C is for Carlock
Carlock, Illinois was the home of Abraham and Laura (Taylor) Lantz before they made their way to Monroe County, Mississippi. Abraham was postmaster of Carlock for awhile, running the post office out of his store. In fact, the desk from which he ran the postal operations is still in the family. My uncle Bud had it for many years. His son Tom had it for awhile. My niece has it now.
