Carson Listers:
Can anyone help me identify ie establish a family group sheet and better dates for:
Robert Carson of Dromalagh, Strabane, North Ireland ca 1675...also associated with Hugh
Davey, Jr.
I know he had sons Samuel and Andrew
and son-in-law Rev John Maxwell (died 1763) his wife is Rose Carson
and son-in-law Robert Barclay wife is UNKNOWN daughter of Robert (Barclays were linen
merchants with bleach greens near Strabane)
I believe the father Robert and probably sons Samuel and Andrew were prominent merchants
in Baltimore (business partner with Mr Mitchel) and may also have traded in the
Charleston, Cecil Co, Md and Reading, Penn area.
Names are sometimes spelled CARSAN.
