Carson, president of the Riverton Lime Company.Carson directed the formation of Virginia's recreational parks system, established the state's system of historical road markers, and was instrumental in the creation of the Shenandoah National Park and the Skyline Drive. In 1906, at the age of 36, Carson married Agnes Holladay McCarthy in Richmond. The upcoming marriage provided an impetus for the construction of the Riverton home where the couple would live for the next thirty-six years. The house was called "Killahevlin," after the Irish home of a boyhood friend where Carson had often visited. This estate has now grown into the famous Killyhevlin Lakeside Hotel in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland. Designed by the Washington, D.C., firm of A. B. Mullett and Co., Killahevlin is a distinctive Front Royal landmark. The modified Queen Anne style house contains fine early 20th-century interior woodwork and other arresting architectural detail.

Kit had studied law at the University of Virginia and, in 1893, had gone to work in the Winchester legal firm of Richard Evelyn Byrd. For many years, the Carson family enjoyed a friendly and fruitful relationship with the Byrds and, through them, with Virginia's Democratic Party. Will Carson served for thirty years on the Democratic State Central Committee (1910-1940), and his work with the Conservation and Development Commission was highly praised by the press and public, despite a controversy over his highly personalized management of its programs.
