    3. Re: SCARR / CALVERT; YKS,ENG; 1700-1900 Dear Becky: I'm Yorkshire born and raised(Goole). My mom, now 91 lives here in Washington St.too. She was born and raised in Blacktoft, on the River Ouse between Goole and Hull. I have researched her line last year. Her mother was Ada Carr, born out of wedlock to Sarah Ann Carr in 1884.Sarah Ann later married A Mr Ripley. The Carrs were in Blacktoft from about 1810, the earliest marriage I found- Robert Carr m. Catherine Margrave, Nov. 24 1783 at Airmyn( near Goole) The Margraves I traced back to York. Their son Joseph, married Sarah Smith in Airmyn in 1810. Interestingly, there were Scarrs in Blacktoft then, and still. are. I am in touch with a second cousin who lives near there. The E-mail address I prefer is joyduval@juno.com since I may not sign up with aol after this month. I belong a group in England called the Boothferry Family and local History Group . There are lots of Carrs on the South side of the Rivers Ouse/Humber -in Adlingfleet, Brigg, etc. The LDS (Mormon church) Family history Centre computer data banks have lots of them. Does any of this help? >Was Carr a misprint for Scarr? Joyce Duval joyduval@aol.com (Joyduval)
