CARR FAMILY RECORDS—FIRST GENERATION.<br />

EXPLANATIONS.<br />

The coluniii of figures on the left hand side of the page denotes<br />

the niunber of each individual from one up to the highest<br />

number, so each person has a distinct and individual number,<br />

and l)^ this plan anyone can trace his l)ranch of the fami-<br />

ly forward or backward at j^leasure. The number attached to<br />

a child in one generation, is placed in parenthesis after his<br />

name in the next generation, and so on down to the latest generation.<br />

To trace J)ackward, reverse the order, and find the<br />

numl)er in the left hand cohnnn which agrees with the number<br />

after the same name in the next higher generation. When<br />

there is a cross X sign bet\veen the number column and the<br />

nundier of children in a given famil\', it denotes that the person<br />

has descendants, and is carried on to the next generation.<br />

Names having no sign attached, signify that they either died<br />

lived and died unmarried, or there is no means to trace<br />

young,<br />

them ain' farther. Thus, 150x1, John Carr, woidd be [olin<br />

Carr, (loO) in the next generation.<br />

The index in the back part of the l)ook gives the male and<br />

female names of all the Carrs who have married and liad fam-<br />

ilies, and those Avliere an^' considerable mention is made of<br />

them; also the names of all those who have married into the<br />

Carr familv.
