Has everyone found their Car(e)ys? My ancestors are Joseph Carey, b 31 Mar 1799 in VA and
Catharine Bacon b. 18Apr 1802. They lived in Washington Co., TN (E. TN). There is another
Joseph Car(e)y who married a Nancy and went to KY. He was born 1770-1780. In 1830, they
were in Sullivan Co., TN.
My Joseph was younger and in 1830 was in Washington Co., TN. Their children were:
John Carey b 1830,
Elijah Carey b. 11 Sep 1832 m. m 1852 Louisa J. Murray who died 1852 and m. 2)1857
Tymeander Bacon
Elkanah Carey b 1836
Benjamin L. Carey b 14 Sep 1838 m 1857 Sarah Catherine Douglass
Henry F. Carey b. 10 Oct 1838 m 1861 Louisa Bacon
Sarah Ann Carey b 07 Feb 1841 m 1861 Sylvenous Bacon
I believe that Benjamin S. Carey is a brother. His daughter, Hannah E. Carey, was listed
twice with both Benjamin and Joseph in 1850 but Hannah is living with Benjamin in the 1870
census. Here is my Joseph in 1830:
1830 Washington Co., TN (Is this the right one? --cm)

Male 0-5: 1 John
M 30-40: 1 Joseph 1790-1800 (1799)
