Yes I'm a descendent of North Cornwall Carharts, now living in Wales. Regardless of
what
Ancestry.com says the name is Celtic, not Germanic! It's actually the name of a
village in North Cornwall, from which we get our surname.
I've traced my family line back to 1790 and found a Carhart family coat-of-arms with a
black griffin on a silver shield.
