James Henry CARMAN, Jr. (1820-1901)
* father: War of 1812 Veteran, U.S. Private in Colonel D. McCOBB's 45th U.S. Infantry, James Henry CARMAN, Sr. (c.1784-1824) born in New York, USA, dies July 14, 1824, in Southwark, (Philadelphia), Pennsylvania, USA, of debility. One account says that James, Sr. is a saddle-tree maker; James, Jr. becomes a saddle-tree maker, too. One note says that James, Sr. is buried in "Cemetery: Methodist Southwark." James, Sr.'s father was American Revolution Veteran, U.S. Private in Colonel S. DRAKE's Milita of Yorktown, New York, Henry CARMAN, Sr. (1746-1816) who loses an arm -- and survives -- from an accidental pistol-shot into his shoulder during the American Revolution.
* mother: Mary (Schellinger) CARMAN (unknown-unknown) born in New Jersey, USA. The 1862 Philadelphia City Directory does list an Aaron SCHELLINGER living at 340 Wharton Street who works as a saddle-tree maker. Maybe Aaron and Mary are related? Mary's father/grandfather may be William Henry SCHELLENGER (1746-1827) of Cape May, (Cape May), New Jersey, USA.
* James, Sr. & Mary have two children on record:
1.) James Henry CARMAN, Jr. (1820-1901) marries Rebecca P. (Brown?) CARMAN (1822-1886), they have possibly eight children. James, Jr. works as a saddle-tree maker; teamster; harness maker; sells flour, feed, and grain at his own store "J.H. Carman & Son" with his son Florence; builds carriages at "J.H. Carman & Co." with John C. BECHTEL and Lewis HAYS -- the feed store and carriage shop are next-door to each other at 672 and 674 North Broad Street; and later as a casemaker. One record suggests that Rebecca P. had previously married a "William Henry COLLIER" and that he fathered her son William Henry before marrying James, Jr. But I never see Rebecca's son listed as a COLLIER, so I will assume that James, Jr. is his father. As a widower, James, Jr. remarries Frances M. (Parker) CARMAN (unknown-unknown); James, Jr. has one more daughter with Frances.
