This is interesting as my great grandfather was Charles Jefferson Carson, born in South
Carolina. He is buried in Toliver Cemetery in Comanche Co., Texas (which borders Hamilton
& Erath counties). Family has always been told that the J. Carson buried next to him
is one of his brothers and that his full name was James.

I have done research on this family. I do not know who the
parents of James Carson are. I do know that Mary A. Carson
was Mary A. Gilmore when James Carson married her. Mary was
the widow of Stephen Gilmore. He died in Greene Co., MO,
in 1864/1865. When James Carson married Mary Gilmore, she
brought several children to the marriage with the last name
of Gilmore. Mary's maiden name was Wardlow or Wadlow. You
can find Stephen Gilmore and Mary A. Wadlow/Wardlow in
RootsWeb or
Ancestry.com. I can give you information on
Armsted Carson, if you are interested.
I personally know a cousin of yours. He and his wife
live in Oregon. He descends from the Thomas C. Carson
that is listed in the 1870 Federal Census.
James and Mary Carson moved to Erath Co., TX. They might
have died in Erath Co.. The son they were living with
moved to another county in Texas, Palo Pinto possibly.
James and Mary Carson were not in the household of their
son in the 1910 Federal Census.
I hope this helps.
