    Notes:

    Elizabeth is probably buried in the Carney Family Cemetery on Stenberg Road in Whites Creek, Davidson County, Tennessee. Elizabeth appeared on 1830 census in Elijah's household but not on 1840 census; thus it is presumed she died 1830-1840, in what is now known as Whites Creek, Davidson County, Tennessee. Per: Glenda Carney On marriage bond, the Clerk wrote Elizabeth's middle name as "CEALS". Since Elizabeth probably could not read nor write, she was unaware her name had been spelled incorrectly. All subsequent references refer to her as Elizabeth "C." Goldsberry because of the Clerk's error. I am convinced her middle name should have been spelled 'SEALE" because that was the correct spelling of her Paternal Grandmother, ELIZABETH SEALE.

    Elizabeth married Elijah CARNEY on 22 May 1806 in Davidson County, Tennessee. Elijah (son of John CARNEY and Unproven) was born in 1771 in North Carolina; died in 1851 in Davidson County, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    From Bellinda Myrick-Barnett "Was Mary's name PERSON or PETERSON? Both of those families married into the THORPE, HARRIS, MYRICK and other connecting families and as I didn't have her last name I am unsure. Timothy THORPE, Sr. and wife, Mary, were the parents of the following children according to my information and the 1st child show, Mary THORPE, born: Abt. 1700 in Isle of Wight Co., VA, married twice, once to Edward (2) HARRIS, II/Jr. who was the son of Mary TURNER, born: 1675 in Isle of Wight Co., VA, died: April 27, 1733 in Isle of Wight Co., VA, md: 1685 in Isle of Wight Co., VA, (daughter of Mary TOMLIN and John (1) TURNER, I/Sr., born: 1656 in Charles City, Henrico County, Virginia, died: Aft.

This Owen (1) MYRICK, I/Sr. was involved with and arrested during BACON'S REBELLION and he was married twice to 1st wife: Joan THORPE?, (not sure of her last name yet but if a THORPE then I am most sure she was related to the Mary THORPE who married their grandson and Joan THORPE? was the mother of the children of Owen (1) MYRICK, Sr./I who later married as the 2nd husband of Mrs. Mary GREEN? GRAYE, (widow of (Sir) John GRAYE.) I descend from Owen (1) MYRICK, Sr./I and wife, Joan THORPE?, it is believed through their son, Francis (1) MYRICK, Sr., whom is believed to have married a woman named Rebecca CARROLL? and through either their son, John MYRICK, or their son, Richard MYRICK, through either John or Richard's son, (Colonel) James L. MYRICK, (RS,) and wife, Mary BROOKER, and their son, William MYRICK, and wife, Elizabeth "Bettie" PIERCE, and their son, William H.
