I am researching the following family lines in the Owen county area. I am more then willing to exchange info on any of these lines listed. 1) John CARTER born 1-2-1813 died 2-27-1901 married 1st Eliza NUTTERFIELD (daughter of George); married 2nd Ann SINCLAIR. John and Eliza had 13 children. I descend from: 1) son-Calvin born 8-24-1835 died 9-22-1865 he married Rosella BALDON (daughter of McKinney). Their daughter Elizabeth Jane Carter born 3-3-1855 married John TRUAX(son of James TRUAX & Arlitta (CHAMBERS).Elizabeth Jane (Carter) & John Truax are my 3rd great grandparents.As luck would have it the father of Rosella BALDON is also my 5th great grandfather through other connections. 2) son-Morris born 7-26-1851 died 3-9-1934 he married Susan Mary DUNCAN (b. 10-12-1856) on 10- 15-1873 3) son-Ludwell born 4-3-1837 he married Mary Mahala McCullough (daughter of Wm.). They were married 10-28-1858. His wife was the granddaughter of my 6th great grandfather, which although doesn't make her my 4th great grandmother as I descend directly through one of her aunts in another line. As you can see, any hit on this line will reap benefits. John born in 1813 was also known to have a brother named Jobe who was born in about 1810, he was listed as deaf and dumb on census. John and family was known to have lived in the Owen county area just north of Quincy until about 1870 at which time they moved to Putnam county. ===== Debra Jennings debbiej_2001@yahoo.com "Following the footprints through time" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
