Hi! Brenda, and Welcome to the Forum,

I’m a little bogged down at the moment but I’ll see what I can do.

Brenda,

Looking back at NC census records, it appears that Thomas Carrow was born in Hyde Co and moved during the 1810’s to Beaufort Co.

The 1800 Hyde Co census shows:

p.366: Thomas Carrow = 00100-00000-0-2.

his household contains:

1 white male 16 to 25

2 slaves.

Other Carrow’s in Hyde Co:

(census categories, separated with a “-“, listed below are:

1) White males

…..0 to 9 yrs old.

…..10 to 15.

…..16 to 25.

…..26 to 44.

…..45 and over.

2) White females

(same age range as for males)

3) All Other Free Persons

4) Slaves.)

p.364: Jas. = 00100-00000-0-0.

p.365: Henry, Senr. = 10001-21010-0-0.

p.365: Henry, Junr. = 20010-50010-0-1.

p.365: John, Senr. = 00010-40010-0-1

p.365: John, Junr. = 10010-10010-0-0.

So, Henry Carrow, Senr., age 45 and over, is the oldest Carrow there in 1800, and is probably Thomas’s father since the others appear to be too young for Thomas to be their son, IF these age ranges are correct.

a “Petition of Henry Carrow” is on p.23, Volume 11, No. 1, Spring 1990, of “High Tides”, The Hyde Co., NC Historical Society Journal.
