Although I do not have my records at hand, I can tell you that these people are my ancestors---another brother, Anthony Bird Cary also migrated to Louisiana, and became my great, great grandfather. I have in the records that a Samuel Cary was captured in the Civil War, having fought in the Battle of Port Hudson, near Baton Rouge, LA. he evidently survived and lived to a ripe old age! As I get into my records, I will be able to provide more information. Hope this helps a little for now---

There is record of Samuel Cary, born Staten Island, NY on April 13, 1816 and who died in St. Mary Parish, LA on October 20, 1903. Also a RICHARD C. CARY, born Staten Island, NY, on June 10, 1835 and who died in St. Mary Parish, LA on July 22, 1885. I would be interested in any further information on these two men that is known by anyone out there...

GREAT and thank you. Glad to clear that up. From memory, in that old photo, the second or third son from the left was William Henry Cary. He married Mary Splawn and their grandaughter, as you already know, was my great grandmother, C.Ann Cary, born in Oregon Territory at Holley, Oregon 1857 and who died at Salem, Oregon, from memory that was 1941. I have movie film of her holding my cousin on her first birthday and first Christmas in Alameda CA, and might have her on movie film walking the Golden Gate bridge on opening day about March or April 1936 or 37, whatever it was...Thank you.

Oh, and ummm, so use that name in your tree if you wish to, based upon one date in a marriage record book that is a transcribed version nobody has seen. No biggie, but suggesting that since the marriage occurred before the Civil War and so many records and court houses were burned it could be something which you should seriously reconsider as validity-based evidence typically points to the factual truth over the rest of another 40 or 50 years of records... There are a great many errors in these compilation(s) of old marriage or whatver records, we all know. Its a futile argument so just use what you wish.
The BLM-GLO has Armenius Cary on the land claim and land patent signed by the US President in Oregon. I appreciate your sharing the old family photo which includes my great grandmother's father as one of the several sons of Armenius Cary, and MCVETKO had the same photo, whoever he is. The book by Mrs. Archie Toal called "the Cary Families of Virginia" which this woman out of Stockton, CA put together about 1965 included family data contributed by relatives including my grandfather, on typewritten sheets of paper. That 'book' was like a child's term paper, typed, but reproduced on a xerox machine. The Cary family photo appeared in it, but was very poor quality. I only have about ten to twelve pages of what I think is actually a 65 page or so booklet which was spiral bound and 3-hole punched.
In my opinion, The preponderance of evidence of the validity of first name of Armenius goes to Armenius Cary in the following records: several US census records in Missouri and Oregon Territory and Oregon; the old Cary family bible entry viewed and transcribed by Deanna Campbell; which was subject of a post on the message boards by she and I about ten years ago; death record entry; and a report of tombstone entry (but I did not yet view the tombstone, personally). Plenty of Cary members lived in Oregon to report on Armenius Cary as his name, the original land claim surveyor maps, surveyor's notes and notebooks included. Believe what you wish at this stage, all the records except one marriage transcription that nobody has seen seem to overrule the Ambrose name as pure error in my opinion.
