Mr. Keith, I saw your inquiry on Frances Carawan, born l82l, who married
William M. Lupton. Frances Carawan Lupton and William M. Lupton are also my
great, great grandparents. They lived their married lives on Goose Creek Island
(Lowland) in now Pamlico County. (then it was Beaufort County). However, the
Frances who married William Lupton was not the daughter of Marcus Carawan. She
was his sister. Marcus was younger than Frances. Marcus did have a daughter
named Frances. (probably named after his sister.) I am related to Frances
through 2 lines. Her older brother, Christopher Carawan, was also my paternal
great, great, grandfather. Christopher, Marcus, and Frances (and several
more) were the children of Benjamine Carawan and Delia White.
Which one of Frances and Williams children did you descend from? My
line is through their son Daniel. I have a great deal of information on this
family. Sounds like you are a distant cousin of mine.
