Hi cousin! I descend from Uriah Jr too. We're Uriah, Uriah, John Harrison, John Washington, Albert Eugene, Eugene, Kit, and me! So, I DO descend from Kit Carson! Ha! There is a myth/rumor that Uriah Sr was William Uriah and a mysterious son of William of Ireland/Iredell, NC who married Eleanor McDuff. You will find this information EVERYWHERE but no one has any source to back it up! Apparently a cousin has a Bible where Uriah Sr was written as William. This was a Bible written in after the fact and I haven't seen it. Some have Uriah Sr married to Mary Ballard and again this appears to be a mistake. He married Mary Cook, a Quaker from Pennsylvania. He later was received by the Quakers. When he died, Mary married Caleb Sumner. Uriah did not have any other wives after Mary Cook. Would love to hear more of your line, I'm always looking for more Uriah Carson descendants!! Please email me at [email protected] and any other Uriah descendants, it's been awhile since I've talked to a bunch of you.

As you say - it's all very confusing! I am researching a part of the Carson family that eventually settled in Scotland. I have William Carson whose parents are Joseph Carson and Mary Irwin. William was married to Ellen McIlwraith and I just recently found out that they spent seven years in America, between 1880 and 1887. They had five sons - Alexander, William Thomas, Marvel (or Irwin), Joseph and Samuel. In the Glasgow Poor Relief records it shows that William made a claim for help to pay for Alexander and William to attend school. On that record one son is called Marvel but on the death certificate in 1889 he is noted as Irwin. Both William Thomas and Marvel are shown as born in America but no details of where. Does any of this make any sense to anyone? Mary

Hi Josette, It's great to hear from you. You've done tons of valuable and factual research. I had noticed a message posting of yours on NC research that listed a David Carson on the Rowan 1762 tax rolls. Do you have that actual listing? I can't find it so far. Here are the circumstantial findings related to my David (nothing is proven here) as pertains Rowan and Rutherford. Again, nothing yet proven. In 1759 Rowan, William Carson's will was adm by David Black. William mentions brother Robert, cousin William, daughter Susannah (not yet of age). In 1766 Rowan, Samuel Withrow married Jane Gray with George Black and John Carson bondsment (inlaws). 1779 Rowan, William Carson and James McCord and a nearby Robert Carson had land grants and deeds near Withrow's Creek. Around 1788 (probably NC), my David Carson married his wife Catherine born c1770 who is believed to be a daughter of Matthew Patterson of Rutherford NC (these Pattersons are later showing up in Haywood NC). In 1785 Rutherford, Matthew Patterson was next door to John Withrow, an inlaw of John Carson who married Mary Withrow 1780 Rutherford. In 1787 Rutherford, Matthew Patterson's land grant in Rutherford joined William McGaughy's improvements. In 1790 Rutherford, John Withrow's deed to John Carson was witnessed by Alex and W. McCaughy. The land was next to George Black, Nevins and others. This William was a neighbor of Matthew Patterson. In 1790, Matthew Patterson had 2 adult males and 3 females in his household. In 1795 Iredell, a David Carson witnessed a deed between Benjamin Asbury and Richard Wooton (this David is not on any tax lists or other deeds). In 1802 Rowan, Sarah Caron is neighbors of James Nevins/Nivens. In 1806 Rutherford, Robert Carson' will (listed in the index of loose papers) mentioned widow Margaret and 4 children. Names mentioned in the same file were Margaret Sr, Margaret Jr, Samuel, David, Andrew, Mary and Martha. In 1815 Haywood NC, David Carson administered Samuel Patterson's will which mentioned Sarah Owens (believed to be a sister), Samuel Patterson Owens, Elijah Owens, Samuel Patterson (nephew), Phoebe Dunn. This Samuel is believed to be a brother or son of Matthew Patterson in Rutherford (there was an older and younger Matthew). Earlier, Samuel had received a land grant on Puzzle Creek next to Matthew. In the 1815 Iredell tax list, Sarah Owens was on the same page with a bunch of Pattersons (Joseph, Uriah, Jordan), and William Carson and Christopher Houston. that connect to those in Haywood. She is possibly the one mentioned in Samuel Pattersons will in 1815. In 1816 Rowan, John Carson dec'd estate was divided between son John and daughter Jane. The land was on Withrow's Creek. Adjacent lands included William Nevins dec'd. In 1792, Lindsey Carson from Rowan/Iredell is in Madison KY with John Carson whose descendant is an exact match with my 37 marker YDNA (not sure what that means yet). (This finding is new...not researched yet). Joseph Patterson is on the same page with John Carson and Matthew Patterson in the 1790 Rutherford NC census. Back in 1772 Guilford NC, Joseph Patterson married a Rebecca Carson who is thought to possibly connect to my Carson line (circumstantial). In 1820 Haywood NC, John Chastain married Nancy Withrow. John is a cousin of Chastains that married daughters of my David Carson (Elijah Chastain married Catherine Carson and his son James Chastain married Jane Carson). Nancy Withrow was supposedly born 1803 Rutherford (family trees online are not clear as to her parents).

Could you tell me what evidence you having connecting your David Carson to the Rutherford Carsons? John Carson of Rutherford m. Mary (some say McFarland) is in my family. His parents were Walter and Agnes Carson of Menallen Twp. in what became Adams Ct. PA. It's a well researched line.

I just have a footnote to add in addition to sharing info. I am sure that everyone knows that being completely addicted to genralogy is not only a devoted love for family, but it COSTS MONEY. I don't mind sharing my info to a point, but some people just take it, add their name and pretend it was their diligence and money that brought it to the surface. please people, and you know who you are, don't do this. It will come back to bite you. Regards Dorla Stork

Dear Carson family experts, There is a lot of intermarriage in my Maxwell family with several Carsons, Robertson, Fulton from late 1700s to early 1800s in Lancaster and Chester co, Pa...i know alot went to NC and Ky/Tenn ca 1800..... I am especially interested in the Elizabeth Carson ("supposedly" a daughter of Lindsay Carson of NC????)- she married William Jesse Maxwell and moved to Tenn early 1800s....see below link... If you will go to my PERSONAL webpage http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=donmaxwell&id=I06185 (search by typing in Fulton and Robertson) and the Maxwell DNA webpage esp http://hometown.aol.com/dnamaxwell/myhomepage/dp59428.htm You will see all of these Maxwell Carson men/women are "closely" related- I just dont how...I feel the secret to unlock my Maxwell ancestors is to look at the allied families of Carson, Fulton and Robertsons....because we have exhausted all known resources!!!! Is there anyone i can teamup with and compare my VOLUMINOUS Maxwell family notes with? thanks Don Maxwell Donald P.

Sadly, this happens all too often. Sometimes what is intended only for someone to consider or study is all over the Internet before the person realizes it. I recently spent an hour with a woman who was trying to decide if she wanted to give her years of tedious expensive research to a relative who wrote and said I would like all of your research and info. She and her husband had spent hours studying records and putting the facts together. I do not know her final decision but two days later she found on Ancestry some of her earlier work that she had given him. There is just too much of this. I am currently working on a line that comes into my Carson line about 1900. It is a large family with the father having nearly 25 children by at least two marriages. He has one daughter before 1800, 6 children between 1800-1810, 6 between 1810-1820, 6 to 8 in the next 10 years and three in the following five years. We have found at least three children that died in infancy. Now I have spent hours going over census to reconstruct the ages and sex of the children in his family. We have no will or probate only one land record to date. We are working on theory. We have candidates for some of the positions but will probably never find all of them. I did this with my early carson family and it took 20 years to prove the theory.. My early Carson ancestor is Samuel and Mary Carson of Cortland County, Ny arriving in NY in about 1796 to pick up the bounty land claim of his wife's dead uncle. According to some of the children's naturalization application, they came with a boat load of family. Where is the rest of the family?This family too claims to be related to Kit Carson, the frontiersman. Cousins get upset when I tell them no proof. Then again I usually answer yes and clarify it. You see my paternal grandfather's name was Kit Carson. He was not Christopher but Kit.

In genealogy, you do have to decide WHY you are doing it. Do you want to keep what you have found to yourself or do you want to pass it on? It's a decision all of us have to make. I do a lot of work, and when a distant cousin of mine takes my work and mixes it all up, I too get irritated, but then I think of all the distant cousins who take my work and add what they have to it and we have a bigger and better thing because of it. There will always be those who don't understand, but I try to focus on those who do. Is your glass half empty or half full? I too descend from Kit Carson, he's my father (not a Christopher)! :) Best regards, Stephanie Carson Feldman

Regarding Agnes Boone. There is no record. She is apparently a figment of someone's imagination. The mother of Rebecca Robinson Carson was Elizabeth (possibly Fulton. Two marriages of Rebecca's sisters, her twin Jean or Jane who married James McMullin in Botetourt County, Virginia in 1788 and Sarah who married John Sawyer in 1786 give parents names and James and Elizabeth Robinson and James Robinson respectfully. Also the Will of James Robertson in Shelby County, Kentucky lists his wife's name as Elizabeth. The Will also lists all of the children including Rebecca Carson and her sister Jane Carson the wife of Robert Carson after the death of James McMullin. I have e-mailed the originator of this myth several times asking for documentation. I have gotten no answer. Sadly it is now all over the internet and Elizabeth has been forgotten. I have done extensive research on this family because family tradition, as is the case with many other, claims that Kit Carson was a first cousin to my gg grandfather William Riley Robertson.

Dany, I've found some Rutherford evidence that suggests my David Carson connects to those and the ones in Rowan (circumstantial). John Withrow (Mary Withrow married John Carson) deeded land in Rutherford/Rowan to John Carson. John Withrow in Rutherford (her brother or father..not sure which) was next door to Matthew Patterson in 1782. Matthew is the assumed father of Catherine, wife of my David Carson. Also, Lindsey and Robert Carson from Rowan NC were in Madison Co KY 1792 with a John Carson whose descendant is a perfect DNA match for me. My Carson line seems to connect to New Castle, DE Carsons (and Chester PA possibly) and to Lancaster/York PA Carsons, some of which came down to Rowan and Rutherford. My line went to Orange/Caswell for awhile, then to TN, then back to NC. I'm still sorting this all out. Gary

My David Carson born 1755-65 (wife Catherine born c1770) was in Washington and/or Greene TN until around 1799, then moved to Buncombe NC. Several of the Carson families in eastern TN 1790s had moved there together from Lancaster PA by way of Orange/Caswell NC. There was 1 David Carson in 1787 Washington Co TN (David Sr. who married Sarah Woods 1753 Lancaster PA). By 1796, there were 4 Davids, then by 1799, there was just one left. Next door in Greene Co TN 1787 a David Carson, John Carson Sr. and widow Sarah were executors of a William Carson's will. Williams refers to David and John in his will as "my well beloved friends" which suggests they were not his sons or brothers. A David Carson appears in 1791 and 1792 Greene TN tax lists. A David appears in Jefferson Co TN 1794-1795 on juries (Jefferson was formed from Greene in 1792). A David appears in Blount juries in 1797 and 1798. A David reappears in Jefferson in 1800 on tax lists. Below are the Washington TN tax lists by year, as best as I can determine from records.
