Notes	1870 he was living and working as a farm laborer on James Dunavant farm. 1870 United States Federal Census about John F Carington Name: John F Carington Estimated birth year: abt 1848 Age in 1870: 22 Birthplace: Missouri Home in 1870: Fulton, Callaway, Missouri Race: White Gender: Male Post Office: Fulton Source Citation: Year: 1870; Census Place: Fulton, Callaway, Missouri; Roll: M593_764; Page: 339; Image: 233. They had one son who died young. A daughter Lena was a business woman in the west. Dimple taught at Chickasha, Oklahoma. Randa married and lived on a farm in Boone Co., Mo. -per Carrington Doc. I found Lena working as a stenographer in Fulton and then on later census she was a patient in the Fulton State Asylum. I find no evidence that she ever "was a business women in the west". 1850 census does not list him, but does list an un-named infant, female. on the 1900 census, John Carrington is in the Fulton State Asylum. 1900 United States Federal Census about J T Carrington Name: J T Carrington Home in 1900: Fulton, Callaway, Missouri Age: 53 Estimated birth year: abt 1847 Birthplace: Missouri Relationship to head-of-house: Patient Race: White Household Members: Name Age J T Carrington 53 Source Citation: Year: 1900; Census Place: Fulton, Callaway, Missouri; Roll: T623 844; Page: 2A; Enumeration District: 129. John T. (Grundy) Carrington Abt 61 14 May 1909 Callaway Weekly Gazette Auxvasse Review (Callaway Co.) Interesting note: Her obituary does not mention her three daughters. It does mention her husband but says he preceded her to the grave. He did not, His obituary does not mention his wife at all, but does mention the children. In 1900 John Carrington was a patient in the Fulton State Hospital. I have to wonder if they were divorced.
