Migration of the De caryer family

An examination of early immigration records and passenger ship lists revealed that people bearing the name De caryer arrived in North America very early: John Carrier, who came to Maryland in 1662; Jean Carrier, who is on record in Montreal in 1660; Charles Ignace Carrier, an Acadian, who arrived in South Carolina in 1756.
