Thelma, Did you get the results back from the YDNA test? If so, did you have a match and are they posted on the Carson DNA website?
There are 4 exact matches in my YDNA group (all are in the I or "Nordic" haplogroup). Geographically, these Carson ancestors came first to to PA, DE, and SC then some moved to NC, TN and KY initially.

Hi again Cindy,
I just found out that my YDNA results match exactly those of a descendant of Andrew Carson born c1767 (married Elizabeth Hannah Washington Co TN 1790). This particular Carson line is the only one from the Nordic haplogroup, and all are an exact match so far. This Andrew Carson was a son of Moses Carson born c1737 who married Elizabeth Hannah in Lancaster PA. Moses along with William, David and Robert Carson (all born 1730s married 1753-1760 in Paxtang, Lancaster PA) moved together from Lancaster PA to NC 1760s-1770s then to Washington Co TN 1780s (or at least Moses, David and William moved to TN per deeds).
My David Carson ancestor born 1755-65 was a son of one of them (William and David Sr both had sons named David). My David was in eastern TN from 1793-1798 or so. Then he moved back to NC 1799. David Carson (the one in you line) shows up in Blount Co TN 1797. There was also a Little David who shows up in Washington TN c1795 and may be the one who died there in 1811. The older David Sr. seems to have sold his land and left the county.
If you had a male Carson to do the YDNA (even a 12 marker) that might confirm a connection or otherwise. This groups seems to be related.
Thanks,
Gary Carson

Betty (and other Carson researchers),
I'm following up on some earlier discussion about the various PA Carsons. I did the YDNA test a few months ago, and there are now 4 exact matches among Carson male descendants. Three are out of PA and one came directly to SC. Below is a link to the Carson DNA website followed by a description of these 4 Carson lines that match (using my own findings and findings of various other dedicated researchers)

MATCH 1 (my ancestor)
David Carson born 1755-65 probably Lancaster PA died c1828 Haywood NC m. Catherine (last name believed to be Patterson, daughter of Matthew Patterson). Findings suggest David's family moved to NC c1760s, possibly Rowan County, then to Orange/Caswell NC, then to Washington/Greene Co TN by 1781-1784. I think David actually married in Rutherford NC c1788 where Matthew Patterson (his presumed father in law) was living and moved to Washington/Greene TN near parent/siblings c1793 then left TN c1798 to return to NC. David was in the Buncombe and Haywoo NC 1800-1820.
David's probable parents (from Lancaster PA) were William Carson/Margaret McCord (most likely) or David Carson Sr./Sarah Woods (less of a fit for various reasons). Both had sons named David and they moved together to NC then to TN. Robert and Moses Carson who came to TN also apparently connect to William and David Sr. There was also a John Carson and some other Williams.
MATCH 2
Andrew Carson born c1770 Lancaster PA married Elizabeth Hannah 1790 in Washington Co TN. Andrew is listed as a son of Moses Carson and Elizabeth Hannah who married c1763 Lancaster PA. Andrew's mother Elizabeth was a daughter of Andrew Hannah who died 1760 in Lancaster with his children listed in the estate record. Andrew's wife might have been a cousin or a widowed inlaw. Moses and family moved from Lancaster PA to Caswell/Orange by 1770s. William and David from Lancaster PA also moved there.and a Robert, John and Alexander were there earlier. Moses, William, David and possibly Robert's familes moved together to Washington Co TN 1781-1784.
MATCH 3
John Carson born about 1747 in Ireland. John Carson arrived on the Earl of Denegal (from Belfast) on December 10, 1767 when he was 20 and lived on Rocky Creek, Craven District. SC. Among the other passengers were Patrick and Mary Harbison. About 1800 Mary Harbison died leaving her land to "my son, Alexander Carson". John Carson married Elizabeth (LNU). He moved to KY around 1792, living in Fayette, Jessamine counties. He died in Hardin Co, Kentucky. John's will was dated 21 April 1823 and executed 30 Nov 1824, witnessed by an Alexander Carson.
MATCH 4
Thomas Carson born Abt. 1740 in Scotland, and died Jan 16, 1816 in Fallowfield Twp, Washington Co, Pennsylvania. He married Mary Smith Jan 28, 1762 in New Castle Co, Delaware. She was born Abt. 1745 in Scotland, and died in Washington Co, Pennsylvania.
RELATED NOTES:
At this time, my David Carson is believed to be a son of a William Carson/Margaret McCord (most likely), David CarsonSr./Sarah Woods (possible though less likely) or, in a stretch, Robert Carson/Margaret Woods or a John Carson, all from Lancaster. All of these couples married in Paxtang, Lancaster PA 1753-1760 as did Moses Carson and Elizabeth Hannah (parents of Andrew Carson) and moved to NC then most end up in eastern TN together.
For those interested in Kit Carson, the book, "CARSON, Bent, Boggs
Genealogy" by Quantrille McClung, 1962, is probably your best source.

Hi Pat,
The father of Kit Carson was Lindsey Carson born 1754 in Rowan (Iredell) Co
NC. In a 1784 deed in Iredell, Lindsey sold his land inherited from his
father William Carson (deceased) and is referred to as the eldest son of
William.
Some of the other Carsons in the Rowan may connect. Stephanie Carson
Feldman descends from Uriah Carson of Surry. You might find her postings
and email her. We've been trying to sort out these multiple lines for
awhile.
My Carson line seems to be in the area c1760 before going east then west.
Good luck,
Gary Carson

Just found out more about this family. William Thomas was born in Enfield, Conn (I presume this is Connecticut) on 1/11/1882. In the Ellis Island website there is a record of him travelling to New York on 19/4/1920 with his wife, Catherine and sons William Andrew (born Tyrone 3/9/1909) and Wilfred (born Providence, RI, on 10/5/1918.
