I wonder if it's just coincidence that Carvill Hynson CARSON (1830-1911)
married Sarah Frances GEER (1834-1918) in Baltimore MD on 24 May 1855.
Sarah was the dau of a noted Methodist Episcopal minister, John Avery
GEER/GERE (1799-1874). Carvill was the son of David CARSON (1785-1852)
and Sarah Tilden HYNSON (1793-1889); all of Baltimore, although I blieve
the GEERs were originally from New England.
