Samuel B. Carmack, b NC, is found on the 1840 Edgecombe Co., NC Census in
Dist 6, page 23, on Census film M704 Roll # 360. In his household is listed
one (1) male 20 and under 30 yrs of age, one (1) male 30 and under 40 yrs of
age and one (1) female 20 and under 30 yrs of age. I found him about 8
lines above his Mother-in-law, Sally Davis, head of her household, who was
widowed, Dec 31, 1839.
After the 1840 census, this Carmack family moves to Coffee County, TN.,
as well as some of the Davis family and are on the Coffee Co., 1850 census.
My Carmack family is found on the Hardeman Co, TN 1860 census and Gibson
Co., TN on the 1870 Census. Samuel B. and wife, Mary G., are not found on
a census after 1870. Assume that they died around Gibson co., TN.
After 1870, MY direct ancestor, William Franklin Carmack, 6th child of 8
born to Samuel B. and Sarah "Sally" Green Carmack, is found in Crockett Co.,
TN on the 1880 census. Three of his siblings move on to White County AR. and
are found there on the 1880 census. We have a pretty good handle on the
descendants of Samuel B. after 1840 but have yet to find his ancestors.
William Franklin Carmack moved to Lauderdale Co., TN and raised his
family there. Many descendants of this family reside in that area today.
There are descendants of his siblings still living in the AR, Little Rock
area today.
We would love to find parents for our Samuel B. Carmack, b abt 1808 in
NC.
