I have found Jabel Carver on the 1830, 1840, and 1850 Pickens Co., S.C. census. In 1850 he is listed as age 47 and married to Nancy age 44. Their children are: John 21, Martin 19, Melinda 17, Richard 15, Annie, 13, Asa 11, Sarah 9, Walter 6, Russell 4, and Susan 2. This entire family seems to disappear after 1850. If anyone has information on any members of this family I would appreciate hearing from you. I am particularly interested in the son Asa who I believe may have married Rebecca Rogers in Polk Co., Tennessee around 1861. Betty Cason

I was doing a name search last night on the Polk site, and came across a female Milberry (Carter???) age 60, born GA, living with Jackson Carter, age 38, and a younger Jackson Carter, age 14. Does anyone have any idea who this lady might be? I am looking for Milberry Herrin Miller, wife of Wm. S. Miller. They were both from Hall Co. GA before moving into TN (Hamilton Co. c1840), and then Polk in 1850. I can find no trace of them in 1860, and they don't seem to have had any court transactions, ever anywhere. Could this be my Milberry and she married again, or was a caretaker of this 14 yo?

Looking For My Kuykendalls lived briefly in Hardeman County Tn. John Kuykendall married Mary Eubanks there in 1880. It appears they migrated through AL/MS/TN to AR. My grand mother Emma Jane Kuykendall Parker b. abt 1891 was in Shelby County, TN. Millington in 1920 and in Memphis in 1926 at the time of her death. She was married to William Parker. John Kuykendall was thought to be from IL but appeared in Hardeman CO. TN in 1880 to marry Mary Eubanks from MS and in Tipton CO. on voters registration 1891. Appreciate any help or suggestions.

Hello Everyone, This is my first post to the list, and it isnt a very good one. The reason being is that I am looking for my Calvin Blankenship without much to go on. I found Calvin BLankenship married to Deliah on the 1850 Texas County, MO census. Living next door to Calvin is WIlliam Blankenship and his wife, Pamela Jane. Since Calvin was only a couple of years older than William, I have to assume they are related, if not brothers, because they were the only Blankenships in TExas County at this time and they were both born in TN and both of their wives in IL (just thought that was interesting). SInce Calvin Died during the civil war (there is no record on him except a muster roll), he wasnt around when the government started asking where their parents were born. I followed Deiliah until 1880. I estimate her time of death between 1881-1883. I followed William, and he lists his parents as also being born in TN ..... although its a shot in the dark, is there anyone out there that has a link to a BLANKENSHIP's that had a son named Calvin, (who was born abt 1820-25) and/or William (b. abt.1823-1826). I do not have Calvin's parents names or their wives maiden names. I am hoping to connect them to someone who might be able to shed some light on this for me .... Thank you in advance!!!! Thank you!
