John (18) Carpenter was born about 1827, married Malinda Tanner 29
February 1844 in Jackson County and resided in Gilmer County in 1850.
Here is another situation with an individual having two spouses named the John
Carpenter but who have different parents. This Mary Malinda with the same
parents but listed as Mary, in one marriage, married John Carpenter.
Which one is the correct spouse is not known.
One of the Marys may have had for a father one of the two Jesse Tanners in the
file.

Nathaniel "Doc" Parsons 12 July 1874. He was born 30 December 1853, son of

Alfred Carpenter (18). There is no explination why this child with a different

being in the family of Alfred, and her last name is spelled Kee.
