Kerry,
I have a Townsend Carman who is close, being born about 1808. I don't have
anything else on him but here is his family. He may not be the right one
but if he is there are a lot of clues for research. I have more generations
of descendents for his brother John if you think they would help. I have
two other Townsends in another branch but they were born in 1768 and 1826.
I will include their lineage below too.
Please let me know if you think we have a match.
