Hi,
I am from the Duncan Carmichael/Charity Witt line as well, through son
Lemuel. My database is also a combination of what I have received from
other members of these two families as well as from my Palmer family
(Carmichael to Palmer). I have Leminah "Mina" Carnichael, born bet
1779/1783 in Caswell Co., NC, died 1864 in Stokes Co. NC. I show her
married on 9 Nov 1799 Caswell Co., NC to Thomas Climer. Is this the same
Leminah someone was looking for?

Let me give you a little information that I know personally to be true and
you can decide where or if it fits with info you have.My paternal
grandmother was Nancy Ellen Carmichael.
She was the daughter of Barzilla Alexander Carmichael (no Jr
on his name)and Millicent Marshall. She had 10 brothers and
sisters whose names I have. Some were born in NC and the last five were born
in KY. Barzilla Alexander's father was
also a Barzilla, sometimes written as Barzillai and some re-
searchers have added a middle name as Graves.I don't know
where the Graves came from.This Barzilla was married to Mary
(Polly) Westmoreland. They had seven children, Mabel, Elizabeth,
Edward(Ned), Martha Witt(Patsy), Mary W.(Pop),
John Lewis and Barzilla Alexander. His second wife was
Minerva(Mary) Bowles. They had four children, Samantha Ellen,Lilla M.,
Azariah Gray and John Philip The 1850
Census shows Barzilly Carmichael and wife Mary, but also
shows Barzilla Alexander and Millicent living with them
at this time. I do have Marriage Bonds for both of these
couples. The parents of Barzillai were Duncan Carmichael
Jr. and Charity Witt. Their children are listed as John,
Lemina(Mina), William, Sarah, Mary, Lemuel, Barzillai,
Solomon and Richard. The 1800 Census lists Duncan Carmichael, but does not
list individual names of others
in the household. At that time they were only listed by
number. I do not have a marriage bond for Duncan and Charity, but I do have
a Certificate to Obtain a Marriage
License for their son John and they are listed as his parents. As I said
earlier, some of this I know as fact
and the rest came from Carmichael or Witt descendants who
researched much more than I. Let me know if any of this
fits your family.
