Notes

Commentary: DWD 4.87
There is limited evidence to establish that James H. McCarver is a son of John McCarver and Margaret Darwin apart from his own statement that he was born in Jackson Co., TN, which I believe would confirm that he is one of the male members listed on the 1820 TN census for the household of John McCarver's family.

James and Elizabeth were married 1 March 1838 in Pope Co., Illinois, where their first two children are listed on the 1840 IL census and the third child, Martha, was born 26 Feb. 1845 in Livingston Co., KY. It would seem that they divorced or separated some time after 1845 because Elizabeth married secondly, 26 Oct. 1848, William Moseley in Massac Co., IL., while shortly thereafter James is found in Crittenden Co., KY, which is adjacent to Livingston Co., KY, where he also remarried, 30 Nov. 1851, (Mary) Orpha Scarlett, officiated by J.B. Hadden MG. James settled with Orpha near Marion in Crittenden County until 1858, at which time he moved with his family near to Vienna, Johnson Co., IL. James died about 1873 and is buried at Wildcat Cemetery, near Vienna.
