Who is the Dabney Carr that married his cousin Betty Carr? I do not have a date or any
other info at this point. I came across the entry in a copy at
Genealogy.com for the
Colonial Virginia Source Book: Marriages of VA residents Vol. I, Part II, Surnames C-D,
page 25.
It is listed as:
Dabney Carr married his cousin Betty Carr 5V441
Dabney Carr who married Martha Jefferson is also listed on the same page. Are these 2
different Dabney Carrs or was Dabney married twice?
I am curious because in an early history for St. Clair Co., IL in a biography that
mentions my ancestor Joseph Carr it says that his father was said to be Dabney Carr who
was an immigrant from Ireland. I am just trying to tie up some loose ends and rule out any
erroneous information.
