to Holly, Richard, me

You need to look at this Eggisland website and not Dick Zieman?s Daniels tree for actual documents on the Giles Carter line. Steve Eggleston is Mary Frances Eggleston's husband who maintains the server. Please note the documents attached to Richard Carter, Lemuel Carter Sr and Lemuel Carter Jr

I think the birth date for Lemuel Carter Sr who dies in Caswell County, is probably more like 1780 ? 82. If we believe the 1850 Census of Halifax County, Virginia, where I think the ages are inaccurate, then he would not have been a minor if born in 1774.... when his father died ca 1796. And his wife shows as born 1790 which would make her 11 years old if Lemuel Cartrer Sr and Martha ?Patsy? Carter actually married in 1801 in Halifax, County. In the 1860 Census in Caswell County, North Carolina, Lemuel Carter shows as L. Carter and it states a birth age similar to that in the 1850 Census in Halifax County. The probate records in Caswell County show this is the same Lemuel Carter Sr. The probate records images for Caswell County on this site show show Lemuel Carter Sr. had a son named John and Lemuel Carter. Lemuel Jr. had a son John Flint who also had a son John Flint Carter. These Lemuel Carter attachments in the tree are not transcriptions and are actual images which is really fantastic.
