AMY JONES
Amy Jones was the fourth child of Isaac and Rachel Ozburn Jones born at Lost
Creek, TN, on 13 Jun 1797. She married on 25 Dec 1816 to Reuben Carlock,
the son of Abraham and Abilgail Osborn (or Ashburn?) Carlock.
Reuben was born 13 Oct 1795, in Augusta,VA, and moved to TN about 1803. In
1827 the Carlock family moved to Dry Grove Township, McLean Co, IL. In 1844
they were appointed administrators of Isaac Jones' estate.
It was later that the town of Carlock was named for this pioneer family.
Reuben died at his farm home which was located north of Carlock, Woodford
Co, IL, on 17 Apr 1854. Amy died at age 94 on 17 Apr 1891. Both are buried
at Carlock Democrat Cemeter near Carlock. Amy was always remembered for
being a small, springly, typical pioneer woman who never lost her love for
her little clay pipe which she often smoked. Amy and Reuben had seven
children.

Hanchrist is the son of David, b. about 1679, Germany. There are two
