This is in reply to Gwena ZIKE's (dzk217@consolidated.net) Apr. 14, 2004, posting to the HARRIS-HUNTERS-L@rootsweb.com list titled "Harris' Brunswick county VA, Rutherford & Burke counties in NC, and Fayette county IL." I do not find information in my database at this time about either your gr-gr.-grandmother, Della Filora CARLOCK, or your gr.-gr.-grandfather Charles E. HICKS, but would be very much interested in any additional information that you may wish to share with regard to them or their descendants. Do you have any additional information about Della Filora CARLOCK's ancestry so that we can connect her to the rest of the CARLOCK/CEARLOCK family tree? It appears that, through my gr.-gr.-grandparents, Joseph Edward "Edward/Ed" CEARLOCK (1870 - 1935) and his wife Mary Elizabeth HICKS (1870 - 1937), I am related to you in several different ways. My line from Ed and Mary is as follows: Joseph Edward CEARLOCK and Mary Elizabeth HICKS Claude Abner CEARLOCK Voris Carney CEARLOCK Rex Duane "Duane" CEARLOCK Susan Elaine "Sue" CEARLOCK First, I am twice descended from Isaac HARRIS whom you mention. My two HARRIS lines to Ed and Mary are as follow: Isaac HARRIS Wooten HARRIS William B. HARRIS Frances Jane HARRIS Elilia B. "Emily" SEARS Mary Elizabeth HICKS who m. Joseph Edward CEARLOCK Isaac HARRIS Zachariah HARRIS Lucinda HARRIS Thursa "Thersey" RHODES James Robert "Robert" CEARLOCK Joseph Edward CEARLOCK who m. Mary Elizabeth HICKS Second, my HICKS line to Mary Elizabeth HICKS is as follows: Robert HICKS Thomas HICKS Daniel HICKS William HICKS Jacob HICKS Lewis HICKS Henry HICKS Mary Elizabeth HICKS who m. Joseph Edward CEARLOCK Third, my CARLOCK/CEARLOCK line from George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, to the above-mentioned Joseph Edward CEARLOCK is as follows. I believe, but do not yet have proof, that George was s/o David CARLOCK, Frederick CARLOCK, David GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans GERLACH, as shown in the following report which appears on my home page: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/t/i/l/Susan-E-Tilleman/GENE18-0001.html George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK Abraham CARLOCK/CARELOCK John Henry CARLOCK/CEARLOCK James Robert "Robert" CEARLOCK Joseph Edward "Edward/Ed" CEARLOCK who m. Mary Elizabeth HICKS Additional information about my ancestry can be found in the following report which appears on my home page: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/t/i/l/Susan-E-Tilleman/GENE11-0001.html Further discussion regarding the ancestry of George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, can be found in the archives of the CEARLOCK list through the following site: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/c/cearlock.html Susan Cearlock Tilleman List Administrator of the CARLOCK and CEARLOCK Lists http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/t/i/l/Susan-E-Tilleman/?Welcome=1082568627 ----- ARCHIVED MESSAGE----- http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/HARRIS-HUNTERS/2004-04/1081956864 FROM: "Darren and Gwena" dzk217@consolidated.net TO: HARRIS-HUNTERS-L@rootsweb.com SENT: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 10:34:24 -0500 SUBJECT: Harris' Brunswick county VA, Rutherford & Burke counties in NC, and Fayette county IL My Harris ancestors. (This information was provided to me by a cousin who has been researching for years) Isaac Harris b. 1729 d.1800 spouse: unknown note: Isaac was a revolutionary war soldier. (I have found much more info on him, thank you Larry) children: Wooten Harris b. March, 1759 Brunswick County, VA d. February 11, 1840 note: Wooten is the only revolutionary war veteran buried in Fayette County, Illinois Wooten married Frances Adams b. March 19, 1765 children: Sterling b. November 21, 1784 in NC Martha b. October 16, 1786 in Rutherford County, NC Elizabeth b. November 14, 1788 in Burke County, NC Joel b. March 3, 1791 in Burke County, NC Frances (Frankie) b. June 14, 1793 in Burke County, NC Benjamin b. November 31, 1798 William Berry b. August, 26 1798 in VA/NC Catherine Carolina (Catie) b. November 6, 1800 in NC Mary Polly b. March 11, 1803 in NC note: There seems to be an incorrect birthdate listed for either Benjamin and my William Berry may be a typo listing them born in the same year. William Berry d. January 6, 1875 in Fayette County, IL spouse: Sarah H. Dodson b. September 29, 1802 in North Carolina child: Elizabeth Harris b. 1836 spouse: Pleasant Franklin Scribner, JR b. 1833 child: Sarah Ellen Scribner b. 1862 in Bingham, Fayette County, IL d. 1958 Vandalia, IL burial Harris cemetery Fayette Co, spouse: Anthony Thornton Garland b. January 23, 1867 They had several children one of which was my g-grandfather William Whitfield Garland. The following is my second connection to the Harris line, it is not as complete as I don't have dates as of yet. Catherine Carolina (Catie) married James Thomas Hicks Alfred R. Hicks married Elizabeth Davis Jasper Marion Hicks married Sarah Caroline Herrin Charles E. Hicks married Della Filora Carlock and their daughter Florence Cecale Hicks was my g-grandmother and she married William Whitfield Garland the son of Sarah Ellen Scribner and Anthony Garland. Please forgive any errors this was typed with the help of my 2 young children. Does anyone have any of the above listed in their lines? We were told that we were of Native American descent and am curious if other Harris' were told the same and if there is any merit to it. I was told this by my family and my distant cousin who I've never met was told the same as was my half unce whom I just met this year. (Gotta love the internet) Thank you for reading my book.
