Eva, I deleted the 'euroaristo' tag from your post, since that's for the European Aristocrats Project, which this post doesn't have anything to do with.  Also, I added the link to the profile about which you're inquiring.

Best of luck with your search!

Hello, I was doing some research for a History paper. I was doing a search for John C. Huffman when I came across this. Sally Carnes would be my 6th great grandmother.

John C Huffman is my 6th great grandpa.Micheal and Sarah Carnes Huffman are my 5Th great grandparents.I have had my dna tested.I have one match maternally.and a whole lot of cousins mostly paternal.This is my current brick wall.

Would Sarah be a sister to Josiah Ashbury Carnes Sr of 1765? He married Patience Marsh in Masin Co Ky in 1795. I found the info on a Netherlands genealogy website.

She could very well be.I have nothing past what I posted and a dna test.This is so very awesome and I am forever looking for family. A love of anything family has began..Hello cousin.

I noticed that your Sarah Huffman profile is a duplicate.  I've recommended a merge.  The other profile shows Sarah as being born in Lincoln, Kentucky.  A census/tax search for the late 1700s/early 1800s shows there was a Joseph Carns on the 1800 tax list in Lincoln, KY.   There was a Josiah Carnes on the 1820 and 1830 Lincoln, KY census.  You might try researching and see what you find.  Best of luck!
