This is in reply to Gwena ZIKE's (dzk217(a)consolidated.net) Apr. 14, 2004, posting to
the HARRIS-HUNTERS-L(a)rootsweb.com list titled "Harris' Brunswick county VA,
Rutherford & Burke counties in NC, and Fayette county IL."
I do not find information in my database at this time about either your
gr-gr.-grandmother, Della Filora CARLOCK, or your gr.-gr.-grandfather Charles E. HICKS,
but would be very much interested in any additional information that you may wish to share
with regard to them or their descendants. Do you have any additional information about
Della Filora CARLOCK's ancestry so that we can connect her to the rest of the
CARLOCK/CEARLOCK family tree?
It appears that, through my gr.-gr.-grandparents, Joseph Edward "Edward/Ed"
CEARLOCK (1870 - 1935) and his wife Mary Elizabeth HICKS (1870 - 1937), I am related to
you in several different ways.
My line from Ed and Mary is as follows:
Joseph Edward CEARLOCK and Mary Elizabeth HICKS
Claude Abner CEARLOCK
Voris Carney CEARLOCK
Rex Duane "Duane" CEARLOCK
Susan Elaine "Sue" CEARLOCK
First, I am twice descended from Isaac HARRIS whom you mention. My two HARRIS lines to Ed
and Mary are as follow:
Isaac HARRIS
Wooten HARRIS
William B. HARRIS
Frances Jane HARRIS
Elilia B. "Emily" SEARS
Mary Elizabeth HICKS who m. Joseph Edward CEARLOCK
Isaac HARRIS
Zachariah HARRIS
Lucinda HARRIS
Thursa "Thersey" RHODES
James Robert "Robert" CEARLOCK
Joseph Edward CEARLOCK who m. Mary Elizabeth HICKS
Second, my HICKS line to Mary Elizabeth HICKS is as follows:
Robert HICKS
Thomas HICKS
Daniel HICKS
William HICKS
Jacob HICKS
Lewis HICKS
Henry HICKS
Mary Elizabeth HICKS who m. Joseph Edward CEARLOCK
Third, my CARLOCK/CEARLOCK line from George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK, b. ca. 1779, NC, to the
above-mentioned Joseph Edward CEARLOCK is as follows. I believe, but do not yet have
proof, that George was s/o David CARLOCK, Frederick CARLOCK, David GERLACH/CARLOCK, Hans
GERLACH, as shown in the following report which appears on my home page:
http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/t/i/l/Susan-E-Tilleman/GENE18-...
George W. CARLOCK/CEARLOCK
Abraham CARLOCK/CARELOCK
John Henry CARLOCK/CEARLOCK
James Robert "Robert" CEARLOCK
Joseph Edward "Edward/Ed" CEARLOCK who m. Mary Elizabeth HICKS
Additional information about my ancestry can be found in the following report which
appears on my home page:

They had several children one of which
was my g-grandfather William Whitfield Garland.
The following is my second
connection to the Harris line, it is not as complete as I don't have dates
as of yet.
Catherine Carolina (Catie) married James Thomas Hicks
Alfred R. Hicks married Elizabeth Davis
Jasper Marion Hicks married Sarah Caroline Herrin
Charles E. Hicks married Della Filora Carlock and their daughter
Florence Cecale Hicks was my g-grandmother and she married William Whitfield
Garland the son of Sarah Ellen Scribner and Anthony Garland.
Please forgive any errors this was typed with the help of my 2 young children.
Does anyone
have any of the above listed in their lines? We were told that we were
of Native American descent and am curious if other Harris' were told the
same and if there is any merit to it. I was told this by my family and
my distant cousin who I've never met was told the same as was my half unce
whom I just met this year. (Gotta love the internet)
Thank you for reading my book.
Gwena Zike.
