Does anyone recognize this family ?
They may have returned to SC/NC or gone to KY, TX, AK, MS anywhere !
James Carrington and family were in Roane Co, TN from the 1830 census until
after the taking of the 1850 census. He is in court records on 2 occasions
and pays taxes on 1838 and the 1840 lists. His 2 oldest children marry in
Roane Co. After the 1850 census, his oldest married daughter moves to
Humphreys Co, TN and his oldest son moves to Decatur Co, TN. The 1850 census
says that both James and his wife Elizabeth were born in SC , but his son's
1870 census gives the place of birth for his father as NC and for his mother
as TN.
James and Elizabeth had a large family, but I have not been able to locate
them after 1850. Perhaps someone on the list has seen this family.
