I am looking for burial sites, names of cemetery, town, state where the following relatives are buried: William A. Carloss and Fanny Rebecca Cox Carloss, B 1844; John Carloss, William Carloss, Richard Marion Carloss, Lanny Carloss, Thomas Cooke Carloss, and James Ralph Carloss. This is Father, Mother, and 6 boys. They lived in Alvord, Tx, some moved to Mangum, Ok and we never heard from or saw any of them again. Richard Marion is our grandfather and is buried in Ball Knob, Alvord, Tx. 1900. Please help find where these are buried.

I am a little confused. . . You knew these relatives - and your grandfather died in 1900? What brings you to Tampico, IL? There are five other Tampico's in the US and also Tampico, Mexico.
Here is a 1910 Census. The surname was indexed as "Carlon" - However, when you view the actual census record, it is clearly "Carloss"

Are you sure Fanny was married to "William"? I could not find any Wm. married to a Fanny. The Harry or H. C. and Fanny show up on several census records. Hary O is listed as the "husband" - but he would have been 10 years old when "son" William was born. Since the next census shows him as being one year older than Fannie, we could safely assume this is mis-transcribed in this 1880 census! Here is an 1880 census record that is similar to the information you gave:

Mark,
It has been a while since I made that post.
I am going on memory since my email service provider has obliterated my email address book several times (I kept all of my notes on contacts in the address book). If memory serves, I communicated with this person via email and she realized she was referring to a source in Tampico, INDIANA!

I am forwarding your post on to her and hopefully she will get in contact with you.

Thanks for letting us know that you are the source for the genealogical reports listed above. Ancestry on has it listed on the ONE WORLD compilation, with no "source." I will edit the above post with a reference to you.

It would be nice if you could let the board know the status of this message. Thanks
Denise

Mark,

I am Leeman Cunningham. Richard Marion Carloss is my grandfather. Richard Marion and Lula Ida Foster Carloss had 3 girls, Bettie, Belle, Bennie Merly, and Bethel. Richard took T.B. and died in 1900. He is buried at Ball Knob, near Alvord, Tx. Bethel is my Mother. Bethel married Arthur Wade Cunningham in 1915 and had 8 children, Rena Ruth, Richard Wade, Ozro Wayland, Eugene, Rosale, Mildred, A. W. Jr., and Leeman. Lula is buried in Caddo, Ok. I have some family info on the Carloss family but there is a woman cousin in Anchorage Alaska who has more and is part of the family also. Her name is Helen Burkes, email is Hmburkes@aol.com.
Please tell me how you are kin to Richard Marion.
Leeman and Delma Cunningham

Denise,
Carloss Family. the info you posted, some of the names are correct, the names I have been told is Rebecca Cox Carloss, husband shows Hary, H. C. Hary O, not sure what is correct, children are John, William, Richard Marion, Lanny, Tom who was the doctor, and James Ralph. These names were given to me by Richard's daughter Bennie Meryl who was borned and raised in Alvord and knew all these brothers. The Mother and Father were dead. In fact she only said Grandpa Carloss but named Rebecca Cox Carloss. Richard Marion and wife Lula Ida Foster Carloss had 3 girls, Bettie, Belle, Bennie Merly, and Bethel. Richard died in 1900 of T.B. leaving 4 little girls, Bethel was 2 years old. We are from Bethel. Bethel married Arthur Wade Cunningham in 1915 and had 8 children, Rena Ruth, Richard wade, Ozro Wayland, Eugene, Rosalee, Mildred, A. W. jr., and Leeman. Richard is buried in Ball Knob near Alvord,Tx, Lula in Caddo, Ok, Arthur and Bethel in Alvord, tx. I have more info on the Carloss and Cunningham families. How are you related to the carloss' family?

Denise,

Thanks for your help. I have already received two e-mails from long-lost cousins as a result. I was actually Googling for information on Foster Methodist Church in Wise County, Texas, and your website was at the top of the list. Completely accidental, but fortuitous.

Leeman,

I am a grandson of Bennie Myrle Carloss and her husband, Ernest Edward Alexander. I knew that Bethel was married to a Cunningham, but no more. I have a little more info on the descendants of other sisters, and have recently learned quite a bit about the Carloss line through census records on the Internet. Any additional information you can provide will be appreciated. I will e-mail you shortly.

I received the following information from Rick Ramo:
Hi Denise,

Rick Ramo here. I was filling in details on Carloss lines at Ancestry dot com and in a search ran across your Tampico pages.

I have not analyzed the handy hints in that Tampico Carloss thread, but it would appear they are looking for decedents from My Great Grandfathers Uncle.

Here is a snip of what I wanted to include in that thread. It is cut from a correspondence last week to Kay Sloan. But, I have run into a bit of a problem logging in to post.
-----
Carloss, The farthest back I personally knew was Grandmother, and Great Grandfather. Let me see if I can work this backwards as I have come to understand it from Census records.
Me-Richard W. Ramo 1955
---Vincent Ramo 1932
---Johnny Cue Carloss Ramo 1910-1990 (Grandmother)
---Henry Garnett Carloss 1888-1960 (Railroad telegrapher first third of last century on Katy RR)
---William Archy Carloss 1869-1932 (A Texas Farmer)
---Henry C Carloss 1842-1917 (Trigg Co, Kentucky to MO, to Texas, to Macintosh Co, Oklahoma)
---William Peete Carloss Jr 1818-?
---William Peete Carloss Sr 1781-?
---Cole Carloss 1763-1792 (All I know is from the Kay Sloan essay, I have not found the full Revolutionary war service records yet of Sgt. Cole Carloss NC)
---John Carloss ?-? Other than John and Mary, I have found no reference to these people. Full names, where they came from? A dead end. As you know it is said Cole was executor of John's Estate and left the scene around June 1792 by Lightning strike. His widow "Margaret Peggy Wyche" was said to have executed both John Carloss and Cole Carloss's Estates. What became of John's wife Mary I do not know. Who was Mary, I do not know (hard to find anything without Mary's full name). Cole's siblings? Mysteries on enigmas.
Cole Carloss is listed in the 1790 Census in North Carolina, but no John Carloss (CARL* not found in subsequent 1790 NC Census search) I will have to find the Virginia 1790 and search that.

Those whom I knew.
Grandmother Johnny Cue (Carloss) Ramo. Red haired and Quick tempered. She said that Daddy (Henry Garnett Carloss) Said her head looked like a Cue Ball when she was born and they made her middle name Cue. She thought they were Spanish because her Grandfather said he was from Cadiz. Hmm, his (Henry C) joke I guess. Cadiz is the going urban cluster in Trigg Co, Kentucky.

Her Sister, Virginia Mae (Carloss) Carter. Charles R. and Virginia Mae (Carloss) Carter Lived in Dallas where he was a projectionist, and later real estate. They had no children.

Henry Garnett Carloss was a telegrapher on the Katy RR in the early part of the last century, Born in Wise County Texas on the farm. He was in several whistle stops across Central Oklahoma. Settling in Oklahoma city Near the Rail yards downtown on NE2nd St. Sometime in the 1920's he Retired from the Railroad and moved way uptown to 320 NE11th st. at which time they had a Cigar store / restaurant downtown on Broadway called "City Pumps" where lawyers and political hacks hung around for Cigars, Beer and idle conversation. The 30's, 40's they never really mentioned. Garnett's wife Myrtle May Stepp had said she was a Cousin of Alfalfa Bill Murray. As a tiny baby, I saw Alfalfa Bill at their house shortly before his Death. There was some light talk about early Oklahoma politics and Garnett's part in moving the State Seal from Guthrie to Oklahoma City, which severely pinched some Washington insiders that had bought huge tracts of land around Guthrie in anticipation of it being the capital of a new state. Heh heh heh on them.

At Ancestry.com I am an unpaid member and can perform only the most rudimentary tasks (save data for others who will pay ancestry.com mostly). You are more than welcome to thumb through my tree collection (Ramo Family). I have access to some pictures Johnny Cue Carloss left in a cedar chest. There may be some photos of William Archy Carloss.

(Note from Denise McLoughlin: If you want to respond to this thread, please email me with a hyper-link to this thread. I am sorry for the inconvenience, but the spammers have ruined this for all! I can ask permission to exchange emails with Rick if you like)

More information from Richard Ramo:

RE: Fanny Carloss. That would be Francis Ann Garnett wife of William Peete Carloss Jr. WPC died in 1853, Fanny remarried 1854 taking one 7 year old daughter Susan Carloss with her to the second marriage, the older children were sent off to Francis Uncles and parents (The Garnett families). There was no mention of the disposition of the old thriving tobacco farms of either WPC Jr or Sr. Hmm.

A mild point of interest, the Mystery Cole Carloss Revolutionary war Sgt of North Carolina. His Wife Margaret Peggy Wyche was very easy to find in a name web search. A descendant of William de Wyche a witness to the Magna Carta. That would indicate decendants of Cole and Peggy are eligible for the order Charlemagne and the magna carta in america, as well as DAR, SAR. And related to Saint Richard.
