My ggrandfather was John W. Carnahan who was the eldest son of Robert T. Carnahan from Van
Buren, MO. Most of the information on the internet does not list him as a child of Robert
T. Carnahan. John W. Carnahan was born near Van Buren, Nov. 17, 1875 and died on May 7,
1930 of a heart attack. Five brothers who survived him are M. T. of Ellsinore MO, Albert
of Freemont MO, Sol and Aaron of St. Louis MO and Joe of Slagle LA. His mother also
survived him. John married Sarah Lula Kirkland at Ellsinore on Nov 28, 1897 and they
moved to AR in 1907 and lived in Millvile, Pine Bluff, and Dumas. He was in the lumber
business. The information above is from a clipped obituary pasted into my
grandmother's scrapbook.
