from Merrily Lawson:
Civil War Service: Enlisted as a Pvt at Chandlerville, Illinois, on 28 Feb 1862
in the 33rd Illinois Infantry, Company K. Mustered out on 24 Nov 1865 at
Vicksburg, Mississippi.

From The Nooksack Sentinel of 20 Dec 1928:
I. B. Carman passed away at the family home yesterday, December 19, at
10:30 a. m., after an illness of five weeks with diabetes. The passing away of
Mr. Carman had made the honor roll of old timers smaller, and many in Sumas and
Nooksack will miss his presence from their ranks. He was born in Springfield,
Illinois, on September 25, 1848, and celebrated his eightieth birthday a week
ago. He was raised in Illinois and lived for some time in Missouri and Nebraska
before coming to Nooksack 39 years ago, where he was active in the building of
the older buildings here and in Sumas.
Of a former marriage [Melisa Towns] he was the father of seven children and
was later married to Katherine E. Bulmer on July 4, 1892, in Nooksack, and
leaves to mourn his loss his wife, one daughter, Mrs. Margaret Johnson, of
Sumas, and two sons, John W. of Klamath Falls, Oregon, and Thomas B., of
Nooksack, fourteen grandchildren and twenty-two great-grandchildren. Funeral
services will be conducted at the Advent Christian church next Sunday, December
23, at 10:30 p. m., and interment will be made in the Nooksack cemetery.
