Seeking information about David CURLOCK, b. 1839, Bowling Green, KY, and his ancestry.
Descendants found in Jefferson Co., IL. One source says David m#1. Rebecca, m#2 Elizabeth
"Bets" BOOK, and m#3. Elizabeth Turman HICKS, and that David had the following
children by his second wife: William R. BOOK, Mary Malissa BOOK, John Henry CURLOCK,
Melvina CURLOCK, and Stephen A. Douglas CURLOCK.
Note that both the families of George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, who migrated to
Fayette Co., IL, and John CARLOCK, b. 1782, southwestern VA (s/o Lemuel, Hanchrist, David
GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans GERLACH) were also in the Bowling Green, KY, area, and that many of
the same names can be found amongst these lines. The ancestry of George W.
CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, has not yet been positively identified, but seems most
likely somehow connected to Frederick CARLOCK (s/o David GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans GERLACH).
The spelling "CEARLOCK" (pronounced like "Carelock") can be found
amongst both the descendants of George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, and John
CARLOCK, b. 1782, southwestern VA.
