Good Evening Carnes Enthusiasts,
My name is Ellen and I am new to the Carnes List.
(Reverend?) Jacob Carnes (b 1763 SC) and his wife Mary are my maternal great great great
great grandparents. Jacob and Mary Carnes' daughter Martha Jane Carnes (b 1828 SC)
and her husband Jacob Vaughn (b 1818 GA) are my maternal great great great grandparents.
Jacob Vaughn and Martha Jane's daughter Margaret Vaughn is my maternal great great
grandmother.
I have a number of questions:
(1) I do not know Jacob Carnes wife's name. Is she by any chance Mary Lewis?
(2) A woman by the name of Tish / Trish Carnes was said to be "the daughter of Jacob
Carnes and Mary_______". The only children of Jacob and Mary Carnes (that I know
of) are Eli (b 1803); Samual; Catherine (Carnes) Vaughn (d 1842); Rebecca (Carnes) Dennis;
Hannah (Carnes) Mauley; Sarah / Sallie (Carnes) Humphrey (d 1827 SC); Martha Jane (Carnes)
Vaughn (b 1828 SC); and Mary (Carnes) Mauley. Is Tish / Trish Carnes a sister / daughter
in this family? Tish / Trish Carnes was born in about 1794 and died after 1833. She
married Davis Starling Vaughan in 1818.
(3) In the above-mentioned Jacob Carnes lineage, is anyone aware of any Native American
lineage...possibly Choctaw?
(4) Who were Jacob Carnes' parents?
Thank you, everyone, for your time and consideration. Your help would be most
appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ellen
