I have traced wife's family back to Uriah CARSON born either in 1743 or 1746
in Guilford county, NC with no parents listed (IGI files). Recently received
info that Uriah may be William Uriah Carson, son of William CARSON (1715,
Ireland) who is the grandfather of "Kit" CARSON. Looking for source info
that makes this link. William (1715) Carson's father is Alexander Harvey
CARSON (c. 1680's) who's wife's name is unknown (to me anyway). William
(1715) married Eleanor Ailsa McDuff in 1753 according to my information but
people who link William Uriah to William (1715) have seven children born
between Uriah and Lindsey CARSON (Kit's father) who is born in 1754. All
these children born before the marriage date indicate a problem with the
marriage date or suggest another wife for William. Anybody with info may
contact me at leobasten(a)juno.com. Willing to share my Carson data.
