Thank you very much! Yes, that is the Robert Carter. My family is
from
Wilson and Sumner Counties, TN, and also Allen County, KY. I will certainly
look at your DNA #! I've done a little research on who Charles Carter's
father might be but nothing concrete yet. Since I'm also looking at the
Braswells in NC, I'm learning more every day about Halifax County and the
surrounding area. I'm thinking Charles has to be from the VA Carters;
however, I could be wrong. People were coming in from the north all during
that period. I just need to do more research right there in Halifax to get
the deeds of Charles Carter and see where his property was located. Halifax
was made from Edgecombe in 1758 and Edgecombe was made from Bertie in 1741
and Bertie was made from Chowan in 1722 and Chowan was made from Albermarle
in 1670. So, Charles's father could be any of the Carters from those
counties. I would very much like to exchange information with you.
