Message Board Post:
Mary Ann Carr and Richard Curtis Campbell are my great-great grandparents, but I can find
no documentation on them other than being listed in family trees and rumored through the
family grapevine :). I finally am a paid member to
ancestry.com in hopes that I can get
copies of marriage licenses, death certificates, etc...something more concrete than
someone saying this is how it was.
I was told and sent emails with family info several years ago, that Mary Ann Carr was born
in May 1847 in Barren County, KY to John and Mahala Carr. The 1910 Census of Wise County
Texas shows she was living with her son Jim and his family. My father had always been
told she died during the trek to Texas; everyone's family tree info says she died in
Putnam County TN. I have to find a death certificate for either place.
If you have any info, especially recorded docs or newspaper articles, I would really
appreciate it if you could share with me. Thanks in advance.
