Do You have any more specific information about the
CARR family that was in Wells County in 1862.
My Meeks Line settled in Wells County, In in 1850.
I find them first in Orange County, VA, (later named
Berkeley Co. WV). They migrated with the Cherry family.
They moved to Pittsburgh, where the Airport now stands.
The Indians ran them off. From there they went to
Mount Pleasant PA. They then moved to Wayne County, Ohio
and then from there to Fairfield County, (Hooker) Ohio.
Jeremiah Meeks was married to Rachel Carr.
Their Son George Meeks moved to Wells County, Indiana
and purchased land on Dec.25, 1850. I am attempting to
find out information about James Carr. I believe that he was
Rachel Carr's father. I am looking for any info on this line!!!!
Thanks,
Dan Meeks
