This is in reply to J. F. BAYLESS's (JCCARLOCK(a)JUNO.COM and jbayl(a)catt.com) Nov. 11,
2003, posting to the Ancestry CARLOCK Message Board titled "Re: Carlock."
Joseph Benjamin Lafayette CARLOCK appears on page 441 of the book "History of the
Carlock Family," by Marion Pomeroy CARLOCK, 1929. For further information, see the
following site:

Within that report I have Joseph Benjamin Lafayette CARLOCK's lineage as follows:
Hans GERLACH
David GERLACH/CARLOCK
Hanchrist CARLOCK
Lemuel CARLOCK
possibly Joseph CARLOCK
Joseph Taylor CARLOCK
George Washington CARLOCK
Joseph Benjamin Lafayette CARLOCK
I have included the word "possibly" before Joseph CARLOCK's name because I
question whether or not Joseph was indeed the son of Lemuel CARLOCK as listed on pages 33
and 437 of the above-mentioned book. There was a Joseph CARLOCK found in Campbell Co.,
TN, who roughly fits the description of this Joseph. I believe that the Joseph found in
Campbell Co., TN, may have instead been the son of Henry CARLOCK/CARELOCK/CURLOCK/KERLOCK
who migrated from Rutherford Co., NC, to Campbell Co., TN. Through process of
elimination, as well as an Aug. 4, 1787, Rutherford Co., NC, court record titled
"Kerlock & the Landess vs. Joseph Rogers," I believe that Henry was probably
a son of Frederick CARLOCK of Mecklenburg Co., NC, brother of the above-mentioned
Hanchrist CARLOCK, who was not listed among Frederick's children on page 437 of the
above-mentioned book. Further evidence is needed to identify the father of Joseph.
