Tillman Carr is out of the Braxton County, (W)VA Carrs. His parents were
John C and Ruth Ann Rolyson Carr.
John C is the s/o Andrew Carr and Sarah Young
Andrew is s/o James P Carr and Rebecca Martin Boggs
James P Carr is s/o Isaac Carr.
Isaac Carr is from England.
Tillman makes things complicated as he and several of his line moved into
the area where many of the Carrs actually belong to the German line out of
Hardy and Hampshire Co (W)VA. Although not a monopoly on the area, more of
the Carrs are from Henry (Gerig Heinrich Karr) Carr than from Isaac.
There are also a few from the James Kerr group out of Augusta Co, VA, who
sprinkle through with the name spelled CARR. Some of the Germans are in the
records as KERR too. It depended on the person making the record of the
ancestor. Many more were aware of the CARR spelling than others.
