Notes


18542. Harvey Henson Carpenter

Harvey Henson (18) Carpenter was born around 1840 and married Mary  Jane
McCort 20 December 1860 in Braxton County. Mary Jane was born circa 1840,
daughter of Andrew and Jane (maiden name undiscovered) McCort.

Hanson Carpenter in the 1870 Webster County census is identified as Harvey
Carpenter in the 1880 Webster enumeration by comparing his wife and children.
The  only other children of John S. and Sydney (Cowger) Carpenter for whom
information  has been found are Emeline who married James McCourt, Cain who
married Corella McCourt and Love who married Luverna (Maiden Name Unknown).
(Taken from the Mowrey book)

and Sydney.

James J. McCort is the question.  It may be strange but did the younger one

died age 7 days on 12 Jul 1894. info subm. by father Flyod Tanner.

Children of Jesse Tanner Jr., of Jesse Tanner Sr., of Samuel Tanner/Sudna
Elizabeth (16) Carpenter.  (This is taken from page 96 of the Tanner book.  It
appears that there is confusion in the families of Jesse "Buffalo" and Jessie
"Ike" Tanner and their children, as well as who they married.  In entering this
information I, John Proctor, am unable to determine which is accurate, so am
going by the consistancy of the Mowrey Book, even though it may be inaccurate.
All of the children given in the orginal record for this family are  shown  in
the Mowrey book, however there are 3 additional children in the orginal record,
Jesse, Henry and Rebecca Tanner, none of these children are shown in the Mowrey
book,  however I am leaving them in the family.
Jesse Tanner Jr. was born in February of 1825, died 1907 and married  Sarah
Jane Greathouse 4 November 1845.


18556. Mary Tanner

This marriage continues the confusion between ""Buffalo" Tanner (RIN 39221)
and "Ike" Tanner  (RIN 28455)  The orginal record had Mary in the family of
Buffalo, but the Mowrey book had her in the "Ike" family.  I have continued to
follow the Mowrey book and changed Mary to that family.  The reference is
found on page 98 of the Mowrey book.  Then under presure I had to switch her
back.

Mary Tanner was born about 1826 and married Isaac Starcher 10 June 1846.
Children of Mary Tanner, of Jesse Tanner Sr., of Samuel Tanner/Sudna
Carpenter (16).

Starcher, d/o Jacob & Nancy Booker. William was a Confederate
soldier during the Civil War.  He served in Co. G. 60th Va. Inf. CSA.

This marriage continues the confusion between ""Buffalo" Tanner (RIN 39221)
and "Ike" Tanner  (RIN 28455)  The orginal record had William in the family of
Buffalo, but the Mowrey book had him in the "Ike" family.  I have continued to
follow the Mowrey book and changed William to that family.  The reference is
found on page 98 of the Mowrey book.  Then under presure I had to switch him
back.
