I am trying to find my extended family of McCartys.  I believe that Joseph McCarty is my ggggrandfather but this is as far as I can go.  The census records show:

MCCARTY JNO VA ROCKBRIDGE NO TWP LISTED 1810    00100 10100
[1 male 16-25, 1 female <10, 1 female 16-25].   No other McCartys in Rockbridge County in 1810.
MCCARTY JOSEPH VA ROCKBRIDGE LEXINGTON 1820    011210  10001
[1 male <10, 1 male 26-44, 1 female 26-44]  difficult to read.
MCCARTY JAMES VA ROCKBRIDGE LEXINGTON 1820      000010 10201
[1 male 26-44,  1 female <10, 2 females 16-25, 1 female >45]
MCCARTY JUSTIN VA ROCKBRIDGE LEXINGTON 1820      200010  20001
[2 males <10, 1 male 26-44, 2 females <10, 1 female >45]

However, there is also a John McCardy    210010 00110
[2 males <10, 1 male 10-15, 1 male 26-45, 1 female 10-15, 1 female 26-45] 
and an Andrew McCurdy     100010 10010
[1 male <10, 1 male 26-45, 1 female <10, 1 female 26-45]
in Lexington, Rockbridge County, in the 1820 US census.
[The Heritage Quest copy of this census report is very faint and nearly illegible.]

My GUESS is that Joseph, James, Justin, and perhaps John and Andrew, are 
brothers and their father is John (Jno.), but I have no proof.


The 1810  US census shows:
1810   >   Pennsylvania   >   WASHINGTON   >   MORRIS       Series: M252  Roll: 57   Page: 95
MCCARTY   	JOSEPH    PA   	WASHINGTON   	MORRIS   10001 10010 00
[1 male 0-9, 1 male >45, 1 female 0-9, 1 female 26-44].

The 1810 US census also shows:
1810  >  VIRGINIA   >  ROCKBRIDGE  >  NO TWP LISTED      Series M252 Roll 70  Page 783
MCCARTY  JNO	 VA	ROCKBRIDGE	00100  10100   [1 male 16-25, 1 female <10, 1 female 16-25]

By 1830:

(I have a perfect yDNA (25 SNPs) match with a descendant of this James C. McCarty.)
