Dear Group:
I received the following reply from one our mailings. Is there anyone on this list who
connects to these Carters?
Howdy Vickie, Jack Coder, Hampton,IL here. Got your letter about the Carter DNA testing
and found it very interesting. (We are members of the Hampton Historical Society.) I
would like to participate, but my Carter connection is thru my ggg grandmother, Mary Ann
Carter b. 1814 in Kentucky and d. 27 August 1871in McDonough County IL. Her father, of
whom we know nothing, was John Carter married to Nancy. The Duncans were from Culpeper
County, VA. After the close of the Revolutionary war the family moved to Madison County,
KY and then into IL.
They settled in McDonough County, IL in 1849. Smith Duncan and Mary Ann were the parents
of John B. Duncan, who was my grandfather, Frank Duncan's father. I know one of my
cousins has been trying to make a Carter connection. Do you have any information on this
family? I certainly would be glad to hear from you about them. My email is
jcoder2(a)mchsi.com Coder We have a Jerry Carter that is a member of our group so I will
make sure he sees your infomation. Best regards, Jack Coder
Mr Coder also gave me his snail mail address if anyone would like to correspond with him.
Vickie
