Debi,
There is no source for the Margaret Bates that is listed on my copy of the Descendents of
Robert Carson.
I am also curious about the first wife of David b.1741 since she would be my real
GGGGGGgrandmother if family lore is correct in saying that his first wife was the mother
of Robert. With the possiblility of him marrying in either county that he resided it would
be hard to pinpoint the correct David if any marriage records WERE found unless she left a
will which is highly unlikely. This is something we will probably never know.The only
other document that might point to the mother's name is a will left by Robert's
other two siblings from this first wife.
