CARLOSS, PRIDE, FRANKLIN



Andrew J. CARLOSS is a son of Archelaus and Ruth (PRIDE) CARLOSS, is one of

their thirteen children and was born in North Carolina in 1815.  The father

was born in North Carolina in 1767, and was a son of Edward C. CARLOSS, who

was born in Spain and immigrated to America when a young man.  Archelaus'

parents died when he was small, and he was apprenticed to learn the

carpenter's trade, and while serving his apprenticeship assisted in

building the first State capitol of North Carolina.  He and wife died in

North Carolina in 1845 and 1826, respectively.  Andrew J. received a

practical education, and at the age of nineteen came to Tennessee, where he

has always made his home, with the exception of a short time spent in

Alabama.  July 30, 1839, he married Mary Ann FRANKLIN, granddaughter of

ex-Gov. FRANKLIN, of North Carolina, who died at the age of fourteen

years.*  Mr. CARLOSS owns 2,800 acres of land, and is a man of undoubted

integrity.  He has been a lifelong Democrat.  His wife was born in Alabama

in August, 1821.  Her parents, James and Frances FRANKLIN, were born in
