Dear Carsons and decendents,
I'd like to share some information about my CARSON line as it crosses the
Atlantic in 1849 during the potato famine. The compiler of the history was
John F. LAIRD who expressed his indebtedness for facts to Rev. Caleb Shera
LAIRD of Dublin, Dr. John LAIRD of Sligo, Robt. Trimble, of Swanlinbar,
Ireland.
Catherine LYTLE married Jason CARSON (a relative of Sir Edward CARSON). They
lived in Farmannagh Co., Ireland. They had 6 children. 3 were born in Ireland
-Mary Jane, John D. and William. The next 3 were born in the USA - Wesley,
James Shera and Elizabeth Catherine b.1860.
They were decendents of the LAIRDS and the GLOVERS - I have the tree - and I
think the SHERAS farther on back which I'd love to know about! In studying
the history, it shows they were strong Methodists and many were ministers
including Rev. Jason CARSON and his son William
mentioned above.
In the USA the family (eventually)settled in IL and IN and their daughter
Elizabeth Catherine married Dr. Wm. Noble NANNEY b.1853 in Warrick Co IN and
later of Evansville, IN.
I'd sure like more info about where they landed in this country and how long
before they made their way to IN.
Hope you find this of interest and I'd be happy to supply the other children's
names and who they married if this would help with your search.
Shera Thompson

Canada, then to Wisconsin with Norwegian wife, Renda (Rinda/Miranda). Located
