Message Board Post:
Henny,
We appreciate your effort and time spent in providing all the Will information for Edmund
and Elizabeth Whatley Carlisle. We have found their Wills posted to various sites on the
Internet and we have copies of them. Thank you for all the Will information you sent.
We had never seen the info about William's and Sara's Wills.
So, Anderson is Sara's maiden name, and Bell is her name from her first marriage.
That accounts for the children named Bell in her Will. It is interesting that there was
also a son named William Carlile, Jr., but there is nothing known about him.
The Will of Robert Carlisle b. abt 1734 Edgecombe Co., NC (married Sarah Coleman) that we
have copied differs some from what you have presented here. Our copy names daughters,
Susannah, Mary Ann, Sarah and Rhoda; it names sons, Coleman, Simon and Edwin, not Edward
and not Edmund.
We take the children's names in Robert's Will litererally, so, personally we
don't think Edmund is Robert's son. We may be wrong.
Are you familiar with the yDNA Carlisle Project? Do you know if a male descendant of
Robert (m. Sarah Coleman) has participated in the testing? If so, where on the chart is
the participant listed?
The messages we posted yesterday are posted backward. They would make more sense, if they
are read "bottom up", the earliest posted read first, etc. We started with
information about the yDNA Carlisle Project Tests taken by male Carlisle descendants which
indicate that Nathaniel, Edmund G., Hosea, Micajah and William Hastings Carlisle (a
descendent of our Thomas) Carlisle are closely related.
Rebecca and Clata
