Theron and all,
The Peter and Judith Morris....this is what I have for them Peter Carter and Judith Norris
perhaps spelling got mixed up. This Peter is the s/o Thomas Carter, Jr which is my direct
lineage. The problem is that I dont have a Morris Carter as a brother to Peter. I
discussed that with my mother and she said she is not sure who this Morris was but I am
hanging on that one to search further.
This is what I have the children of Capt. Thomas Carter, Jr and Arabella Williamson:
James Carter
Joseph Carter
Thomas Carter III
Edward Carter
Daniel Carter
Peter Carter
Dale Carter
Charles Carter
Does anyone have a will of Capt. Thomas Carter, Jr? Maybe Morris may be on it.

In the data below number 10 and 11 are both Thomas Carter. One has a wife
spelled Elinor. That odd spelling for Elinor was carried in my Thomas Carter
line. Can you direct me to the web site so I can investigate further? I too
may be in this line.

Subject: [CARTER-L] Are June Carter Cash and Jimmy Carter distant cousins?
Last week, the statement was made on the 8 -hour program on THE
HISTORY
CHANNEL that Elvis Presley and June Carter Cash were distant cousins of
President Jimmy Carter. Other Internet sites mention the same relationships.
The Presley relationship appears probable and there is documentation that
supports it. However, none of the sites that allude to the Carter/Carter
relationship give any clues to the details of the alleged connection.
The published ancestries of President James Earl "Jimmy"
CARTER and
Valerie June CARTER, wife of Johnny CASH
The ancestor charts available for the two lines seem to auger against a
close
documentable probable connection of the two CARTER lines.
Beginning with Generation 5 [2-great grandafathers]on each lines, the
following shows the respective ancestries back to England as compiled by
different researchers:
1 James Earl "Jimmy" CARTER
...
5 Wiley CARTER 1798-1864
6 James CARTER 1773-1858
7 Kindred CARTER 1750-1800
8 Isaac CARTER 1730-1790
9 Moore CARTER 1680-1741 Isle of Wight Co., VA.)
10 Thomas CARTER c1650-1710=Magdalene MOORE
11 Thomas CARTER SR. 1630-1669=Elinor [some say COOKE]
12 Thomas CARTER 1610-1668 of Isle of Wight Co., VA
[Brother: John CARTER of Coratoman, Lancaster Co., VA 1613-1669 =(4)
Sarah LUDLOW]
13 John CARTER 1574-1630 = Bridget BENION
14 Thomas CARTER c1528-? = Jone HYLL.
15 Richard CARTER c1500- 1558 = Joan ?.
1 Valerie June CARTER = Johnny CASH
...
5 Dulaney CARTER 1811-1877 = Rebecca SMITH (Scott Co., VA)
6 Williamson CARTER 1773, Fauquier Co. VA. - 1853 = Martha ENGLAND
7 Norris CARTER 1748,Fauquier County, VA - 1816= Agnes ALLEN
8 Peter CARTER 1706, Lancaster Co., VA - 1765 = Judith MORRIS
[Brother: Moore CARTER c1693, Spotsylvania, VA]
9 Thomas Capt Jr CARTER 1672, Lancaster, VA - 1733=Arabella WILLIAMSON
10 Thomas Capt Sr CARTER 1630,Bedfordshire, Eng -1700, VA = Virginia
Katherine
DALE
11 William Ancell CARTER 1591, Bedfordshire - 1634 = Jane MYLES
12 William CARTER 1559, Bedfordshire - 1605 = Mary ANSCELL
13 William CARTER 1510, Bedfordshire - 1569 = Elizabeth CRANFIELD
14 Thomas CARTER c1475, Bedfordshire
15 William CARTER c1450
In both lines, there is "Moore Carter" occurring in both line and a
reference to Lancaster Co., VA, but not in a context that would indicate a
match.
Does any CARTER researcher have an opinion on this matter?
Regards to all,
Theron Smith
