Dear Beth: Do you have the names of Pennfield's children? I have not been
able to find the parents of my GGGGgrandmother, Peggy CARTER who married
Samuel THOMPSON Jr. in the late 1700's, probably in VA. Their daughter, Lucy
THOMPSON (1794 - 1872) married a cousin, Horatio THOMPSON and they came to KY
at some point (or she may have been born in KY).
If you, or anyone on the list, has any information about these folks, I
would greatly appreciate hearing from you.
Martha

Hi all,
My grandmother's Carter family was from Amelia County, Virginia.
Her father was Hiram Lee Carter 1867-1941 who married to Mary Elizabeth
Warriner in 1903 and they had 3 daughters.
Hiram Lee's parents were Martha America Carter and Henry W. Carter who
married in 1848 and had 6 children: Charles E., Pennfield Claude, Susan, Mary
Victoria "Mollie", Henry Irvin and Hiram Lee Carter.
Pennfield moved to Kentucky and stayed there marrying Annie Word and had 4
children. Hiram Lee later moved to Ringgold, Va. and Henry Irvin married Blanche
Cofer, they had 2 children and latermoved to Richmond. Mollie married to John
Lowery and they had 4 children.
Charles I do not know what happened to him and Susan died a baby.
Henry W. Carter's parents were Thomas Carter and Catherine Muse. Thomas may
have originally come from Halifax County or elsewhere. I do not yet know who
his parents were.
I have another Carter family, but not from Amelia County. Robert "King"
Carter is one of my ancestors via his daughter Anne Carter who married to Benjamin
Harrison IV.
Thank you.
God bless,
Beth
