Here are some notes for Adam Cart, father of Conrad Cart. Hope it is interesting to you. John Hoff III also says that there was a Carrie Carte who he thought was now dead. She lived in Charleston, SC. She was descended from Washington Taylor Carte and Sarah Francis Jarrett. He had her paper showing the Cart descendency; but not the Jarrett. She has more info on the Jones lines; however. Assuming he is still around, we could probably get ahold of that information, if we need it. She evidently has Adam's father as Johann Lenhard Karg. She has him b. in 1720 in Mannheim, Germany. He is not sure where she got this information and seems to distrust it. She has Johann Lenhard Karg's father as Leonhardt Karg, who married in 1715 in Albisheim in the Rhineland-Pfaltz to Magdalena Meyer. John says this record appears in the German IGI; but doesn't know what proof there is that Leonhardt Karg is the father of Johann Lenhard Karg. He seems to think she may have simply put the information together, without proof. He says he thinks there is still no proof that the family comes from the Mannheim area. [That was in 1997. He might have an update by now. The information he has sent is from the LDS Ancestral File. Name variations: Karg, Kart, Karrigh, Karch, Cart, Carte 1779 Living in Douglas Twp., Phila. Co.
