Seeking parents of C.I. RAFORD, b. ca. 1868, MS, and Laura RAFORD, b. ca. 1871, MS, nieces

1875, s/o John CARLOCK, Sr., and Isabelle.
Page 629 of the book "History of the Carlock Family," by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK,
1929, quotes Judge L. C. CANON, of Tunica, MS, saying, "This family has died out, I
believe, with the exception of two ladies whose maiden names were Raiford. They live in
Memphis."
Also living in the same household in 1880 were Frances's widowed sister Laura M.
CARLOCK CHAMBLESS, and Frances's son John F. CARLOCK.
