Caesar Augustus "Samuel A." Carter^{[1, 2, 3]}

1864 - 1954  (90 years)

• Name	Caesar Augustus "Samuel A." Carter
  	Discussion with Connie Spring regarding the ages of the members of this family: Carolyn Wesley is probably not age 30 at her death, based on the Census records. Dates for her children are also off. " In the 1870 census it shows (looks like) Guston? age 8, I believe than is Caesar Augustine b. 1864 (he changed his name to Samuel A. Carter) It also shows a John and Joseph living with them (IF this is our James and Caroline, then John and Joseph were counted twice in 1870. I have different dates of Caesar A 's birth. One date he was born before they got married. So, I am just assuming that Caroline is the daughter of Paul and Elizabeth Williamson Wesley." [This is as stated on her marriage license] Note: In the 1870 Halifax Census Caroline Wesley, d/o Paul and Elizabeth is shown as 22 years old. She has a sister, Eliza, who is 30 years old. If she was married in 1865, why was she in the HH of her mother and father in 1870
