Hi Patrick,
It seems there are several cousins on this list who are descendants of Levi Carmack
(1791). At one time, the list was busy with inquiries and responses. I don't have a
lot of information about the Carmacks, but am willing to share what I do have. I have not
see the Carmack book. When, and who published the book?
My Carmack line came from southwest VA, TN, and KY. From these states, they are
scattered to the winds.
FYI, and others who may be interested: In April 1999, we had a Carmack Cousins reunion
at Boone Tavern in Berea, KY. These cousins were descendants of Levi and Elizabeth
Carmack. There were about 60 in attendance and they came from eight states.
(Ky/TN/CA/MD/IN/SC/GA/OH) I brought a large chart showing a family tree. Each of 13 limbs
represented a child of Levi Carmack. Attached to the limbs were red apples with names of
cousins in attendance, showing the numbers representing each of those 13 children.
If it had not been for internet access, I would never have known I had so many Carmack
cousins. I met Dale Carmack there, and Tony/his sister/Agnes Jones/Gail Carmack-one of
your best researchers, and many others. I got to meet one of my favorite cousins at
Berea, Lisa Gatz (CA). (Lisa, I hope you are reading this.) It is wonderful to be able to
associate a face with the correspondence submitted on the Carmack list. I'll start
the holiday season by saying "Thanks folks!" I have acquired a great deal of
information on my ancestors through this list.

include that information other then the Children.
