Vickie,
I believe I am a decendent of Charles Carter 1757-1838 married to Catherine
1751-1841, married 1780 .
My kit nos. is 49857. My cousin Thomas M. Carter, Jr.did the DNA test for
12 markers and I paid for it to be extended out further in July 2008. I have
had a couple of e-mails but I would like to find out whether I am from
Charles' son James or Josiah. Many of his sons have much research already
completed but not my line. Charles' grandson James Madison Carter 1821-1848. We
have very detailed records after James
Madison Carter.
I have worked on this for 25 years and a great aunt work on it for many
years.

Vickie,
Under Haplogroup R1a of which my Dad is part (14437), kit nos. 110207,
115311, 14440, 15591 and 53965 are all grouped. And while I have my
research documented, I do not match with kit 32390 who also has researched
out to Charles Carter of Essex Co, VA. So something is wrong with my line
since I do not match up to them. There could be several scenarios, for
example a relative Carter dies and their son is taken in and raised by my
line somewhere.
So what I am wondering is, because I am a fit and closely numbered with R1a
Group, does that mean, that I am still a Carter descendant or can I descend
from another surname altogether?
I am terribly confused over DNA and the Haplogroups, so hope you can help to
clarify some of this.
Also, should I take my Descendant chart out of the DNA website since it
appears to be wrong?
Thanks Margaret
