Trying to find information on the children of Andrew Kimmons and Mary Carothers, who were
married in Cabarrus County, NC in 1802. I have seen Mary listed as the daughter of Andrew
Carothers and Margaret Neely who m. in 1765 in Pennsylvania.
I have seen a notation that children of this marriage were John and Elias W. Kimmons, but
wonder about more, especially the daughters. I am trying to find a Mary Nancy Kimmons who
was b. Dec 11 1812. Another notation said that there were two half siblings to John and
Elias, namely Harry and Bert, so I am assuming that Andrew remarried after Mary
Carothers' death? An Andrew Kimmons and Nancy Beaty were married in 1817 in
Mecklenburg County, NC which borders Cabarrus County.
I have Andrew in Cabarrus County in 1820 as follows, not sure if the wife would then be
Mary or Nancy (assuming the Andrews above are the same) :
1820 Cabarrus County, NC census p. 145
Andrew Kimmons 2 m <10
1 m 10-15
1 m 26-44 (b. 1776-1795)
1 f <10
1 f 10-15
1 f 16-25
1 f 26-44
1 in agriculture no slaves
They are not in the 1830 census for Cabarrus--did they go west as many families from the
area did?
Any leads would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Karen Dutton
