Index to Articles and Photos
This purpose of this page is to help you find articles and photographs posted to the Carson Archives.
Articles about ancestors are listed alphabetically, by family last name, then husband first name, and finally, if there are any duplications at that point, by birth date of the husband. This should allow you to find the family you are searching for fairly quickly.
Articles about living family members are listed alphabetically, by first name, or by the topic discussed.
Photographs are harder to group in a meaninful way. If you list them by date, what do you do with the photos where the date is unknown? If you list them by person, which person do you choose if there are multiple people? For now, I've decided to list them in the order they were posted.
If a family, a photograph, or an article about a person is not listed here, it is likely that I simply have not progressed to the point of indexing that article. You can try finding those articles or photos by searching the main Carson Archives page. To do so, click on the "Carson Archives HOME Page" link on the left side of this page, then use the Search This Blog box in the upper left hand corner of that page. If the family is not found with that Search, then chances are I have not yet written anything about them on the Carson Archives site. You might still discover what you are looking for by browsing my Rootweb.com family tree (see "Family Trees" in the left hand column of this page).
