Last night before writing you, I checked the following censuses through www.censuslinks.com for Carlock, Gerlock, Kerlock: KENTUCKY: Anderson - no early censuses Logan - 1810 census, none Warren - 1810 David Carlock b.c. 1760 or before NORTH CAROLINA: Cabarrus - no early censuses Mecklenburg - 1790, but missed the ones you told me about this morning (thanks) Rutherford - 1790, 1800, 1810, 1820 - none Stokes - 1790, 1800, 1810 - none "David" keeps piquing my interest. My William Vance named his first son after himself (or maybe his father), and his second son David. (His last son was Francis Marion and called himself "Ransom." He, by the way, was b. in Schuyler Co., IL, probably while visiting relatives. But I haven't found the connection.) The John Carlock you mentioned in Cape Girardeau could be the one that my William Vance Carlock sold land to in Cape Girardeau/Stoddard Co. in the 1830s. (a) I have a cousin who lives in NC, and maybe she'll go to the Mecklenburg courthouse for me. Did those in Cabarrus, Rutherford, and Stokes Co. live there a long time before or after 1790? Just curious. (b) With what you gave me on Mecklenburg, I'm going to try to compare nearby residents with those living near my William Vance Carlock in Cape Girardeau/Stoddard Co., MO. I did that for my Wills family in Lincoln Co., NC once, to see if others from PA went with them, and found a bunch. (c) I will go to WorldConnect and see what I can find out about some of his nbrs. in Missouri. (d) Maybe late next summer I'll be in Stoddard Co., MO, and can check some things at the courthouse. Maybe go to Cape Girardeau Co. too. This is all I know to do. After doing (b) and (c) above, I'll put the Carlocks back away and wait until my cousin and I can get to those courthouses. Thanks, as always, for your help. You are an outstanding webmaster. So many of them never provide feedback, so the site goes pretty much dead. But your site is always alive and kicking!

I was just now able to bring up the 1830 census of Cape Girardeau Co., MO, on your census-online, whereas it has been down recently on censuslink. I found my William Carlock on page 1. I knew he was there, but the person who copied the census a long time ago and told me about it did not write down the ages. I am also writing down the names of the neighbors so I can trace them on WorldConnect, and also compare them with Mecklenburg Co., NC. Oops! Just looked out the window. Snowing again. It's 6 degrees (that's right, folks, SIX) with a high expected of 9 (you heard me right, NINE). Yes, I live in Canada. But don't you southerners and Californians think we like all this cold. Our forebearers came here to get work (many during the depression or one of the wars), raised their families, the children stayed around and raised their families, and who wants to be very far from family? So we develop a stiff upper lip (Winston Churchill's version of frozen) and stick it out. Katheryn
