CARY, BLAIR, TATE
James H. CARY, farmer of the Twelfth District and a son of Robert and
Sarah
(BLAIR) CARY, was born August 15, 1824, near his present residence. The
father of our subject was born in Ireland in 1781, and was of
Scotch-Irish
descent. He was a weaver by occupation in his youth, and in later years
devoted his attention to the cultivation of the soil. In 1798 he left
his
native country and came to the United States, landing at Charleston in
February. He located in Chester District, S. C., where he was living at
the time of his marriage, which occurred in 1807. In 1816 he immigrated
to
Lincoln County, and the following year settled on the Fayetteville and
Pulaski road, six miles from Fayetteville, where he remained until his
death, in 1869. He was one of the early settlers of Lincoln County, and
was an industrious, hard-working man. He was the father of four
children:
Margaret, born in 1817; Isabella, born in 1819 (wife of James I TATE),
John, born in 1821 (and died March 31, 1886, leaving a widow and five
children, who now reside on the old homestead), and James H., our
subject,
who lives half a mile from the old home place with his sister Margaret,
and
both are single. They have been industrious, persevering and
economical,
and as a result own 473 acres of excellent land, and have a good home.
Mr.
CARY is a Republican in politics, and cast his first vote for Lewis CASS
in
1848. Margaret is a member of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and has
been for the past thirty-six years. In 1862 James enlisted in Company
I,
Starne's battalion, Forrest's command. He fought in the battle of
Spring
Hill, and at the end of five months returned home.
p.880-881.
