  • Notes 
    • From Professor William T. Carrington Manuscript
      Randolph and Catherine moved to Missouri in 1826, living in Callaway Co. until their death. They selected 165 acres covered with walnut, hickory and black oak trees, two miles from the Middle River. In a few years a public school was erected at the northwest corner of his farm which has been known, for over a century, as the Carrington School. A family burying ground on this farm became a large community cemetery named Carrington Cemetery. Some time after 1850 the Chicago & Alton R.R. was run near and the town of Carrington was laid out.

      Randolph Carrington had a saw mill run by horse power which in a few years was converted into a grist mill. It made meal and flour for people living far and near for some twenty years. He had a high bred stallion and three brood mares when he moved from Kentucky. He loved such sports as was usual for lovers of fine horses and fox chasing. ...end of Prof. William Carrington notes

      He is also shown as having received several land patents in the BLM records. The first of those Land Patents (Certificate 1484) was issued on 1 January 1828 and covered the following land in Callaway County, MO:

      "the north west quarter of Section Thirty three in Township forty seven north of range Ten West in the District of Lands offered for sale at St. Louis, Mo, containing one hundred and sixty acres"

      Three other Land Patents followed in 1838 and 1840.
