Ms. Cathy Wright,
I am responding to your message you posted on the general message board.
My great-grandfather, Mr. Carson (Maybe Frank Carson) married my great-mother Ms. Maggie
Mccord in South Carolina. He was a jack-leg preacher and jack of all trade. They had at
least ten chilren. Tressie, Ruth Naomi and Benjjamin were some of the names of her
chilren. Benjamin, the youngest was raised by aunt in D.C.. Tressie moved to Bronx, New
York. She never had children. Ruth Naomi Carson married Mr. John Kirkland Rease (my
grandparents), had two children named Annie and Johnny Mae Rease and raised a
neighbor's son named Rudolph in Bowman, South Carolina.
After the death Mr. Carson, Maggie remarried Mr. Merriwether and moved to Augusta, GA..
Kindly be advised that I am planning to come South Carolina in the summer to meet with The
Historcal Society to give information about our family history and try to complete my
family book.
I pray to God that we are related and we can share information.
