Dave, as I mentioned earlier in this thread, Ambrose Cary and Armenius Cary are the same
person. The only place "Ambrose" shows up is in Marriage Book A of Lafayette
County, Missouri. I am certain that Ambrose and Armenius are identical because the date in
the Lafayette County marriage book is the same as Armenius gave in his Donation Land
claim. The Carys are documented in Lafayette County by land records at the proper time. I
got the Lafayette County date from a transcription of the marriage book made by Nadine
Hodges and Mrs. Howard Woodruff in their series on Missouri pioneers (exact cite not right
at hand, sorry; I will post it when I come across it). I suspect that the photo referred
to by mcvetko is probably the same one that I sent you in 2007.
