    I take from a newspaper of the time the following:

    "Drowned, 24th Aug, 1818, below Louisville, Kentucky, James Carr, Esquire, and his daughter, aged nine years. He was descending the Ohio with his wife and family, with an intention to settle in the west. His daughter fell overboard, and in his attempt to save her they both sunk to rise no more. Mr. Carr was formerly a member of Congress from Maine, and more recently a merchant in Baltimore."
