Since discussion is being held concerning Carnes originating in NJ, will
once again post my brickwall: My ggggrandfather, Richard Carnes, b 1774
NJ, living in Franklin Co GA by 1800 and until his death, farmer, married
to Delphia b in VA. Also apparently had brothers living in Franklin Co GA
in early 1800's, Wells and Holloway and maybe a John. Family lore has it
that Richard had Indian blood.
