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
