Agnes. Walter is first listed on tax records in Chester Co. Pa in 1729 in the same city as Samuel Carson (first listed tax records Chester CO. Pa 1724) m. Jane Patterson. It is proven that Samuel and Walter are blood relatives, either cousins or brothers. Walter and Agnes had another son, WIlliam, who "went to the Carolinas" before John and Mary whom I've never found. THey also had a son proven circumstantially named Walter who married Mary Carson, daughter of Samuel m. Jane Patterson. Walter Carson (son) moved to York Co. SC along with several of the children of Samuel m. Jane Patterson. A male descendent of Samuel m. Jane Pattersson has submitted a YDNA kit. I'm looking for a male descendent of John Carson m. Mary ? MCFarland to submit a YDNA kit. Know any? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
