OK--now I have a better idea of what time frame we are talking about. I have your family
in my database, but I have as yet to figure out how William Carson Sr. (1802-1870, your
progenitor, and married to Lydia Crawford) was related to my Walter Carson (1758-1834).
Born in York co., PA, Walter and family moved to Camden district, SC in 1780; they moved
again to Rutherford co., NC ca 1781, where they left part of their adult family; and one
last time Walter and part of his family moved on to Jennings co., IN in 1815. So it seems
there are several connections, it is 'simply' a matter of tracing them down and
documenting them.
