I do not know of Mary Flowers. If she was in Mississippi, I doubt that she was related
to the Carlisles of my ancestry. They came originally from Pennsylvania, and then in St.
Louis area. They bought the farm at SW 1/4, Section 24, Rock Creek Township, Hancock
County, Illinois, about 1854. That is where Dan Carlisle and his family live and farm,
along with many other parcels of land nearby. Joseph Carlisle, his oldest son, is now in
possession of the 1798 family Bible.

We lost the oldest Carlisle relative last year, Dorothy Carlisle Schneider (August 4, 1910
to June 6, 20020 who was up on family genealogy. She was daughter of Frank Lewis Carlisle,
(1885-1975) my great-uncle, brother of grandfather George Ernest Carlisle (April 21, 1888
- July 12, 1961).
