Message Board Post:
Hi Bobby,
I was planning on mailing it to you if that is okay. I have a Epson photo scanner that
can restore damaged old photos and it couldn't scan and improve the photo. I could
send you the scanned copy but it is even worse than the zerox. I will also send you an
invite to view my tree to view my Carr info and all of Radford's clan. I may be
mistaken that the M. stands for Moses but my grandmother had passed on that it was Moses
because someone in her family said he went by Moses. I've done research with several
geneology sites and haven't had much luck with getting further back in the line. I
did run by a old message on another site that stated that Radford married Elizabeth Fowler
probably in 1831 in Gwinette County, GA. It also said that the his father may have been
named Wiley Moses Carr. This message said they had found a Wiley Carr on a census living
in Abbeyville, SC in the early 1800s. I can't verify since the person is no longer a
member of the site and I don't kno!
w how to connect with the lady who posted it. I found a census from 1850 listing Radford
and Eliza in Forsyth County GA. It listed their kids as Aney b.1832, Rhona b.1830, Henry
b.1837, William b. 1841, Moses Filo b.1845 and Radford M.G. b.1848. I found a message that
said the Carrs were changed their name from Karr to Carr. I also found that the names
Radford, Wiley and Moses were passed through multiple generations. I plan on going to
Forsyth and Gwinnett County, GA to try to hard copies of documentation for the Carr's
and Hamrick lines. I hope this helps with your research.
