Notes	In 1839 after the death of his parents, the courts made Samuel, along with sisters Nancy and Permelia, wards of their brother, William Carrington. 1840 United States Federal Census about Samuel Carrington Name: Samuel Carrington Township: Liberty County: Callaway State: Missouri Number of persons in household: Ages of persons in household: 1 male 20 and under 30 - Samuel 1 female 20 and under 30 - Lydia Source Citation: Year: 1840; Census Place: , Callaway, Missouri; Roll: 221; Page: 187. Samuel and wife Lydia sold real estate for $300 as heirs of Randolph, 1840. This ground was in Section 33, Range 10 west, Township 47; in Round Prairie (West Callaway Co), in current town of Carrington. The land was original land grant to Randolph Carrington on Nov. 2, 1827 1860 United States Federal Census about Sam Carrington Name: Sam Carrington Age in 1860: 40 Birth Year: abt 1820 Birthplace: Kentucky Home in 1860: Township 59 Range 19, Linn, Missouri Gender: Male Post Office: St Catharine Value of real estate: $600 $437 Household Members: Name Age Sam Carrington 40 Lydia A Carrington 41 Andrew J Carrington 19 John R Carrington 17 Mary A Carrington 12 Joseph T Carrington 3 Nathan D Carrington 8.12 Ann Bowin 66 mother-in-law Source Citation: Year: 1860; Census Place: Township 59 Range 19, Linn, Missouri; Roll: M653_630; Page: 0; Image: 65. On the 1870 census they are back in Callaway Co., Missouri, his father in law, Andrew Bowen, age 78 was living with them. There is a Mary Bowen age 55, born in Kentucky, also living there, She is either a second wife, or his daughter. Lydia had a sister named Mary born about that time. They were also living next door to Andrew Herring. 5 Sept. 1879 Estate appraisal (CC Co.) lists "Littie A. Carrington" as widow; value was $134 estimate and included two horses, 9 hogs, 45 bushels of wheat, and 40 barrels of wheat in field. Also had 120 acres of ground, worth $203, T46,R9,S30; Halfway between Ham's Prairie and Caldwell. This land was immediately south of Joseph L. Mosley's land and James Burle Mosley land per 1876 Range map. The land apparently was obtained from Ephrain Owen since he had it as an oriiginal land grant from 2/24/1857 - F102). Probate also mentions that he owed $20 for 5 visits by Dr. Nixon during last illness. Period was 6 to 13 July 1879. In May 2007, we discovered what is a previously unknown Callaway county cemetery. Samuel and Lydia Bowen Carrington were both buried either on his land or right next door on Mosley land. Daughter Mary Ann Carrington married James Mosley. There were probably other Carrington and Mosely burials there. The owner of that land now remembers a small cemetery with standing headstones when he first bought his property. He also remembers that about 12 years ago (abt 1995) the property owner where the family cemetery was, bulldozing the land. The current property owner is willing to take us out to have a look where the cemetery was, and we hope to be able to do that on another research trip. This is a totally destroyed cemetery.
