I am looking for Robert CAR(E)Y. He was born in Elmira, Chemung, New York
in October 1822. His first wife was Eleanor BUNTO. Robert and Eleanor had
Sarah, Hannah, Benjamin, John, Elizabeth, Raymond, Wesley, and Eleanor.
Eleanor died shortly after giving birth to the baby Eleanor in December 1859.
Robert then married Olive (last name unknown). They are listed in the 1870
Chemung County, New York census. They have three children: Hattie,
Fannie, and Sarah. Olive died in 1889 and Robert died in 1902. Both are
buried in Chemung County.
Any information on this line would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Richard,
I have dates for the direct lineage of Nelson Howard Cary from 1270 John
De Karry in England to the children of nelson and Maria. I have dates and
brothers and sister of those in the dierct line. I will gladly share if you
need anything. What I need is proof that Nelson married for a second time.
His youngest daughter Ada Warren Cary did not have the same mother as the
others. Maria died in 1850 and Ada was not born untilSept. 9, 1853. I have
found an LDS record that someone had turned in and it shows Nelson Howard
Cary remarried to Julia Strout Warren in Yarmouth, Me in 1852. Have you
ever heard of this? I need some proof! Ada was the mother of my great
grandmother. Please let me know what your e-mail address is and I can send
you any information you might want. Mine is below. Thanks,
Amy West rawest(a)cyberback.com

I have been asked to post the article about Lake Carey. It was written after
the tornado.
===================================
>From the Sunday Wilkes-Barre Times Leader:
LAKE CAREY"S 'ALMOST NAMES'
story by: Jean Lacoe (Times Leader Staff Writer)
A look back - In the lare 1800s some had other ideas about what the lake
should be known as.
If past residents had their way, Lake Carey would be cleaning up from the
Lake Millkens or Lake Moscoletta tornado.
Near the turn of the century, the Wyoming County lake's name stirred debate
in local newspapers and among residents as they sought a name everyone could
agree upon.
According to the Wyoming County Historical Society's archives, the lake's
earliest known name was Barnum's Pond, after its owner, Elijah Barnum.
Barnum owned a lumber mill at the lake's outlet in 1800. Back then, the
lake was "in the midst of a wilderness, the little house near the mill being
the only one within miles of it," said the Wyoming Democrat of Tunkhannock
in an 1881 article.
After Barnum's wife died, the mill was sold to Abel Marcy. Marcy continued
the lumber business and the lake was known as Marcy's Pond, until a blind
man named Earl Carey obtained the deed.
Some accounts say Carey was a local farmer who entertained local fisherman.
He might have been, but he also owned the lake. The Wyoming County
Historical Society has a copy of the deed.
It was first known as Carey's Pond, but later changed to Lake Carey when
city people began to frequent its shores after the Montrose Railroad
connected it to Scranton. WilkesBarre and Pittston.
That's when the tourists and summer cottagers began to arrive. By 1875,
Lake Carey was known as a summer resort. In 1881, there were already 16
cottages.
Rumblings began circulating about a name change in 1881, to which the
Wyoming Democrat quickly responded.
"The public have familiarized themselves with the name 'Lake Carey' and
they are slow to adopt a new name. To speak of Lake Carey is to make
yourself understood and a desire to speak understandingly seems more than
ever prevalent."
It was suggested in 1887 that the name be changed to Lake Moscoletta, which
was supposed to be the lake's original name given by Indians in honor of an
Indian girl.
The Sept. 18, 1891, issue of The Wyoming Democrat berated the Scranton
Tribune for changing Lake Carey's name.
"By what authority, we would inquire, does the Scranton Tribune change the
name of our popular summertime resort from Lake Carey to 'Lake Millkens?'
This same game was tried a few years ago.."
The Scranton Tribune had written: "The name of Lake Carey has been changed
to Lake Millkens. The latter was the name of an Indian maiden who in the
days of long ago, dwelt on the border of the lake and each morning saw her
dusky charms reflected in the placid waters as she made her toilet. Millkens
is supposed to be a more fetching name than plain, prosaic Carey. It is a
name about which a romance can readily be conjured and no matter what other
attractions a watering place may lack, it must have at least one romance in
stock."
By 1896, were 68 summer homes at the lake, along with boardwaIks, boat
houses, piers, docks and two hotels. Wrigley's Grove was in demand
throughout the summer months for Granger's and Sunday school picnics.
The final failed name-change occurred in 1897, according to the Meshoppen
Enterprise. It said the lake would be called, "Neoscoletta," "which was its
original name having been christened by the Indians in honor of an Indian
maid."
