Carson was born sometime between 1820-30 in either Buncombe or Haywood NC or possibly Greene or Washington Co in eastern TN. He was a son of Ambrose Carson born 1798 Greene or Washington Co TN and grandson of David Carson born c1760-65 possibly Dauphin PA or maybe NC. Ambrose was a brother of Samuel Carson (my 3g grandfather). The families were living in Haywood Co NC in 1830. At that time, Catherine Carson, widow of David #1, deeded some cattle to two of her young grandchildren including David M. Carson (Ambrose son) and Catherine Carson (Samuel's daughter age 1 or so). I'm guessing that David M. was a boy at the time. Does anybody have hints on this David M? I've seen a David Maxwell Carson born 1824 (Greene TN) and wonder if that might be this David. Thanks, Gary Carson
