Judy,
I found a tree on
Ancestry.com for Andrew Jackson Carr born in Trigg Co., Kentucky on May
11, 1816. He married Dulcena Bibb on October 23, 1834 and he died on August 20, 1875 in
Trigg Co., Ky.
It also stated that Andrew Jackson Carr also lived in Stewart Co., Tennessee at some time.
Supposedly this is where my gggrandfather William Andrew Carr was born around 1836. It
also said that it is thought that they had two sons who moved to Bowie, Montague Co., TX.
No explanation given to what happened to Dulcena.
On Feb. 20, 1837 he (Andrew Jackson) married Bathsheba Lancaster in Trigg Co., KY.
A lot of this information was imported from Broderbund WFT Vol. 3, Ed.1, Tree #0917.
I am thinking that one of the two boys that came to Bowie, TX was my gggrandfather William
Andrew Carr who was born around 1836 in Stewart Co., TN and later married Virginia
Chandler. They came to Texas around 1880 and first where located in Rockwall, TX and
later moved to Bowie, Texas where they were buried.
If you need anything else, please let me know. Although, I don't have much else to go
on. I have run into a brick wall on his parents.
Thanks so much.
Wanda(Carr)Bowerman
