A search beginning with the following site shows that the book "History of the
Carlock Family", by Marion Pomeroy Carlock, 1929, can be ordered through any of the
LDS Family History Centers:
http://www.familysearch.org/. Be sure to bookmark this site.
It is one of my favorites. This is also the site where you can find information on the
family of Hans GERLACH and Anna Maria KUMMER, as listed on my home page under the report
"User Home Page Genealogy Report: Descendants of Hans GERLACH/GARLOCK/CARLOCK".
Hans GERLACH and Anna Maria KUMMER were reportedly the parents of the three GERLACH
brothers who migrated to New York, New Jersey, and Virginia in the early part of the
eighteenth century, and who appear to be the ancestors of most CARLOCKs, CARELOCKs,
CEARLOCKs, and GARLOCKs, as well as some GARLICKs.
The book is available either as a microfilm or a microfiche. Here are the numbers I found
through the above-mentioned site: FHL US/CAN Film 1033974 Item 4, and FHL US/CAN Fiche
6331381. The last time I visited one of these sites, about 15 years ago, there was no
charge to view holdings which were already present in that particular Family History
Center at that time. There was a small fee to place an order to have a copy sent to that
branch. As I recall, at that time it was only $5 per item, but that has probably gone up
by now. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I also recall something about that once an item
was brought to a particular Family History Center, that item was able to stay there
permanently. Again, it is not necessary to be a member of the LDS Church to use their
libraries.
Through the following site, you can easily find a family history site in your area:
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/Library/FHC/frameset_fhc.asp. For instance, when I looked
in my home county of Bexar County, Texas, six locations appeared!
I also found several other CARLOCK holdings available through the LDS Family History
Center, including the following CEARLOCK book which may be of interest to those people
descended from the branch of the CEARLOCK family that went to Johnson Co., Texas:
"Cearlock, Carlock, Curlock, Lane, Odom and Summy family histories", by Marilyn
Delores WARD LYNCH. I corresponded with Marilyn WARD LYNCH around 20 years ago.
