Hello,
I am hoping that someone might have a connection to Wilford Carter,
born in Va. He married Catherine Dodd. He lived in NC, Rockingham County
then moved to Shelby County Indiana around the late 1820s. Wilford Carter was
born abt. 1771 in Va. and died 1857 in Shelby County Indiana. Catherine Dodd
Carter was born abt. 1775 and died April 11, 1856 Shelby County Indiana.
Their children were Sarah, Hardin, Elizabeth, Allen, Nancy, James, John W., Lydia,
and Mary Carter.
All of their children moved to Indiana with them except Allen Carter and he
stayed in NC where he died. On the estate papers of Wilford Carter it listed
Forsythe County in NC where Allen Carter died. It also gave Elizabeth Carter
Harsin as moving to Iowa from Indiana and that is where she died.
I'm hoping that someone might have a connection and that it would be possible
to find where in Va. Wilford Carter was born and find some of his siblings or
some of his family.
Thank you
Cheri
