This is in reply to the following posting from Joyce G. REECE
(jgreece(a)earthlink.net) which appeared on the CARLOCK list earlier today.
A search of my CARLOCK database does not bring up the name Alexander GASTON.
However, I would be very much interested in a complete copy of the court
minutes you mention as I have only sketchy information about Henry CARLOCK
and his family. Here is the information I have so far:
1. HENRY CARLOCK/CARELOCK/CURLOCK/KERLOCK (probable s/o FREDERICK CORNELIUS
CARLOCK/CARELOCK, DAVID GERLACH/CARLOCK, HANS GERLACH) died Aft. 1804 in
possibly Campbell Co., TN. He married SARAH "SALLY".
Mecklenburg Co., NC, court minutes, Aug. 4, 1787, "Kerlock & the Landess vs.
Joseph Rogers", say that Henry KERLOCK was awarded money "for the orphans of
Christopher Landess, deceased, viz Jacob, Felix and Elizabeth". Furthermore,
the 1790 federal census for Morgan District, Rutherford Co., NC, shows a
listing for a Henry CURLOCK, with 3 free white males under 16, and 5 free
white females. Assuming that 2 of the males are Jacob and Felix LANDESS, 1
of the females was his wife, and 1 was Elizabeth LANDESS, this leaves 1
additional male under age 16 and 3 additional females living in the
household.
I believe that both this Henry CURLOCK/KERLOCK and the David CARLOCK who was
in Mecklenburg Co., NC, in 1803, and Warren Co., KY, in 1810, are both
possible fathers of George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC. George m.
Rachel LANDERS, granddaughter of the above-mentioned Christopher LANDESS.
Further research is needed to determine if Henry or his wife was somehow
biologically related to Christopher LANDESS or his wife. The surnames of
both of the wives are unknown to this compiler at this time.
Henry probably migrated to the Powell River Valley of Campbell Co., TN. The
first deed recorded in Campbell Co., TN, was from a Thomas CAMPBELL to a
Henry CARLOCK for 500 acres. Households for both a Joseph and a James
CARLOCK appear in the 1830 census for Campbell Co., TN. Also, a Joseph
CARLOCK was elected both Collector of Public Revenue and Sherriff, Dec. 12,
1826, Campbell Co., TN. Furthermore, the Barbara CARLOCK, d/o Henry and
Sally CARLOCK, b. 31 Jan. 1805, in the neighboring county of Claiborne Co.,
TN, was probably this Henry's daughter.
If Joseph was Henry's son, this could strengthen the argument for the
above-mentioned David CARLOCK being the father of George W. CARLOCK, b. ca.
1779, NC, instead of Henry. However, there is also a Joseph CARLOCK (s/o
Lemuel, Hanchrist, David, according to Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK's book) who
roughly fits the description of this Joseph. Furthermore, according to the
book "History of the Carlock Family", by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK, 1929,
Joseph's father Lemuel also had a son named John who migrated to Allen Co.,
KY, and had descendants who, like the above-mentioned George W.
CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, lived in both Warren Co., KY, and Fayette
Co., IL. Some of John's descendants, found in Texas and Oklahoma, also used
the spelling "CEARLOCK" for their surname. It is also possible that Marion
Pomeroy CARLOCK's book may contain errors regarding the relationships
between Lemuel, Joseph, and John. Additional research in NC, TN, and KY
records is needed with regard to all of the above-mentioned individuals.

I believe the CARLOCKs who were in McMinn Co., TN, were a different branch
of this CARLOCK family, descendants of Hanchrist CARLOCK, brother to
Frederick CARLOCK, probable father of Henry CARLOCK. Any additional
information about this family would be greatly appreciated.
