Linda,
I went through a box of genealogy papers (again, I find myself doing this
often and usually finding something new) that belonged to my late
grandmother.
My grandmother had wrote down that James CARTER was born: abt. 1876 in
Piggot, Ark. and that after his death which was bet. April-May 1904, Flora
Ann BROWN Carter remarried to a James Wilson Harrison BERRY.
Here are some of the surnames from my research that are in and around
Piggot and Pollard Counties.

BARNWELL

Hello Sherri;
I saw your posting to the "Carter" mailing list. I have been recently
in communication with a lady from Piggot, AR. in Clay County. She too
is a Carter descendant, her direct line is "Winchester".. her Mary
Louise Carter married William Thomas Winchester, in Jackson County, AR.
and they later moved to Clay County. I am also a Carter descendant,
but most of my information goes back to the early-middle 1800's.. if
you have any information on locations of your James Carter.. ( this can
be retrieved thru census records)..or other surnames from his family,
or the names of other Carter's he may be related to- perhaps we might
can make a connection. Give me a shout, if you think I can help. Have
a great day, Sherri.
