Good Morning Everyone,
Need some help.
John Carnahan - son of Hugh Carnahan and Mary
b. abt 1768 - d. 23 Sept 1838 in Washington Co., Arkansas.
md Jane Billingsley on 24 Nov 1788 in Guilford Co., NC
children that I know of:
Ann - 1791
Martha (Patsy) - 1792
James - 1794
Samuel - 1796
Benjamin J. - 1798
Adam - 1801
Jophena - 1803
John Carnahan's will is very interesting. He gives everything he had to
Gifford Pyeate provided that Gifford supports John and his wife (this would
be his second wife Polly Pyeate) for the rest of their lives. And if gifford
Pyeate fails to fulfill this agreement then everything goes to his wife to
dispose of as she wishes with one request. His wife is to pay $1.00 to sons
Samuel and Benjamin, daughters Ann, Patsey, and Josephena and grandchildren
John Carnahan, Robert D. Carnahan, and Matilda Jane Carnahan.
Question -- These grandchildren - John, Robert D., and Matilda Jane. Whose
children are they? I believe that Robert D. is Robert Daniel who was born
abt 1823 in Arkansas and was killed in the Civil War in 1865.
Would really appreaciate any help in matching up these folks - Thanks - Emma
