I found this on the KY search site. Descendants of George W. Carlock may already know about it. But here it is: The Read/Duncan Family of Allen County, KY File Contributed by: Willis P. Oliver 2/10/1997 The Read/Duncan Family of Allen County, KY The following is my transcription of two 1889 newspaper clippings which provide wonderful details about the lives and history of theRead/Duncan family of Fauquier Co.,VA and Allen Co., KY. I made everyeffort to retain the original spelling, punctuation and grammar. The two clippings were in a two-ring binder which belonged to mygreat-grandmother, Nancy Helen (Carlock) Groves (19 August 1843-1 Feb.1935, Hermleigh, TX), whose mother was Kitty Virginia Read (13 December1815- ca 1845), wife of George W. Carlock. Kitty was born CatharineVirginia Read, daughter of Robert C. and Nancy Read, and granddaughter ofJohn and E. Read of Culpeper Co., Va.Willis P.

One Brother Lives in Allen County, Another in Simpson County, andthe Third in Louisville. The Remarkable Kindness with Which Fortune Has Treated the Membersof the Read Family. An unusual event is to occur this year in Kentucky. In 1839, three brothers, Samuel J., Edmond D. F., and TraverseArthur Read, all then living in Allen County this State, were married tothree of Kentucky's daughters. All three of these brothers who started onthe matrimonial voyage the same year, and their wives are alive and welltoday, and the six old people propose to have a grand family gathering tocelebrate together their golden weddings. Although the snows of half acentury have bleached the locks of their younger days, and their forms andfaces bear the imprint of old Father Time, the feelings of these sixestimable people are still as fresh as in the days when the brothersa-courting went. The grand event of the year is looked forward to by themwith a pleasant anxiety, exceeded only by that preceding those otherweddings of the long ago. In 1810 Mr. Theopolis Read, a native of Fauquier county, Virginia,moved to Allen county, Kentucky and settled there. His family consisted atthast time of four young sons and his wife, who was Miss Margaret Duncan ofCulpeper county, Virginia. Mrs. Read, the mother of the subjects of thissketch was the Aunt of Hon. James G. Fields, a gallant Confederate leaderand former Attorney General of Virginia. He is now practicing law atCulpeper C. H. Virginia.
