The companies were based in Hamburg. Edward Carr had his own company around 1905. His sons founded a small shipping company, which had only one vessel, in 1907. But as they didn't succeed, they closed the company in 1910.
The flags were blue, displaying an anchor in bend sinister, a capital "C" in lower fly and a 5-point star in upper hoist. The charges were white in case of Edward carr and yellow in case of his sons.
