Willard P. Carr is my gg grandfather. Are you related to Willard? I have been trying to find his parents for years. The "Carr Familt Record" by Edson I. Carr, 1894, mentions Willard but I think it is full of mistakes. In the book it mentions that Carrie, his wife, died and he remarried. Willard died in 1899 and Carrie died in 1916.
