Becky,
You may remember that a couple of years ago Chuck Carden shared some
info. on Thomas A. Carden with the Carden Rootsweb list.
This may be what your new friend is seeking : -- Chuck Carden wrote:
According to my records Thomas A. Carden (1887-1912) is Rufus
Bartholomew Carden's 1st born. Rufus married Mabel Agnes Strickland in
March 1887, Coosa County, AL
They had 5 children and I have very limited info on them, and for the
life of me I can't tell you were the info came from:
Thomas A. Carden- 14 Oct 1887- 28 July 1912
Susan Delilah Carden - 17 Aug 1889 - 24 Jun 1953
James William Carden - 13 Jan 1892 - 19 Mar 1946
Mary Jane Carden - 16 Jan 1893 - 3 Mar 1977
David J. Carden - 20 Sep 1894 - 17 Apr 1958
Rufus & Mabel are living with their son, David J. Carden and his family;
listed in his house hold on the 1930 Federal Census in Ocampo, Chilton
County,AL.
That house hold is as follows:
Rufus B. Carden age 68
Mabel A. Carden age 70
David J. Carden age 35
Zilphia M. Carden age 32
Carl C. Carden age 12
Clide C. Carden age 10
Walter L. Carden age 8
David J. Carden age 6
Jack C. age 1
There is no mention of Shelby Co, AL here... but the names and places
seem to 'match' in other areas of AL.
For instance --- see Civility & some of her kids on the 1870 census for
Marshall Co,AL (attached info.).
Chuck said he didn't have any more info. at the time as this wasn't his
line...nor is it mine. We were just fascinated by Civility Ball
Carden's name seeming to come up over & over in the research at the
time.
Cheers, Martha

Hello Fellow Carden's.
I went to my genealogy club meeting today, and I met a lady, that has
Carden ancestors.
I don't have much information, but was wondering, if any of you might
know anything about her Grandmother.
Her name was, Susan Deliah Carden, and she was married to a Henry Thomas
Noble.
She said, that they were in Shelby Co. Al., and then were in Chilton Co.
Al. I believe she said, the Susan Deliah Carden, had a brother named
David!
She was a visitor, and said, she was researching Nobles and Carden's,
and when I heard that, after the program, I made a bee line to talk to
her.
Any and all help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Becky Carden
