Second of twin daughters to Jos. N and Margaret (Davies) Carner. Attended Little Rock Central High School before entering college (1st) California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland Calif, later receiving a B.F.A. from the College of Art at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. Showed professionally for a few years before changing career paths to become a business/systems analyst and architect. Worked around the country, mostly in the Southeast United States, until retirement. Then moved back to Little Rock.
I've been dabbling in genealogy and history for decades. Captured as much as was available in 15 boxes of family papers, documents, and photographs before donating those to state archives. Now working on filling in blanks with the help of genealogists and cousins online.
I have some mysteries to solve and some confidence to improve, particularly with Davis lineages and marriages from 18th century Derby, New Haven, CT area. Likewise working on Lower genealogy, Fairchilds from Connecticut and New York. Some other names that I am looking for particular help for are: (In United States or early colonies): Nodine, Cummins, Price, White (Eastern Europe/Austria-Hungary): Karner, Lukacs, Nagy, Peto

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.

Yes, Arkansas is feeling a bit neglected as of late.
Thanks for the reminder.

And there is also the Southern Colonists, Southern Pioneers, in other words... something for everyone.
Want to say, though, that I really like the idea of open, free, world-connected genealogy with some rigor behind the research.
We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.
