I am interested in all branches/ all offspring of the CARAWAN family. The
information in your current release I think that I had allready. Probably
got it from Kitty Humphries or from one of your cousins at Hobucken. If you
want to cooperate with me by providning marriage information, birth dates
and places, death dates and places and burial information I will send you by
snail mail a couple of forms. I have a fine computer with Windows 95 and a
word up date to 97 but all of my genealogical information is in the computer
in a DOS code called family. If you send data by e mail, I have to re
process it. If you send a newspaper obituary I have to re process it. That
sounds laborious, but about 95% of my work is in the computer and there is
no point of trying to up grade. I was in Roanoke Rapids on Monday. Peace be
with you , Claud W. Carawan, JR.

Subject: CARAWAN family
Hello. My name is Wynn Weston HERBERT. I am a descendent of Kitturah
"Kitty" CARAWAN, 1861-1930, died in Roanoke Rapids, NC.
Before starting I would like to thank John McGowan and Kitty Humphries for
all the
information they have shared with me about my CARAWAN Family.
Kitty CARAWAN was my ggm. She married George M. Spain 5 Feb 1882 in
Pamlico Co.,
NC. She was born 11 Dec 1861 in Lowland, NC. She was the
daughter of Goerge Marcus CARAWAN (1830-1917) and Mary Elizabeth Fulford of
Goose Creek, NC. I have an aunt in her 80's but still of good mind who
remembers visiting her gm Kitty in Roanoke Rapids. If anyone is interested
in knowing about Kitty Carawan Spain I will share her name and phone number.
I have no pictures of her. If anyone has one I would love to have a copy.
Kitty was a small woman with dark hair, quiet as remembered by my aunt.
Parents of George Marcus CARAWAN were Benjamin CARROWAN and Delilah WHITE,
b ab
1780.
Parents of Mary Elizabeth Fulford were Josephus H. FULFORD b ab 1800
and
Eliza DANIELS.
Back to Kitty CARAWAN and George M. SPAIN. They had 5 children Hattie
Elizabeth(1882-1910),
Parle G.(1888-?), Georga M.(1890-?), Luther H. (1895-?) and Howard
E(1900-1967). Again my aunt remembers these people as her aunts and uncles.
I also have some pictures. All but Howard married and the marriage took
place in Kitty's house. I have married certificates for most.
The oldest daughter Hattie Elizabeth Spain is my gmother. She married
James Branch
Weston of Rich Square, NC. Northampton Co
Hattie and James Branch WESTON had 3 children, Hector, Irene and James
Hudson
WESTON.
My father is James Hudson WESTON.
thank you
Wynn Weston Herbert
