Ronald, Jacob W. moved to Palmer Lake about 1872. His father was Benjamin Lodge Carnahan
1797-1866, bn Ky, to Westmoreland Co PA to Muskingum Co Oh to Ling County and then to
Jasper County IA about 1850 and settled around the Galesburg IA area. Buried at Hewitt
cemetery with his wife and some of the family, but Jacob moved to Palmer Lake when the
rest of the family moved to Galesburg Ia. I live at Reasnor IA 50232 3 miles from Hewitt
Cemetery and the graves are there. I can not make out all the names, but do see
Benjamin's and Elizabeth's. My counsin and I have not been able to go further
back than Benjamin, but are working on it. If you have any details, kindly let me know.
I am a little new at this genealogy thing. Shirley Carnahan Viney. Benjamin is my great,
great, great grandfather.
