Thanks for the up-date/info, Gary. I've stepped away from my research for a
few weeks. Needed to clear my head. The research addiction is strong....and
time consuming. I'll get back to it soon, and will keep you posted on
anything
I find on my Robert Carson. See if somewhere along the path our lines
connect.
Again, many thanks.
Jenny

Does anyone have information on Alexander Harvey Carson 1650-1718.
My information shows him being born and dying in Ireland. He was married to
Margaret Jane McClinton Wilson.
He was the father of John Carson 1680-1762 who married Sarah Dickey. He
also lived in Ireland.
John was the father of Willliam Carson who married Eleanor McDuff and died
in Iredell Co, NC.
Our lines go back to William.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Ellie Carson

Ellie,
That's a great question! The existence of Alexander Harvey Carson
1650-1718
is based on records that, so far, nobody has been able to produce or prove
to me or any other researcher I've contacted. It seems that name got
created
and posted some time ago, then numerous family trees tied to him without
knowing where he came from. Most postings I've seen are based on prior
postings
that had no source data to support them.
One researcher tried to locate the origin of that Alexander Harvey Carson
"ancestor" and found that researcher in Arizona and contacted him. That
source
researcher who originated that name never replied, according to the person
inquiring. I've never seen any documentation of the existence of an
Alexander
Harvey Carson or his spouse, yet dozens of online family trees connect to
him and his wife, apparently based on an online family tree that was posted
some time ago but has never been proven. Part of the issue seems to be
that
many want to be related to Kit Carson, so they force their family trees to
fit
into that tree with no documentation.
Part of the problem I've noted is that many Carson researchers see those
"official" Carson family trees online and presume those trees are accurate
and
use that data in their own family trees. Yet, many of those initial Carson
family trees (with Alexander Harvey Carson) have no data to support them.
The earliest Alexander Carson names I've found (prior to 1790) appeared in
Lancaster PA, Fayette PA, York PA, Philadelphia PA, Orange NC, Rowan NC,
Iredell NC, Burke NC and Chester SC. The Carson lines in Lancaster PA,
Orange NC,
Rowan NC, Iredell NC, Burke NC and Chester SC may connect, based on
circumstantial findings to date. I speculate that many of these latter
Carson lines
connect to a common ancestor, yet nothing is provable.
This is a challenge, to say the least!

Hi Patricia,
I think Margaret Carson is connected to my Lancaster PA Carson line. The
only Carson household in Guilford was Robert Carson (he shows up on deed
records 1778-1779) who seems to be the Robert Carson who married Margaret
Woods
1755 Lancaster PA. Robert had been in Orange/Caswell in the 1760s. In
Guilford
NC, Robert Carson was a neighbor of Woods and Hannah in-laws of the Carson
lines from Lancaster PA. Some of the Carson, Woods and Hannah families
moved
to Washington TN 1780s. Robert may have moved too (there were numerous
Roberts there), or he may have been in Iredell NC (Roberts there too).
