Message Board Post:
I am looking for the parents of Almira or Elmira Carson. She was born on March 10, 1820
in Ohio, and married to John Henry Welch in Newtown, Fountain County on May 28, 1836.
Since James Carson is the head of the only Carson family listed in Fountain County in both
the 1830 and 1840 census, I am pursuing that as a lead, and would like to know if anyone
has more information. Also, Elmira/Almira had a twin named Elvira who died, according to
family lore, when she was 16. That would have been near the time Elmira/Almira was
married. Anyone know anything about this? You can email me personally as well as posting
here.
