Hi Carter - ites!
All the Carters on the list seem to come from the South!! How about some
Northern Carters. John Carter and Chloe ? had a son Riley Carter born 15
Aug 1833, reportedly in Cayuga Co., NY. John and Chloe moved to
Weathersfield Twp, Trumbull, OH, by 1838. John d. bef 1850. Riley was in
the Civil War and drew a pension. He married Caroline Ballard in 1857, dau.
of Zebulon and Elizabeth (Giles Wilson) Ballard/Bellard. Riley died 1 Aug
1899.
Children of John and Chloe:
Abner b. abt 1832, NY
Riley b. 15 Aug 1833, Cayuga Co., NY
Sarah b. abt 1838, NY
Lyman b. abt 1839, OH
Sylvester b. abt 1844, OH
Claudia b. abt 1846, OH
I have more information about Caroline Ballard's family, but the Carters
are a dead end with John and I can't find his wife's maiden name. Please
Help!!!
