The data I have shows the wife of your John Thomas as Mary Magalene Anne
(Polly) Anderson(?). John Thomas is the brother of my 3GGrandfather Peter, b
180?, NC. I have photos of John and Mary's tombstones in New Hope Primitive
Baptist Church in Villa Rica, Carroll County, GA. Hers says Mary M. Anne
(Polly) Carnes 1790-1869. I also show John being born in Granville County,
NC, and both of them dying in Winston, Douglas County, GA.
My Peter is buried in the old Van Wert Church Cemetery near/in Rockmart in
Polk County, GA, as is his wife Elizabeth and some of their children.
I'm pretty sure I got her last name from Dr. James Donald Carnes.
I hope this helps.
I'll be glad to share anything else I may have, just let me know.
I'm interested in anything you may have on the ancestry of John and your
sources. I show his father to be John Joseph (from several sources), but
have not confirmed it myself yet.

John Thomas Carnes, born 1787 in North Carolina, was the son of Joseph
Carnes and Comfort Ann Cash. John married Mary Ann Magdalene???? They
lived in Carroll County, Georgia. Does anyone know Mary's full name? Was
her last name Magdalene or is this just a middle name? Thanks for any
help.
