I am new to the Carden List, and am posting what little data I have in hopes
of connecting with other cousins and researchers.
It appears I am descended from Leonard Carden of Monroe county Tennessee.
His daughter, Catherine Carden, married Elbert or Albert Clowers. I am descended
through their daughter, Verlillie Catherine Clowers who married Ephraim
Ledford. Their daughter Minnie Lee Ledford was my grandmother who married Ira
Benjamin Prince.
I have been to the Monroe county library just several weeks ago. The staff
was very friendly and helpful, but I had a short time to research. I did find
and copy the will of Leonard Carden, which mentions his daughter Catherine.
Elbert and Catherine Carden Clowers are buried at Kennemar cemetery in Jackson
county Alabama. I have pictures of their headstones taken just several weeks
ago.
I hope some of my cousins respond and fill me in on my Carden family! LOL
