PATTERSONS IN NC & TN

Dalena,
My 4g grandfather David Carson of Buncombe and Haywood Co NC was executor of Samuel Patterson's will in 1815 (he died without children apparently).David's wife Catherine may have been a Patterson according to some Patterson researchers.They speculate Samuel Patterson's father was Matthew and he had a brother named Matthew (and sisters Phoebe and Sarah) based on names in his will.
David Carson lived in eastern TN 1785-1799 then in Bunbombe 1800-1810 then Haywood NC.They named a daughter Jane (Virginia Jane Carson).There was a James Patterson in Greene/Washington TN that may be connected to the ones in NC (assuming Catherine was a Patterson that is).
Maybe your Jane Patterson in 1790 Buncombe is connected.
