This is a follow-up to my previous postings titled "CARLOCK and CEARLOCK Families of
Allen Co. and Warren Co., KY."
The John D. CEARLOCK listed on the 1820 census for Simpson Co., KY, appears to be John D.
CARLOCK/CEARLOCK (s/o David CARLOCK/CARELOCK, Frederick CARLOCK/CARELOCK, David
GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans Peter GERLOCH/GERLACH.) He was born ca. 1795 and married Polly
GIBSON, d/o Jacob GIBSON, Jan. 6, 1814, in Warren Co., KY. This John CARLOCK/CEARLOCK was
not mentioned in the book "History of the Carlock Family," by Marion Pomeroy
CARLOCK, 1929. According to Katheryn HADDAD's (Haddad1940(a)yahoo.com) detailed Apr.
27, 2003, posting to the RootsWeb CARLOCK mailing list titled "Family of David
Carlock of Mecklenburg Co., NC, and Warren Co., KY," archived at the following site,
this John migrated to Missouri:

Additional information about this John can be found in Mary June's (BoxerB(a)aol.com)

As mentioned in my previous postings, this John CARLOCK/CEARLOCK's brother George W.
CARLOCK/CEARLOCK (b. ca. 1779, NC) was the progenitor of the CEARLOCK family of Fayette
Co., IL, and the CURLOCK family of Jefferson Co., IL. I do not yet have any information
about this John CARLOCK/CEARLOCK's descendants, although it appears from the 1820
census that he probably had a daughter under age 10 in 1820.
There were apparently two John CARLOCKs living in Simpson Co., KY, around 1820.
Reportedly both John CARLOCKs appear on Simpson Co., KY, tax lists. According to the
following site, Simpson Co., KY, was formed in 1819 from Allen Co., Logan Co., and Warren
Co.:

The second John CARLOCK (s/o Lemuel CARLOCK, Hanchrist CARLOCK, David GERLACH/CARLOCK,
Hans Peter GERLOCH/GERLACH) was born Oct. 1, 1772, southwestern VA; married Elizabeth; and
died Feb. 4, 1833, Simpson Co., KY. He is mentioned on pages 33, 396, and 437 of the book
"History of the Carlock Family," by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK, 1929. As mentioned
in my previous postings, his son George Washington CARLOCK/CARELOCK (1812 - 1862) of Allen
Co. and Warren Co., KY, was the father of Luther C. CARLOCK/CARELOCK (b. 1841) who was the
progenitor of the CEARLOCK family of Stephens Co., OK, and the CURLOCK family of Beckham
Co., OK. John's wife Elizabeth died ca. 1845, probably Montgomery Co., IL.
