Well fellow Carson's, I have finally made a big break thanks to a very nice
lady in Tacoma. Cynthia has found my lost relative. Here's the scoop.
John Edmonston Carson and Mary Elizabeth Mc Creath lived in Tacoma WA where
they owned their own home. Sending for deed. They had 7 children and five of
them were listed on the 1900 census at the National Archive in WA. John was
born in Pennsylvania of Pennsylvanian parents, Nov. 1855 and his occupation
was Boilermaker. I'm going to assume that he belonged to the union.
Mary was born in ILL to Scottish parents, Jul 1862. Her and John were
married 16 years at this census and the names of the five children are
Jennie F. b Nov. 1886 in Kansas, James R. b Aug. 1889 in Iowa, Helen b Aug
1894 in New Mexico, Parke Edward (my grandfather) b Mar. 1896 in New Mexico
and Samuel. b Jul 1899 in WA.
Then this nice lady is going to the address's and take photo's. She also may
have found another child we have to check this out. She found a James
McCreath b. 1865 married to Olive Virginia Roberts b Sept. 21, 1869 ILL.
Her parents are James William Roberts and Mary Elizabeth Kemper. Olive also
was married a second time to a Norris. There is more but this is what is
pertinent to the Carson's.
Do you save this information somewhere and put it on a web site?
If so let me know and I'll be more detailed.
