I also have a line of Carrs from Ireland !! I am not sure, and lack of documentation. All
my searches have led me to a Thomas Carr born abt 1768 Ireland. He was married abt 1812 to
Lucinda Atwater b. abt 1775 Conneticut. i have the 1850 census of New York, Madison,
Deruyter>>
Soloman Stephens age 30 NY
Susan Stephens age 35 NY
Andrew Sornburger age 63 Germany ?
Thomas Carr age 82 Ireland
Lucinda Carr age 75 Conneticut
i also found another family tree on FAMILY TREE MAKER, the tree from Paul and Barbara
Brown of Rochester Hills, Michigan. I have found most of my mothers ancestors in this
tree. I have also found a reference about Thomas Carr in a book By Henry Breed ,( I do not
remember the name of the book, something about Quakers in Deruyter, i can not find my
notes)
I believe that Thomas had five children with Lucinda
(1) Patience Deborah Carr b. April 1813 and died Aug 1813 (2) Deborah Carr b. May
1814
(3) James Valentine Carr b. 1816
(4) Jane M. Carr b. Mar 1819
(5) William J. Carr b. June 1821
Deborah married a Soloman Maine. William married a Sarah Sornburger. I do not think that
Jane ever Married. James married Sarah Guidian Smith.
1850 census Michigan, Lenawee, Dover>>
