You've got the Samuel Carsons mixed up - there were several around. Samuel Carson m. Jane Patterson was on the tax rolls of Chester Ct. PA in 1725, town of Londonderry, and subsequently married Sarah Reece Wallace. The had ten children, some of whom went to York SC and others stayed in PA/Maryland (Elizabeth, Hannah, Jane, Agness, Walter, Margaret, Rebeca William, Mary and Francis). Well researched line. There was a Samuel Carson in York Ct. married Jean ? and had at least one daughter, Elizabeth b. 7 Dec 1790. In that part of York that became Adams Ct. PA, there was a Samuel Carson who married Jeanet ??. They had children David, William, a girl who married George Daborn, Mary who married John, Elizabeth and Samuel. They lived in Mt. Pleasant Twp. There was a Samuel Carson in Philadelphia who died 1778. The Samuel Carson m. Jane Paterson/Sarah Wallace was related by blood to Walter and Agness Carson who show up on the tax list of Londonderry in 1729; could have arrived at the same time as Samuel. We have a letter which establishes the blood relationship but doesn't provide clues as to whether they are brothers or cousins. Note that Samuel names children Walter and Agness. Samuel's son Walter marries Mary, daughter of Walter Carson on the tax list.
