Hi Don,
Josette Maxwell is an expert on the PA to NC Maxwell - Carson lines. She
and I have traded findings for some time, and she has a ton of data. My Carson
line from Lancaster PA had in-laws that were next door to in-laws of her
Walter Carson line down in Rutherford NC 1780s yet no provable family link has
been found so far between our Carson lines.
Findings and DNA results show my Carson line was in or links to individuals
in Lancaster, Washington and Cumberland PA; New Castle DE; Orange, Caswell,
Rowan, Iredell, Rutherford, Buncombe, Haywood, Macon and Jackson NC;
Washington/Greene TN; Abbeville, Craven and Sumter SC; Gilmer, Habersham, Rabun,
Union, Cass GA; and Barbour AL.
My direct Carson lines then went to TX by 1870 and CA.
Please keep me posted on anything you find.
Thanks,
Gary Carson
