Hi List, Is anyone on the list researching the J.T. Carson family? I've located an obituary for an old lady who was previously a slave of the Carson family. I would like to be certain of her last name before posting her obituary online. I'm assuming most likely it would be Carson. Does anyone have access to the 1900 or 1910 Taylor Co. Census and if so would you please check to see if she's listed? Her husband's first name was Hudson. The obituary is listed below. Thanks, Carla Miles The Butler Herald Thursday, September 19, 1918 Page Five Aunt Hager, a good, old family servant of the Carsons, and having been owned in the slavery times by the family of Major J.T. Carson, died and was buried at Reynolds Tuesday evening at 4 o'clock. She was ever faithful and devoted during the sad and trying times of the sixties and even since the war her loving interest in our family will always be a bright spot in our memory. We feel like Hager has gone where all good negroes go, and may her children honor and revere her holy name and call her blessed. She was nicely laid away by the side of Hudson, her husband, on a little mound just north of Reynolds, near her home. It was my last tribute to her memory to attend her funeral. J.T. Carson
