Carrie married (1) JAMES ORR MCCOLLUM Abt. 1904. He was born in May 1882.
She married (2) CLARK H. ROWLEY Abt. 1911. He was born in June 1882.
Carrie died at age 33 of tuberculosis (TB), a common and often deadly infectious disease that usually attacks the lungs. The classic symptoms are a chronic cough with blood-tinged sputum, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. Treatment is difficult and requires long courses of multiple antibiotics. Mass vaccination against tuberculosis did not start until after World War II.

The 1910 census shows Carrie McCollum and son Austin McCollum living in her father Adam Hammer's home, apparently divorced from James McCollum. James is listed as living with his mother Eudella "Dell" McCollum and her second husband Lewis Rash.
