Message Board Post:
I'm looking for information on the family of John L. Carper. He was born in 1834 in
Virginia. The earliest census record I can find for him is 1850, where he is 16 and living
with the Walker family in Fincastle, Botetourt Co. VA.
He later moved to Washington County, TN and later St. Louis, MO. He married twice and had
a bunch of children and died in 1907 (all dates according to family bible, no records have
been found). I've found numerous family trees for the Carpers in VA in the late 17,
early 1800s, but no mention of John. Looking for anything! Parents! Siblings! Help!
