The following message was posted to the SHINN list yesterday. According to page 616 of the book "History of the Carlock Family", by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK, 1929, Josiah Carlock SHINN was the son of Rebecca CARLOCK (d/o George, Frederick, David). The book says that Rebecca was born ca. 1800, in Mecklenburg Co., NC, married SHINN, and emigrated to Rowan-Mecklenburg-Cabarrus County, Arkansas. Furthermore, it says that Rebecca's son Josiah Carlock SHINN was the father of Josiah H. SHINN, who was reared in Arkansas, then later moved to Washington, DC.

One is a family gathering. In about 1890, the only Shinn left in NC, Thomas Jefferson Shinn, made the trip to Arkansas to visit his remaining siblings. They made a picture. In this picture are: Silas Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, Nathaniel Duncan Shinn, and Eliza Carlock Shinn Reed, Elizabeth Gilpin Shinn Judd, wife of Josiah Carlock Shinn and mother of Josiah Carlock Shinn. Also Letitia, wife of Silas Monroe I don't know if I can/should imbed or attach this photo, so if you would contact me I would email it Pat in AR
