Life

Robert M. Carlisle was born in Alabama on 20 August 1838, a son of Robert Whatley Carlisle and Clarissa Ann Mitchell Owens, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no source for the date.1 The tree gives his sister Mary Josephine a birth date of 3 August 1838, seventeen days earlier, so at least one of the two dates is wrong.2 Inference The census ages of the two children in 1850 and 1860 should show which; the index entries in hand do not give them.2 The federal census of 1850 lists Robert M. Carlile in his father's household in Tallapoosa County, and the census of 1860, indexed as "Robet M Carlisle," in his father's household in the 2nd Subdivision of Coosa County.3

On 8 December 1861 he married Julia A. F. Cradock, whom the tree calls Julia Ann Craddock, in Coosa County.4 A typed abstract of the Coosa County marriage book, in a Carlisle family file now at the Pascagoula Public Library in Mississippi, enters the same marriage on the same date as "Robert Carlisle and Julia A. E. Craddock."5 Inference The abstract's E and the index's F are probably two readings of one handwritten initial.5 The tree records a son, Daniel A. Carlisle, born in 1863, and lists a second child, "Danuel Roberson," born the same year.6 Inference The two are probably one child, entered once under his father's surname and once under his stepfather's, Roberson, after his mother's remarriage in 1866.6

Robert M. Carlisle died on 17 August 1864 in Bibb County, Georgia, according to the tree, which gives no source for the date or the place.7 Inference A young Alabama man dying in Bibb County, the county of Macon, in August 1864 was quite possibly a Confederate soldier dying in one of the military hospitals there, but no service record is attached to his profile and the cause and circumstances of his death are unknown.7 His widow married James W. Roberson in Tallapoosa County, Alabama, in August 1866.8
