Hi,
I have the info you need. But most of it has been answered for you already. Joanna was not
a Carrico but Kerrick and misspelled in the register as Carrique. I remember speaking with
Richard Mudd on the phone years ago on Mudd in the Kerrick lines, he was very helpful.
Here is what I have so far. Note: That Joanna Kerrick Mudd listed Benjamin Harrison
Kerrick as her brother on her marriage register. Later James Kerrick son of Benjamin
H.Kerrick and Mary Carrico was posted in a newspaper that he was leaving Ky to move out to
Calif. and stopping in Illinois to visit cousins their. I feel he was referring to Joanna
Kerrick Mudds children or one of them? Also, early before that, Brenda Kerrick Morrison of
Ky found where 3 of Benjamin Harrisons sons were born in southern Illinois around early
1800's. I suspect it was same county the Joanna Kerrick Mudd and family had already
moved to in Randolph County IL, which happens to be the
first County formed in Illinois I am to understand. Please feel free to contact me and
anyone else doing research at
itsme61701(a)yahoo.com Take care. Mark
