Hello Rosie,

Thanks for responding - The Samuel Carroll married to Amanda I have born in 1817 - I don't have real info on the Black family other then what you and Lorna had posted. I just started working on this line a few months back. I decend through her and Samuel's daughter Emma Jane who married Samuel Musick.

Anything "interesting" you have I'd be extremely grateful for. Like you I'm a sponge on the whole family history now.

Here is her obit.

Thanks -- Teressa

Found Dead in Chair

Mrs. Samuel Carroll aged 89, who lived at Neosho Rapids, was found dead in her rocking chair, at 6 o'clock this morning by one of her sons.. It is supposed her death was the result of asthma, from which she had suffered for years. Mrs. Carroll was in the habit of rising before the rest of the family and making herself a cup of coffee. As soon as the son came downstairs this morning he discovered the body of his mother.

She leaves behind besides her husband five children as follows: J. A Carroll of Indiana, who is here on a visit; J. G. Carroll of Marion; and G.A Carroll of Neosho Rapids; Two daughters; Mrs M A Suffald of Marion; and Mrs S. J. Musick, of Neosho Rapids. The husband and father is 99 years old and blind and deaf.

The funeral will occur tomorrow at the house, and the interment will be in the Chicago Mound Cemetery. Rev. Porter of Allen will conduct the services.
