Wow! This is my first time to look at this site, search the surname board and yours is the
one on top! My dad's family is from Overton County (Carr cemetary nearby in Pinehurst)
and his ancestors are everyone you just mentioned above.
My sister and I have census records of this family -- particularly Fanny Carr back into
the 1800s. (No census before 1810 as TN was a territory until 1806). She's apparently
our ggg grandmother. William is my gg grandfather (I think - may have the wrong number of
gg's)
We got the census records from the Mormon Church's Family Research Center in Bethesda,
MD (which is open for use by non-mormons).
I don't know all the particulars, but will connect with my sister to fill me in. We
had information taking us back to Shenandoah from Tennessee (which is amazing, since now I
live in VA, but my family was in NC/TN for years). And we had info that this Carr from
Shenandoah was from Pennsylvanis and that's where our trail ends. Your dates connect
to our dots, but I'll have to get more info for you. Do I post here or send you an
email?
I see your post is pretty old, but hope you still have this email.
