This is in reply to the following reply which I received today from Jcaf14(a)aol.com. I am
compiling a database of information about this branch of the family and would very much
like to include any information that you would like to contribute. I have come across
information about Myers Bright CARELOCK and some of his descendants in the past, but have
not yet been able to connect him to the rest of the CARLOCK/CARELOCK family.
I am actually a CEARLOCK, descended from another branch of this family, also from North
Carolia, by way of Warren Co., KY, and Fayette Co., IL. My maiden name of CEARLOCK is
pronounced like "CARELOCK" and is spelled as such in some documents.
Also following are copies of some related postings which relate to this same branch of the
family.

Hi. I am the great grand-daughter of Myers Bright. Saw you inquiry in
Rootsweb. Don't know much about family history, but do know we are related
to a bunch of Carelocks in North Carolina - one named Ernest Carelock. Most
of my family is in El Dorado, Arkansas.

I'm very glad you have started this mail list, since all I know is the
CARELOCK name. I have been unable to trace back to a name other than
CARELOCK. Here's hoping!!!
My CARELOCK line is Myers (Miers) Bright CARELOCK, born November 3, 1873, d
May 16, 1938. He married Delona Hicks. Some of the his children lived in
Arkansas.
Any help anyone is able to provide, would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Retreva

A search for the surname CARELOCK at the following site brings up 26
listings: <A

's WorldConnect Project: Global Search</A>. Furthermore, a search for the
surname CARELOCK at the following site brings up 20 current listings for
CARELOCKs living in the United States: <A

in Anchorage, Alaska, and 17 are in Arkansas. Of the 17 Arkansas listings,
13 are in El Dorado, 2 are in Little Rock, and 2 are in Bella Vista. I am
exploring the possibility that these CARELOCKs may be another branch of our
family. Can anyone tie the following individual into our family? Myers
Bright CARELOCK, b. 3 Nov. 1873; m. Delona HICKS; lived in Union Co., AR; d.
16 May 1938.
