Hi Viv , There is a prominent family of Carsons in Gosnells. He was a bank manager of the Bankwest (R&I) in Gosnells and there is a street named after them in the Amaroo Cottage(Carson Ave). It seems they have been here for a long time but it might not be long enough. I know Gosnells has a website but not sure what it is. Cheers, Linda Ure -----Original Message----- From: viv carson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, 16 July 2003 15:52 Subject: [AUS-WA] Carson Has any lister with interests in the Carson family been able to trace the ancestors for Alfred Carson who arrived in the swan river colony on 4th June 1831 on board the Sterling .
