Thank you for taking the time to post such a comprehensive reply. As you suggest, I'll look in Arnold's in the hope of finding some positive evidence. It seems that there was some confusion over this family's records in mid 18th century Rhode Island, not helped by the possibility that parts of Tiverton were in Massachusetts.
The name Elizabeth Aylesworth appears in some records that I have seen, but nothing conclusive. However, I am confident that Peleg Carr was a direct descendant of Caleb Carr, born 1616 London, and his son Governor Caleb Carr. Prior to 1616 the timeline becomes fanciful, directly linking the family to among others, King Edward I, King Alfred and even back to pre-Roman times in Britain.
