According to the Josiah Carter book, Thomas Carter (the ancestor of Josiah)
was a neighbor of Giles Carter but they were not known to be related. It
quotes records showing four different Carter families in early Henrico Co,
VA. The others were George Carter and John Carter, Esq. It includes almost
no details on George and John, and just a couple of pages about Giles and
his family.
