I am not sure how I am connected to Mary yet. There is a James Carson b. 1795 in Grayson that is a brother to my Daniel Carson b.1790. They came from NC to VA. I did find some info. on Mary on Ancestry, her father is Alexander Carson b.1769 Loray, NC and Mother is Margaret Lnu. Alexander Carson is the son of Wm Carson and Elanor McDuff who are the parents of Kit Carson. I believe my Daniel Carsons mother was an Atkins.
