I thought of this when I saw the posting a while back. Nathan JACKSON
mentioned two sons in his will, Thomas M and William A, that I've never
been able to locate. There is a "T M JACKSON" in 1860 Spalding Co who
moves to Pike Co for the 1870 and 1880 censuses. In 1870 he also shows up
as "T M" and in 1880 he has been transcribed as "Turner M". I have a
real hard time reading the census entry as "Turner", but I can't get
"Thomas" out of it either. But still have a sneaky suspician that this is
my guy.
In the 1860 Carroll Co census there is a Thomas JACKSON age 55, wife
Martha. Two entries away is a Wm J CARPENTER age 25, wife Mary. Also in
this CARPENTER household is an Amanda CRUZ(??) age 10.

I was contacted by Cindy, the ggg grandaughter of Thomas JACKSON b. 1806 who lived in
Carroll Co GA. She said that Thomas was executor of THOMAS M. CARPENTER's estate.
Thomas M. Carpenter was son of Thomas Carpenter and the grandson of Abigail JORDAN who
married 1st an unknown Carpenter and 2nd Thomas MOFFETT. Thomas M. Carpenter was born in
GA, lived years in Randolph Co AL and died 1857 in Carroll Co GA where he owned land. Tax
records show Thomas Jackson as admin.
We tried to find a connection and after hours of wasted time, I decided to look at Steve
Martonak's website again. Here is what I found there:
Abigail (Jordan-Carpenter) and Thomas MOFFETT had a daughter Margaret "Peggy"
Mofatt who married NATHAN JACKSON abt 1810. She had a son named THOMAS M. JACKSON born
circa 1806 which matches with Cindy's info.
"If" this is the same Thomas Jackson, then he would be a 1st cousin of Thomas
M. Carpenter and possibly a namesake. Making it look like this:
1. Abigail Jordan
+a) Mr Carpenter
2. Thomas Carpenter
3. Thomas M. Carpenter
+b) Thomas Moffatt
2. Margaret Peggy Moffatt
+Nathan Jackson
3. Thomas M. Jackson
Does anyone have info on any of these families?
