I need help on finding my family( Carter), can anybody help?
My Edmond Carter from North Carolina shows upon the 1850 census in Macon
Co. also listed is a son named Thomas( age 2).
The 1860 census shows the same Thomas as" Thpmas G. age 14-and an
Idiot".
Then on the 1870 census a" Thomas U." which could be a (G) living with
Thomas( age 80) and Elizabeth (age 81). This Thomas is age 24.There is
no Thomas listed in Edmond's (or Edward's ) house.However,they lived
next doors. I need help figuring these discrepancies out.
It is my belief that my Sarah E.(age 7 )from the 1850 census married
William H. Carter who is J.L. Carter's son from North Carolina.The 1860
census lists J.L.as age 54 married to a Margarett (age 39 ) from North
Carolina.
Also, I'm told Edward died after the 1870 census-perhaps 1874.
The 1880 census list Sarah E. and William H. Carter,with Carter being
Sarah's maiden name and having a son whose name was William
Ed.Carter-age 6.
I have been stuck here for about three years now. Somebody has to know
these people Please. Thanks Chris
