James
Carson b. No. Ireland and wife Rebeccah Hazard. Their son, John Carson b.
1752; d. 1841 NC ; married Rachel M. McDowell d. ca. 1795 she did...Their son
was Joseph McDowell Carson b. JAN 1779 NC; mar..1809 to Rebeccah Wilson b. 20
OCT 1790 NC; d. 13 JUN 1840 NC; he died 20 DEC 1860 NC.
Tench Coxe Carson b. 12 JAN 1810 Rutherford Co., NC mar. 06 OCT 1835 NC; d. 27
APR 1861 in Saluda, NC; mar. Martha Adeline McBee b. 01 MAY 1816 Lincolnton,
NC; d. 26 SEP 1870 at Caesar's Head SC (Now folks this McBee line is connected
to my Austins of Pittsylvania Co., VA and Lunenburg Co., VA earlier in
1750's..) This McBee line goes back to Wm. McBee and wife, Susannah of VA
(Halifax Co.) through their son, Vardry McBee b. 1745 circa; d. 178? (served
as Capt. in Rev. War) and married Hannah Echols. This Vardry McBee gave issue
to a son Vardry McBee b. 19 JUN 1775 SC; mar. 16 AUG 1804 and d. 23 JAN 1864
..wife Jane Alexander b. 01 MAY 1783 NC and d. 13 MAR 1864 SC. If anyone
connects to this Carson line let me know. Also the submitted of this chart in
1976 was a Martha Brunson Guerard of Columbia SC...She was born in 1916 so not
sure if she is still living today...She also has Wilkinson, Oakman, Hay,
Johnson, Mithcell, Smith, Wilkins, Gordon, O'Hear, Breton, Hagood (The Hagood
lines come to GA and married into my Middlebrooks also)...This lady also has
another Carson line of Katherine Carson who married into the Wilson lne from
No. Ireland and NC. Hope to help TXJEAN
I am descended from these Carsons (my grandmother was Rebecca Wilson Carson). The
information I have on them can be found at

After Rachel McDowell's death, John Carson married Mary Moffett and had several
more children, including Samuel Price Carson, who served as a Congressman from
North Carolina and was later the Secretary of State of the Texas Republic.
