Hi Cindy,
Here is a link to the Carson DNA project site. From there, there click on the "recruitment" link for the DNA testing service's site.
http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/c/carson/index.html
When was your David Carson born and where does he show up (counties, etc.) and when? Also, what were his childrens' names? I've been trying to sort of the Davids for some time.
My David Carson born 1755-65 (wife Catherine born c1770) was in Washington and/or Greene TN until around 1799, then moved to Buncombe NC.
Several of the Carson families in eastern TN 1790s had moved there together from Lancaster PA by way of Orange/Caswell NC. There was 1 David Carson in 1787 Washington Co TN (David Sr. who married Sarah Woods 1753 Lancaster PA). By 1796, there were 4 Davids, then by 1799, there was just one left.
Next door in Greene Co TN 1787 a David Carson, John Carson Sr. and widow Sarah were executors of a William Carson's will. Williams refers to David and John in his will as "my well beloved friends" which suggests they were not his sons or brothers. A David Carson appears in 1791 and 1792 Greene TN tax lists. A David appears in Jefferson Co TN 1794-1795 on juries (Jefferson was formed from Greene in 1792). A David appears in Blount juries in 1797 and 1798. A David reappears in Jefferson in 1800 on tax lists.
Below are the Washington TN tax lists by year, as best as I can determine from records.

Here's the site for the Pedigrees of those who have taken the test. There's more info on the discussion boards too. Feel free to post your line as well. You can look at the results page to see how closely some of the lines are related. So far, most of the lines are connecting prior to 1750 in Ireland/Scotland and the paper trail is not there.

In recent correspondence I received word that the KYDOT is planning to
widen the highway adjoining the above cemetery. The tombstones for
William Carson, b 17 Feb 1772; d 1 Jan 1856 and his wife Elizabeth, b
16 Feb 1790; d 6 Aug 1835, have been moved to the East End Cemetery in
Cadiz, KY.
Interested folks should contact the genealogist at KYDOT.

Eugene,
There was a David McCarson family living a few households away from my David
Carson in 1800 Buncombe County. My line was always plain Carson.
However, my David Carson had a grandson named "David M. Carson"....speculate
the "M" stood for Mathew, and uncle's name.
It gets confusing. It sounds like somebody in Scotland that was a son of
Carson started using the "Mc" prefix. It's redundant in a way to be a "son" and
a "Mac" or "Mc", assuming those designated a male child. I would guess the
surname is more recent.

Hi,
This email was a follow up to a previous email where we were discussing
Carsons in Ireland and Ayrshire, Scotland, who immigrated to Canada in the
early 20th C.

Shirley,
My gr-gr-grandfather was named John Carson. I'm wondering if this
could possibly be the same John you mention as the son of your John?
My gr-grandfather's name was William Carson. So, those two names fit.
My John was born in 1851 and my William in 1880. Can you tell me
more about yours?
Thanks,
Steve
