Hi,
I am seeking information about my ancestor, Margaret Carson, who was born February 14,
1809 in Donaghcloney, County Down, Ireland. Her parents were David Carson and Mary (maiden
name unknown, though I believe she died in 1847). I think her father, David, had at least
two brothers: Charles and William. Margaret had at least one sibling, David, who was born
in 1811.
I say "I think" because, while I have found some records (in the same area where
Margaret was born) for these siblings, Carson is a common name, and I cannot be positive
that these Carsons are "my" Carsons.
Margaret Carson married Joseph Archer on August 18, 1835 in Dromore Parish, Down. She had
6 children, one of whom was James Archer, my great-great-great grandfather, born in 1835.
She died on October 31, 1899 in Bandbridge, County Down.
Is Margaret a familiar person to anyone? Does anyone have an suggestions where next I
should research? Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Meredith
