Every once in awhile, someone posts somewhere on the net a John Carter born
1713/14 in Woburn., son of Thomas Carter and Susanna Winship in 1713
Cambridge, is the same John Carter who went to NS after he married the widow
Lucea Davis in Stoneham in 1761. I can't find any proof of this.
My conjecture is that the John Carter who went to NS with his new wife (and
new son John) shortly after 1761 was a veteran of the Crown Point expedition
and was 20 years old in the muster lists of 1756. He was also born in Woburn
(1735-1736) and lived in Stoneham at marriage. But, I've never found a birth
record in Woburn for him, not in Stoneham for that matter.
Any ideas how to distinguish between them, or prove the John Carter who
emigrated to NS to take up a Land Grant in Onslow?

Lexie, Sorry to tell you that I find no trace of Amos B Carter, although
I checked several Carter books,
including the Carter genealogy by Howard Williston Carter, some lists I
have of descendants of Rev Thomas Carter's son Rev Samuel Carter and
"Brother Lost" by Arthur F Carter which is about Robert Carter, the
shipbuilder from Bristol, England who came to Bristol, RI then settled in
Connecticut. I'm a descendant of both Rev Thomas and of Robert Carter.
Perhaps you'll get some other replies from the list, to your message, that
will be more helpful to you. Good luck with your search.
