    Notes:

    John Carney was born in North Carolina around 1748-1750, as determined from censuses of him and his children. K. Johnson has birth as 15 Apr 1748. Most of his children were also born in North Carolina, but some (if not several), as noted on the Census rolls including sons William, Elijah and Vincent, and daughter Lucy - may have been born in east North Carolina/Tennessee. Martha "Patsy" Carney the last daughter was born about the time the family may have came up through the Natchez Trace in 1782/83 and settled in White's Creek, Davidson County, North Carolina (later Tennessee), which had just formed as a county in 1783. At that time, over 80% of western North Carolina was still Indian Lands which surrounded Davidson County isolated in the middle of this semi-hostile territory with only 200 able bodied men in all settlements. Until the Indian wars ended in 1795, only a trickle of settlers entered. It is important to note, that Tennessee was not formed until 1790 as it was entirely organized and ceded from western North Carolina. It is possible, some of the family children did not move far at all from their birth places and the borders were what moved.

    It is suspected John Carney was related to William and Arthur Carney, who were Indian Traders found trading in these areas from 1783 onwards, in towns such as St. Augustine, Pensacola, Mobile, Chickasaw Bluffs, New Orleans Fernandina, Bon Secour, etc. Other traders of note were Turner Brashear, Lachlan and John McGillivray, John Turnbull, and others. Turnbull has a close family relationship with the Carneys as seem to be locally the Brashears (Brassiers) and the Leflore's

    DNA testing of several Carney Family volunteers has confirmed the Mississippi John Carney (B: 1775) line is related through an exact match with 46 markers to the Tennessee John Carney (B: 1748) line. Despite other researchers speculation, we cannot merge Iklannabee into John Carney (B: 1748) who is believed to be his half-brother. Reasons: (1) This John Carney has children with sufficient documentation proving that they were born and partially raised in the North Carolina and then arrived in Tennessee territory in 1783 - Iklannabee birthdate firmed up about 1758 and would have been father at 12. (2) Iklannabee was Indian in appearance, and ? breeds were not then allowed to own land in Tennessee/North Carolina or serve as juror. (3) It is shown in several Censuses that John and his children were never mentioned to be anything other than white.

    The plausible conclusion as evidenced by the DNA testing and rolls, censuses, land deeds, etc is that Iklannabee of Mississippi and John Carney (B: 1748) of Tennessee have the same father, believed to be the same Indian Trader who plied his wares in Indian Territory. The Choctaw Indian Territory extended from Mississippi to eastern Alabama and up the Natchez Trace into Tennessee.

    The first mention of John Carney in official records is in 1787, four years after arrival confirmed when he was a juror in a trial. Reference: Book - Davidson County, Tennessee County Court Minutes 1783 - 1792 by: Carol Wells page 31 - April 1785 Court Session - "John Boyd vs Ja. Rains. Trespass. Assault & Battery (page 127) Jury: John Cox, C. Ruddle, William Crutcher, John Buchanan, Jn. Tucker, Moses Larracy, Sam' Martin, Samuel Desson, JOHN KARNEY, Wm. Gower, Mark Nobles, Ed Hogan, Ed Hickman. Wit. Francis Armstrong, Wit. Wm. Crutcher. Def' came to plaintiff house picked up a chair, knocked plaintiff down, bit his thumb.

    The Carney men, John, William and Elijah are later mentioned on the 1798 Sumner County Tax Roll. Sumner County was formed from the right (east) portion of Davidson County. A year later, they are also mentioned again in a road improvement filed in Davidson County, Tennessee Court Minutes July 1799 page 20 Isaac Earthman to oversee the Road beginning at the foot of The ridge thence to the head of Long Creek, down said creek about one mile to the tree marked with a large O with all lands above Dry Fork East & West of said Creek To wit: William Smith, JOHN CARNEY, WILLIAM CARNEY, ELIJAH CARNEY...and all taxables in sd bounds.

    Elijah CARNEY and Vincent CARNEY bought more land holdings on Dry Fork Creek on the same day (6 Jun 1809) from Frederick Stump. John CARNEY and William CARNEY bought land on nearby Marrowbone Creek in February, 1812. John Carney bought land known as "Edward Blackburn's old place" on March 25, 1812 - 40 acres on Marrowbone. This follows the worst earthquake in U.S. History which occurred February 7th in Northwest Tennessee where a vast land area drops several fee, tidal waves and a back flowing Mississippi River result in 13,000 acre Reelfoot Lake.

    During the war of Independence from English rule, John Kearney (Carney) was assigned to The Army of General George Rogers Clark and Crockett's Regiment with Richard Brashear who was at Cahokia on 31 may 1780. John is believed to be related to Arthur Kearney, who married Celeste Brashear indicating at least a familiarity with the Brashear family further strengthening the connection to Arthur as John's relative. Most of Brashear's regiment resettled in Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama. This would fit with John's resettlement of his family after service from North Carolina to Tennessee in 1783 following the war. Source Book: "Pioneers of Davidson County, Tennessee" - By: Edythe R. Whitley "The men in Captain Roger's Old Militia Company lived in the North East part of Davidson County from Dry Fork/Whites Creek to Sycamore Creek"

    By 1790, The newly formed United States had 230,000 immigrants from England, and the second most prolific immigrants were 142,000 settlers from Ireland. Together with other immigrant nationalities and all their descendants, the population was now 3,929,326. In 1917, The Irish (later termed Scotch-Irish in 1970's), begin deserting Ireland following 100 years of leasing land with oppressive rents by absentee Anglo landlords and a crumbling linen trade, famine and droughts. The Presbyterians who predominated the Irish were disadvantaged by the Penal laws of the Church of England, but were just a likely to become Methodists and Baptists upon settlement in America. It is estimated over 200,000 Ulster Irish-Scotts relocated to America, followed my more when the potato famines later occurred. Most of the earlier settlers found there independent and unique ways were unwelcome in Boston, Philadelphia, etc unlike the potato famine refugees in later years, and found themselves traveling to the backwoods of America and the Appalachian region, settled almost exclusively by these Irish. The typical migration involved small networks of related families/clans that settled together, intermarried and avoided outsiders. After many years of English oppression in Ireland, these Irish were ardent patriots of their new land America.

    Later, it is noted there were four of these men (John, William, Elijah and Vincent) listed on the rolls of the 1812 Davidson County Militia. John and William were in one regiment, and Elijah and Vincent were in another. It is believed that this John was not a participant, but it would have been nephew John Jr. (B:1775) , as this John would have been in his 60's. It cannot be ascertained with certainty if these Militia members were involved in only defense or saw any action in nearby states against the Spanish. Militia members were not entitled to land grants following the war, only those who served for three years in the regular military.

    We find JOHN KERNEY in the 1830 Davidson County, Tennessee Census 2 males - under 5; 1 male - age 15/20; 1 male - 80/90; 1 female - under 5; 1 female - age 15/20; 1 female - age 20/30; 1 female - age 60/70; 1 female - age 80/90. This would indicate he was married as late as his eighties, but to whom it is not known.

    The rest of the family is well documented in the area for years to come with children, families, extended families etc, but further mention of John Carney after 1830 is not confirmable in context to be our John Carney, and his death was believed to be around 1838.

    Notes:

    I preface this particular person's lineage with the caveat that this is a 'best evidence' assumption based on facts and DNA evidence.

    Arthur Carney was born about 1755-1760 in North Carolina, to the son of Arthur Carney the Indian Trader and Elizabeth Aderton. Like his father, Arthur became an Indian Trader to the Choctaw's and was found to have a trading post under the Spanish Grand Party in 1787 (after his father's death) in Spanish Territory that was at the time known as east Florida in the Mississippi Valley near New Orleans, at the mouth of the Yazoo River. This trading post provided beef from Texas Trading Companies, among other items.

    While establishing himself as an Indian Trader, Arthur was offered, and took up a Choctaw Indian wife named Hoke (Hokey) from a prominent family, and from this union his wife bore a child and named him Jeremiah (Jerry) Carney, namesake of his father's son Jeremiah, his uncle. This wife is also documented in the baptismal certificate on file for his son Jeremiah. He also had another son by Hoke, who he named Arthur after his father, and who is found in the Armstrong Rolls when forced in the emigration to Oklahoma in later years. In addition, he had a white wife named Matilda, and much later another Celeste Brashear with which he had one child Elizabeth Louisiana Carney. Celeste died in childbirth in 1798 after 1 year of marriage, and daughter Elizabeth was orphaned at 6 years of age when Arthur was also killed on 6th of July 1804 at age 49.

    To fill in a few years in between; we find in various documents that Arthur was an active Indian Trader and a man of wealth and prosperity, with friends of other prominent traders such as Turner Brashears, Louis Leflore, Alexander Fazier and others. In later years he was in a partnership in the mercantile business with John Edgerill, which ended in 1802 when Elderill filed suit for an improper accounting by Carney. But, before any decree or payment was made, Arthur died in unknown circumstances. Not long after that, Edgergill died in 1807 and the suit was later renewed in the name of Prosper and Richard King, Edergills heirs or assignees. The Kings obtained a decree against Arthur's estate, now held by his widowed wife who had now married John Cummins. The decree also extended to Joseph Nichols and his wife Elizabeth who was the daughter of Arthur Carney. John Cummins was the administrator of Arthur's estate, as mentioned by Kings attorney.

    A major setback for Arthur occurred during the American War of Independence started in 1776, when like his father (who died in the war), he sided as a loyalist with the British. At the end of the war, Arthur was given 6 months to settle his estate and was then banished from the Colonial Union under the Act of Attainder, Banishments and Confiscation and selling any effected assets quickly, as he took refuge in Spanish eastern Florida (later known as Louisiana and Mississippi). In 1784, he was in court in East Florida, in a case against Manuel Solano and Arthur Carney. He denied charges of Theft but admitted that they beat up a negro named Frank.

    Notes:

    This Arthur is mentioned and has proved the relationship by a Will mentioned in a lawsuit in May 1813, Adams County. In this lawsuit, William is noted as having died without children, and in his Will, his considerable wealth was to be distributed to his nephews, Arthur Carney of the Choctaw Nation and William Carney of Georgia.

    John Cummins and Nancy/Ann Breashears, guardians .
    Testimony taken from Samuel Gibson of Port Gibson states that Arthur Carney took possession of some cash found in a trunk following the death of William Carney SR. Marian (aka Maria) & Elizabeth were heirs of Arthur Carney. John Taylor is Wm Carney's Att'y. (See WM Brocus VS Thomas Crabb) William Carney was Samuel Gibson's Uncle. WM Carney Sr. who died Jan 2, 1795 left his entire estate to his nephews. Arthur Carney of the Choctaw Nation & William Carney then of Camden Co. Ga. Arthur Carney deceived Williams as to the value of this estate and William accepted payment of $800.00 for his part witnessed by WM Davis & Rees when the estate was really worth more than $10,000
    William Carney states that he was born Feb 28, 1779 and was therefore under age 21 at that time; and that he came to the MS Territory in 1806 and found out the truth about this estate.

    Arthur applied to Colonel William Wards Register to become a 'citizen' and remain in Mississippi instead of being removed to Oklahoma:

    John Edgerill and Arthur Carney had been partners in mercantile business. Elderill began suit in year 1802, in Mississippi Territory, against Carney for an accounting of partnership. In 1803 before any decree or payment as made, Carney died and wife administered estate, she afterwards married John Cummins, who acted as admr. In right of wife until 1812, Edgergill died in 1807 and suite renewed in the name of Prosper and Richard King. The Kings obtained a degree against Cummins and wife, Joseph Nichols and his wife, who was a daughter of Carney

    Adminstrator of Arthur's estate, John Cummings on OCT. 30, 1804....

    Arthur Jr of Liberty, GA appears as a Loyalist (banished with some others that appear on 1779 Natchez petition with William Carney. These guys had Tobacco Plantations there to trade with the Indians so they were influential in Politics according to Dr Donald Panther Yates. This Arthur married Celeste Brashears as his white wife 1797 abt so he shouldn't be the same Arthur that married Mary White in NC, Mary went on to AR and died. The White Family in Choctaw, County , AL. So unless there was a divorce or one came right after the other. Celeste Apparantly may have died in childbirth leaving a Daughter Elizabeth. There was a daughter Marian who we don't know was her mother shows up in the Arthur of Natchez Estates lawsuits that went on til Elizabeth was grown, Her Grandmother Anna Brocas Brashears was her guardian. Matilda Cummings Arthur wife who remarried Cummings was in charge of the lawsuits, Marian may be her dau

    His Indian Wife was Hoke who he had Jerry with and was baptised in 1795 Mobile, West florida I am thinking by Arthur, Hoke, Louis Leflore as Louis and Hoke 2 girls were baptised abt the same time. this was before he married Celeste Brashears who was a dau of Richard Brashears Commander at Ft. Tombecbe. She was Young abt 17 and she died 1798. After the Arthur in NC was married to Mary White.

    Arthur Carney was in one of the Disappearing Counties, Glynn County, GA.
    As well as Traders McIntosh, Others. The Traders ususally had white wives in GA and when they brought trade among the Indian Villiages they had a Indian Wife as part of the Culture. Traders usually had one special village to exclusive trade.So, Bourbon County was in Existance as Natchez Counties 1785-1788 which definitely covers the times we have found Arthur with Jerry. The Arthur Brashears person is either our Arthur who may have come to the area again in 1792 or a son of Arthur from GA. I really think a lot of the evidence supports his going back and forth.. A lot of the traders in those times were Scot-Irish Men or British Traders, Carney of Course having come into the area with the French by 1731 was in an excellent position to develop cultural and leadership ties. It was usually the mixed blood children of these men that attained the stature of leadership during the removal period.so we have 2 ties to Traders with Hoke, Louis, and Arthur. There is a lot to substantiate the close ties with the namesakes of Jerry Kids, that kinship probably thru Hoke.or The father of Arthur I will look more into GA records now that I understand where to look. I think it is possible that the info I found GA Paper re Arthur and his orphans Jeremiah and Margaret is on the money. The Will probably ended up in litigation in GA because of the Brashears. Sometimes the Husband of the Daughters entered into that on their Behalf. Where we see that Jerry was in a suit with John Taylor. That could as well been part of the same suit. Never know if could be the Georgia Archives we find Supreme court info. I knew about these GA land schemes as that was mentioned in the Harrington Info, It is the Harrintons involved with Brashears in the Timeframe 1804.
    So, The Arthur JR(maybe) could have inheirited as well. So... Just a line of reasoning.Remember the Elizabeth Carney suit Didn't you find they were found in favor of Carney? same as Jerry.?
    This is my short list of reasoning for research at this point. as we left off
    Hoke, Lefluers, and the law suits. DJ

    Supporting DOCUMENT Baptism Certificate: Baptized at 9 years in Mobile, Alabama. Child of Arthur Kearny and Hokey (Choctaw Indian) 4 May 1795 Jerry was elected as Captain of his village to represent them in government affairs. He was a corporal in the War of 1812 Nixon's Regiment. Per June Pollard: On his military discharge papers indicated he lived "in Amite" (probably Marion Co. later)...in l84l & l842 he purchased land in Madison Co. by cash and indicated he lived in Marion Co. MS. He owned lots of land in Madison Co., MS which his heirs filed for in AR but Jerry also owned property in other counties so it is uncertain where he is buried..

    Captain was a title adaptated by the Choctaw from white mans ranking system to designate a lower level leader of a band of warriors; with the Chief known as Big Medal, his assistant as Little Medal, followed by Captains leading the groups of warriors.
    Jerry was a Corporal in the Mil. The Capt Rank comes a Choctaw Title. War of 1812 Jerry Served in Nixon's Reg. Ikenaby served with Andrew Jackson.Ikanaby also served Choctaws in War of 1812.

This, while true, is misleading. Although the position of Chief generally went to the nephew of the Chief through the sister of the former Chief, the council would chose the canditate also based on his merits as a warrior. H.B. Cushman uses this example in reference to Pushmataha. Presumably, the need for this was that their may be more than one nephew who was vying for leadership. Additionally, the first Chiefs most books referred to as "elected" were descendants of the same three bloodlines as the former Chiefs Mushatubbee (David Folsom and Robert Kincaid), Apuckanubee (presumed relationship, Robert Cole, Greenwood Leflore, Thomas Leflore), and Pushmataha (Oklahoma (sometimes called Tappenhoma) Nittakechi, Pierre Juzan). The descendants of these families continued an active role in tribal government until the Dawes Commission act of 1896, many holding the office of Chief.

    EARLY PLANT AND SEED CATALOG PUT OUT BY EMH ON FILE. CAUSE OF DEATH:PNEUMONIA BURIAL:IT IS BELIEVED THAT ELIJAH AND SARAH ARE PROBABLY BURIED IN THE CARNEY FAMILY CEMETERY ON STENBERG ROAD, BUT THEIR HEADSTONES HAVE NOT BEEN LOCATED THE RESTORATION OF THE CEMETERY HAS NOT YET BEEN COMPLETED BY GLENDA CROSS AND HER FATHER. THE CEMETERY IS LOCATED BEHIND THE OLD EMH HOMESITE IN WHITE'S CREEK. STORY TOLD BY EMMA CLAY CARNEY:THERE WAS A MAN WHO WANTED TO BUY EMH'S PROPERTY AND "UNCLE LIGE" WOULD NOT SELL IT TO HIM. THIS MAN WAS SO DETERMINED TO OWN THAT PLACE, THAT HE DECIDED TO "HAUNT" IT AND MAKE TALK ABOUT THE PLACE HAVING A GHOST HAUNTING IT AND EMH WOULD THEN BE GLAD TO SELL IT TO HIM. SO ABOUT DARK, SOMETHING WHITE WOULD APPEAR OUT OF THE WOODS AND SCREAM LIKE A WOMAN. SEEMS THIS WENT ON FOR QUITE SOME TIME SO ELIJAH DECIDED TO GET HIS NEIGHBORS (MEN WHO OWNED DOGS) TOGETHER AND THEY WAITED (WITH THEIR DOGS) FOR THIS "GHOST" TO APPEAR AND WHEN IT DID, THE MEN AND DOGS STARTED AFTER IT. THE DOGS GOT SO CLOSE, THE MAN JERKED OFF THE SHEET AND CLIMBED A NEARBY TREE ! OF COURSE, THAT ENDED THE "HAUNTING". MISS EMMA SAID THE MAN'S NAME WAS JOE DUNN, BUT SHE DID NOT KNOW IF THIS JOE DUNN WAS RELATED TO MARY JANE DUNN, WIFE OF JOSEPH ELIJAH CARNEY, ELIJAH'S SON. ELIJAH'S LOG CABIN BURNED COMPLETELY TO THE GROUND. THE FIRE STARTED FROM SPARKS FROM A WOOD COOK-STOVE CATCHING WOOD SHINGLES ON THE ROOF AFIRE. PER EMMA:ONE TIME SARAH FRENSLEY CARNEY, WIFE OF EMH WAS SICK AND IN NEED OF MEDICAL ATTENTION SO A DOCTOR WAS SUMMONED. EMH WAS DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT HIS WIFE'S HEALTH AND FELT IT WAS TAKING THE COCTOR TOO LONG TO COME, SO HE SENT ANOTHER PERSON TO FETCH HIM. WHEN THE DOCTOR FINALLY ARRIVED, EMH WAS OUTSIDE IN THE YARD WAITING FOR HIM. THE DOCTOR APPEARED TO BE IN NO HURRY AND UPON APPROACHING EMH, OFFERED HIS AHND IN FRIENDSHIP AND EMH PUT BOTH HANDS BEHIND HIS BACK AND SAID, "DON'T TAKE TIME TO SHAKE MY HAND. YOU'RE NEEDED IN THE HOUSE"!!! THIS WAS SAID WITH COOL BLUNTNEWSS. HE WAS ANGRY BECAUSE THE DOCTOR HAD TAKEN SO LONG TO COME TO HIS WIFE'S AID AND WAS IN NO MOOD FOR FRIENDLINESS. HE WAS ONLY CONCERNED WITH THE DOCTOR TAKING CARE OF HIS WIFE, AND MADE NO BONES ABOUT IT. EMH CARNEY WAS KNOWN TO BE A VERY BLUNT-SPEAKING MAN !
