Thanks for the info, just one more if you get the chance, Carson.

CARSON Unknown etymological origin. 13th Century record list it as 'de Carsan', so one could presume that it is territorial. The first syllable 'car' is present in a number of place names in the Scottish Lowlands. It is usually derived from the Brythonic caer meaning 'fort'.
