Hi Linda, I got your second email but not the first. Do you know where in PA your
Carson's came from? Mine are from Washington Co PA. There is some history written
about my Carson's so I was able to trace the family through that. Have you found any
death certificates for your Carson's? Sometimes they will give more info, if they are
available.
Michelle

Hi, Michelle - Thanks for your email about the Carsons of Kansas via Indiana. I have
Carsons born PA then moving to Wabash Co IN in 1840s/50s: sibs Robert Carson 1827-1880,
Sarah Jane Carson 1833/4/5 to 1904, and Ellener Carson abt 1815-1870 (insane, per census).
The mother of these three is possibly Catharine McCutche(o)n Carson 1776 PA to abt 1867
Wabash Co. I have nothing back further, but hope to find out more. Catharine was
"wife of R. Carson", per her tombstone; I think she was born in Washington Co
PA; Sarah Jane and Robert b Franklin Co PA; I don't know what county poor Ellener was
born in.
Y0ur name is very familiar to me from the internet, and I am wondering whether we may have
corresponded previously. I am happy to share all of my information.
Best wishes, Linda Abbott Tracy
