Biography

John and Louisa Carr from Washington County History

History of Washington County, Tennessee, 1988 by Watauga Association of Genealogists p.281

John Carr (1737-1818) was the third son of Robert Carr and Mary Williams.
John married Louvisa Isbell (1743-1806), daughter of Zachariah Isbell and Elizabeth Taylor.
John Carr served in the Revolution in SC, enlisting in 1775, 8th Company of Rangers, Captain Thomas Woodward’s Company. He also served in the Third Regiment of SC under Colonel William Thompson.
He came to Washington County area and bought the 132-acre land grant (NC) from William McBee in 1789. He bought another 100 acres on Knob Creek, adjoining the first 132 acres in 1789 from John Callahan and still another 100 acres on the West Branch of Knob creek in 1796.
Their first home was the McBee home which was built over a spring to give the family access to water during Indian attacks. The second home was built sometime prior to 1852. It was later remodeled and is now occupied by a descendant.
John and Louvisa were buried on their own land under a tall pine tree from which the home got its name, “Lone Pine.” The property passed to their son, William Carr, later sold to a Krouse and in 1852 was sold to James Crumley.
John and Louvisa had sixteen children, all born in SC. Several children died in infancy* and their names were given to later born children to preserve the Carr-Isbell family names.
