Message Board Post:
I am seeking information about my fathers side of my family. All I know is that my great
grandfather was, James Allen Carr born in 1851. His parents were said to be Peter Carr
(born around 1825) and Nancy Carr, (nee Dennis) she was reportedly from South Carolina. I
was told James Allen Carr, was originally born in Jefferson County Alabama. James Allen
Carr was married three times and had children to all three wives, including twin girls to
one of the wives. My great grandmother was his third wife, her name was Maggie Reed and
she was from either South Carolina or North Carolina. They had two sons, one was my
grandfather James Felix Carr (DOB 12/17/14), another son named James William Carr. They
both eventually migrated to Pennsylvania. The family had lived in the Jasper/Dora Alabama
area. Any information would truly be appreciated in filling in the "gaps" of my
family. My email: carr365(a)yahoo.com
