I am the descendant of Andrew Carson. His son, Andrew Washington Carson, left Iredell Co
NC and settled in Henry County TN. A cousin still owns the property and the Carson
Cemetery is on the property with A W Carson, his wife, and several generations of
descendants buried there. A male Carson descendant of A W's son took the test for me

Hi Jay and Carson researchers,
The Kit Carson line is in the I haplogroup. A descendant of his line ( his father was
Lindsey Carson born c 1755 of Rowan/ Iredell) and a descendant of Andrew Carson born 1750s
Rowan/Iredell NC match. The other Carson males in the I haplogroup lineages are not a
match to these two. Any link would have to be way back....before 1500.

If your still around I am a 5th Great Grandson of Thomas and Mary Smith Carson. About
half of your info is correct and the other half is a mix up with their son Thomas who also
married a Mary nee Gibson.
The family story of two brothers has never been confirmed but if true the brothers
probably are two who settled in Northern Ohio. There was a Thomas in Lanchaster related to
the one who went to NC Territory present day Ky where Kit was born. But there is no know
verifiable tie from our line to Kits, even though many want to create it.
My self and a 5th cousin whose closest tie is Thomas have matched DNA 35/37 verifying our
lines to Thomas. I am from the line of the second son Thomas, he is from the Son John who
inherited the family farm. Our DNA is Nordic Viking from before Western Surnames were
taken, when they invaded the current day British Isles. 45% of Carson's are from this
"I" DNA, the other 55% are native to the Scotish Clan McPherson and are R type
DNA. This R type is from my understanding that of Kit and the Tonight Shows Johnny Carson.
The link between R and I does not exist for 30,000 years to southern Germany when they
split.
Thomas was not buried at Speers, his Son Thomas was, so were sons William and John and
Daughter Sarah Carson Parker and some grandchildren. Thomas and Mary Smith Carson were
buried along the fence line on their original farm and there grave site was lost to later
family members although the modern family cemetery Maple Creek est 1870 was part of that
original family farm. Their unmarked graves may be there or anywhere in the area. Present
day Interstate 70 runs right through the original farm and where their original home once
stood and is just North of Maple Creek Cemetery. My Grandparents through my 3rd Great
Grandparents are buried there.
I hope this helps you and everyone in the future.
Jay Fred Carson Jr.
