If anyone has any info on the ancestors of this Richard D. CARTER, I would
appreciate any help. He lived in Miller Co., GA. and died in Miller Co.,
GA. He also served as a privite in the Civil WAr with his son James, who
died in the war. There is a family story that says his wife refused to
allow him to come home and live when he brought his son (dead) home from the
war. His wife's maiden name is unknown at this time and any help at all
would
be very much welcome. Where was he born...possibly SC.
Thank you,
Nancy Gay Crawford
