There is a fair bit of information that roams around about Ken "Shorty" Carson, but little has been said in depth or accuracy. Many folks appreciate him, few know him. Little has been written, researched or spoken about this exceptional man and we think that it is high time that this was remedied. Ken was a vital part in the Sons of the Pioneers, even though he was only with them a few short years (1943-1947). The Ken Carson Tribute aims to revive the memory of this wonderful gentleman.

Western Way, Winter edition: contains Ken Carson article on page 34
In 1979, someone suggested I look Ken Carson up in the New Rochelle phone book. I had been told he was living in that town. I took a chance and as soon as he answered the phone I recognized that beautiful high tenor voice as his. He graciously invited me out to his home on 18 John Alden Road. He and his wife Gretchen couldn't have been nicer. Ken told me about all the Pioneers and Gretchen spoke about how friendly all the wives were, too. I kept in touch with this gentle, warm man for the rest of his life. (Bob Serkey)
