Carter Y-DNA Kit # 23874 claims to be from Giles Carter, Sr. of Henrico County, Virginia
(one of the five Carter Patriots of The Carter Society of Virginia) but I am skeptical of
this claim.
This is the information posted on the Carter Y-DNA Results page:

I do not have (nor have I ever had) contact information for the DNA Donor or Researcher
for Kit # 23874. The only pedigree information I have for Kit # 23874 is what was posted
years ago on the old (now defunct)
Carter-Cousins.org website. The webpage is archived on

I agree with LaVere Peters. Something strange happened between the 1860 census and the
1870 census. Where did all these extra children come from ??? The children with ages 11
and up in the 1870 census should be listed in the 1860 census but they are not. Did
Joseph and Mary adopt an entire family ??? If so, who were their biological parents ???
