Thanks for your response. Unfortunately I find nothing that connects but will keep your
email in my files.
I believe my Carlile/etc family was in TN, KY, TX and maybe IL or MS based on census
answers and some items I found online, but I have no documentation.
My husband remembered his grandparents moved to OK and back to TX and there was Indian
blood in his family somewhere but that was pretty much it.
Richard Dixon was born abt 1835-37 in KY, or according to his sons census IL or MS.
Richard was in Erath Co, Texas by 1859 and married Susan Elizabeth McAdams b/abt 1842, MS;
unfourtunately the courthouse and all documentation burned some years later.
Richard's parents were supposedly born in or were of TN, I estimate early 1800's.
I have found Richard buried in Kingsbury, Guadalupe Co, TX and his sons moved on to Waco,
McLennan, TX and I believe some of them went to Yuma, AZ, based on info in
Ancestry.com.
Hopefully I can find a death certificate for him.
I have just put my Carlile family tree on Rootsweb if anyone is interested.
Good Hunting,
CW

Hello CW,
I am currently trying to trace the beginnings of our Carlile(Carlyle)
ancestors. I do have a Arthur Lenard born to Elizabeth Marilda (Carlile)
Cutshaw. Born 1887 in Kansas but this is a long shot for you I know. I do
not believe he was born in Kansas because I have not acquired the birth
certificate and this history is sketchy because I have found many mistakes
with the report my grandmother paid for.
Anyway to make a long story short William and Sarah had 11 children,
born 1857-1885,and though I have one of the daughters who named one of the
sons Arthur, I have not completed the children of the other sons named Sam,
Jacob, and Benjamin. I have much partial information, if I can help you let
me know.
I did find a long lost cousin in Missouri from one of these kids of Wm
and Sarah. William and Sarah are buried in Oklahoma.
Sincerely
Cheri Klindt
