Jerald,
I agree with Judy, the marriage information from Dick Alloway about the
John Carmack in Craven Co, NC is correct. However, the John Carmack in
Craven Co, NC. is a different John than the one in Bledsoe Co TN who's
parents were Cornelius Carmack & Margery Jane Evans. These two Johns
have been confused as well as the Jesse Carmack (also of Craven Co) with
Jesse "Ann" Carmack (no proof on the name ANN, I throw it in since
people know immediately who this one is). Fortunately the Jesse's show
up in different states in the same Census year.

Jerald,
I think most of the information is correct with the exception that this
is not the John Carmack that was the son of Cornelius and Margery.
Their son John was the one born in 1773 either in Frederick Co., MD or
what became Washington Co., Virginia. Since that was about the time
Cornelius and Margery moved to Virginia, it's impossible to say in which
state he was born. He remained in Virginia, leaving there some time
before 1805 when his daughter Sarah was born in Tennessee. He settled
in on the Cumberland Plateau in Bledsoe County, Tennessee.

Someone was enquiring about the wife of John.
I have John b. abt. 1773, in Frederick Co., MD, m. Mary Daugherty
January 31,
1789, in Craven Co., NC
Source of marrriage: FGS's from Dick Alloway, 521 Tall Oaks Dr., Tilson,
NY
12486, CD 004, November, 1994 Edition, Craven Co., NC Marriages and from
Ancestry.Com which states: Bond date: 31 January, 1789. Record #01 051.
Bondsman Elisha X Beasle. Witness: S. Chaphan. Bond #000025131.
Mr Alloway stated that John was married twice, 1st wife not named, had 7
children, three died in infancy. ref. DAR Library, Washington, D.C. John
Carmack , W-3772, applied from Guiford Co., NC, age 74. Enlisted at
Hillsboro, Orange Co., NC 1781.
If this is correct John's DOB has to be wrong.
I have parents of John as Cornelius Carmack and Margary Jane Evans.
Not sure how accurate this info is. Can anyone confirm?
