I know next to nothing about John P Carr but he most likely was related to Julia Ann Carr, who was the wife of Orville Glover.

Orville B. Glover was born 11 April 1804, Upton, Worcester, MA, the son of David Glover and Tamesin Hall. The family moved to Orleans County, NY where Orville purchased land in the town of Barre in 1833 and 1835. In 1835 he married Julia Ann Carr (1818-1893). He sold the land in 1839 and moved to White Pigeon Prairie, Cass, MI. When Orville died in 1852 he left his widow to raise five children: Harrison, born 1837; Lowell H., born 1839; Jay O., born about 1841 (and mentioned in yesterday's post); Tamerson, born 1843; and William H., born about 1847.
