. Clem MEANS. Job did have a brother named Jacob, b. 1775, d. 1840 - 1850, but the information about Jacob and his family found on pages 577 and 578 of the same book makes no mention of him ever being in Overton Co., TN.

I descend from TATE and CARLOCK. There is a double connection. HANSCHRIST GERLACH/CARLOCK is as far as I can go back on CARLOCK. A Presbyterian minister named CLEMMENS SMITH MEANS married NANCY CARLOCK; their daughter, MARTHA MEANS married SAMUEL WILLIAM TATE. I think there is an earlier connection between TATE, McDONALD and CARLOCK but I have not been able to establish it. Please e-mail me direct [email protected] if you can give me any information. Thanks, Winnie J. Tate Morgan
