This is in reply to Rolidaar's June 16, 2007, posting to the RootsWeb CARLOCK Message
Board titled "Re: Samuel A. CARLOCK (b. 1763) m. CAROTHERS."
I show the following lineage for William Ervin "Willie" CARLOCK of Johnson Co.,
TX:
Hans Peter GERLOCH/GERLACH
David GERLACH/CARLOCK
Frederick CARLOCK/CARELOCK
George CARLOCK
Samuel A. CARLOCK/CARELOCK, Sr.
Samuel A. CARELOCK, Jr.
William (A. or J.) CARELOCK
William A. CARELOCK, Jr.
William Ervin "Willie" CARLOCK
Of note is that four different branches of the CARLOCK family migrated to Johnson Co., TX.
Those branches are:
Descendants of the above-mentioned William Ervin "Willie" CARLOCK (1872 - 1951).
This is a rare example of a line reverting back to an earlier spelling. I wonder if the
presence of the other CARLOCK families in the area influenced this change.
Descendants of William Hisiky "W.H./Kie" CARLOCK (1875 - 1963) (s/o John
(Charles or Clinton) CARLOCK; William Vance (or Voules) Colton/Culton CARLOCK; Jacob C.
CARLOCK, Jr.; Jacob "Jake" CARLOCK, Sr.; Hanchrist CARLOCK; David
GERLACH/CARLOCK; Hans Peter GERLOCH/GERLACH).
Descendants of John Robert CARLOCK (1835 - 1915) (s/o George Washington CARLOCK/CARELOCK;
John CARLOCK; Lemuel CARLOCK; Hanchrist CARLOCK; David GERLACH/CARLOCK; Hans Peter
GERLOCH/GERLACH).
Descendants of William Thomas "Tom" CARLOCK (1839 - 1926) (s/o George Washington
CARLOCK/CARELOCK; John CARLOCK; Lemuel CARLOCK; Hanchrist CARLOCK; David GERLACH/CARLOCK;
Hans Peter GERLOCH/GERLACH).
It appears that the first two families settled in the Cleburne area, whereas the second
two families (brothers) settled in the Joshua area. Also of note is that the author
Chester Wayne "Chuck" CARLOCK is a native of Johnson County and a great-grandson
of the above-mentioned John Robert CARLOCK.
See the GERLACH report on my home page for additional information with regard to these
families.
