Notes:

It appears that Carlton has his brother and his brothers family living within the household with them in 1850. It is assumed it is his brother. There is only 2 years between them so I am sure it is his brother. Accordifng to the online tree for this family Henry is Carlton's brother

Although find a grave and some printed booiks have Carlton's middle name as Belt; I have chosen just to put the B as there is no documentation to prove it.

The 1870 & 1880 Census has Carlton being born in 1828
