    What is it that you want to add?
    My reasoning is that James Vaughan is involved with the individuals included in the Lines of Richard Carter and Susannah Bigger; he is guardian and gives consent for the marriage of Nancy LeGrand to William Turner in Halifax Co. His ward Elizabeth 'Betsy' Turner, d/o Nancy LeGrand and William Turner, married one of my grandfathers, William George 'Buck' Carter. The LeGrands removed to Tennessee; but Betsy is found in Halifax with James Vaughan acting for her father. This James Vaughan also acted as Bondsman for William Carter who married Mary Hobson. Wm., a son of Susannah Bigger and Richard Carter. Richard had died in 1797 and James Vaughan acted in his stead. William Carter would be the uncle of Buck Carter. http://reynoldspatova.org/getperson.php?personID=I12907&tree=reynolds1


    http://reynoldspatova.org/getperson.php?personID=I15070&tree=reynolds1

    Further, Wm. Carter's birth is about 1778, Halifax Co., VA. He marries Polly in 1801 probably right after his 21st birthday, which is exactly what we would expect. If the Wm. who married Mary Hobson was the s/o Theodorick as other researchers propose, he would have been born in the 1740's, or at the latest 1750. By 1801 he would have been 50 or more. I just can't see that being the case. Another William candidate is the s/o Theodorick4 and his first wife, Ms. Townes. He is in Prince Edward, later in Halifax with an estimated birth of 1765. I do not think there is a Will for this William, but I will double check when I am in Halifax next month.

    They were located on the Pittsylvania Co., side of Halifax; Jesse, his brother married Susannah Adkins, who is also from Pittsylvania Co., VA

    So, as you see, there is no direct evidence that has turned up as of now. This is just my theory of one other member of my Carter line. Note: I can be wrong, but this is my best guess. The LVA is in the processing and scanning the Halifax Chancery Records and they are not yet available. They may tell us more, if I live long enough for them [LVA] to finish.
