Does anyone know of a Richard Carver born abt 1796 in South Carolina
according to the 1850 census in Missouri, maybe this should be North
Carolina. His wife was Mary A. (last name unknown) born abt 1809 in North
Carolina. They came to Missouri and had three known children, Joseph L.
married Miranda Ritter, George Washington married Winifred Watson and
Malissa Ann married first Charles Eastman and second Ezekiel George Jasper
Sullivan. There were other males and females listed in the 1840 census so I
am sure there are more children. I have been unable to trace this family
farther back than the Richard mentioned above. If anyone can help me, I'd
greatly appreciate it.
