Hi Allison,
The John Carson whose descendant matches my DNA was born 1747/1749 and
arrived 1767 on the Earl of Donegal in SC. He was the only Carson on the
ship. A Mary Harbison (a bunch of Harbisons were on the ship) connects with
John Carson in Chester SC (neighbors on Rocky Creek) on several records. In
1800, she leaves her land her son Alexander Carson. Alexander Carson
witnessed John Carson's will in 1822 Hardin Co KY. Mary Harbison may be a
mother or aunt of John.
The connection between my line and Uriah's line was likely quite a bit
earlier....maybe a 4g-6g grandfather based on the DNA results (similar but not
a super close match).

Hi Gary,
I have no idea as to when John was born I only had the date for Uriah and
they were brothers. Supposedly they arrived and went their separate ways so
since I have never seen a date on John so he has been hard to find.
Uriah was my 5 great grandfather so I have only been able to trace down
from him.
Have you been able to find ship records for when John arrived in SC?
Since they were brothers then that could be way the DNA from Uriah's is a
similar match to you.
Thanks,
Allison
