Message Board Post:
Susan Carlock was born 1845 in Alabama. She was black and was likely brought to Texas as
a favored slave of one of the Carlock brothers - she lived in Pittsburg Texas along with
at M.D. (Marcus DeWitt) Carlock (b 1852) and T.T. (Thomas Tillman) Carlock Jr (b 1851). A
couple of interesting points of interest is that MD Carlock was the census taker in Camp
County Texas in the 1880 US Federal Census where Susan is listed so I doubt that they did
not know of each other.
Susan actually had nine children with the last name carlock:
Mary (b 1872) Lucy (b 1873) Ann (b 1876) John (b 1880) James (b 1884) Clyde Carl (b 1885)
Roy (b 1888) Sidney (b 1888) and Emmitt (b 1890). and the 10th was named Henry Porter.
It is also interesting that Clyde Carl (grandfather) is often referred to as C.C. Carlock
and is confused with his white contemporary Carl Cyrenus (b 1888) the son of T.T.
Carlock.
Mary Carlock married Reman Calwell (b 1876) in 1899 and had one son Clifton (b 1900).
Ann Carlock married William O Brown (b 1877) and they had two daughters Gladys and Lois.
The Carlock brothers Clyde and Emmitt married the Spears sisters - Lelia (b 1092) (my
grandmother) and Carrie (b 1896)
Roy married Mary Etta Green (b 1891) and they had seven children;
Preston, James, Mary, Ruth, Robert, William and Betty Jean.
Sidney married Mary Luella Walker (b 1887) and they had four children
Vivian (Tuttie) , William Pete - 1910, Maurice - 1922 and Harold 1925.
Harold married Callie Amanda Moore (b 1928) and they had three sons:
Ira Keith (1953-1981), Michael Wayne - 1955 and Cedric Reynold (1957-2014)
Patricia is my sister daughter of Thurston Charles Carlock who is the son on Clyde Carl
and Lelia Rohelia Spears.
Thurston Charles married Josehpine Woodbey Carlock and they had five children
Patricia, Jeanette (deceased), Thurston Charles Jr., Sylvia, and Mark.
I have had no luck in tracing Susan back before she came to Camp County or who may have
fathered her children and how she came to be called Carlock - any light you can shed would
be greatly appreciated
