      Notes:

      This info says that Mary Carter, d/o Lemuel and Patsy Powell b 1805 is the Mary Carter who married Isaac Satterfield who was the Trustee of the estate of Mastin Powell. Mastin Powell and Patsy Powell who married Lemuel Carter are both the children of David Powell and Mary Eppes....Mary Carter-d/o-Lemuel Carter-father; ISAAC SATTERFIELD WAS THE SON OF THE FOLLOWING SAMUEL SATTERFIELD AND NANCY CARTER; MARY CARTER WAS THE DAUGHTER OF LEMUEL CARTER.

      Lemuel Carter and Mary "Polly" Carter are both children of Susannah Bigger and Richard Carter. Undoubetly, Lemuel named his daughter Mary, for his sister who was Mastin Powell's wife. Also, Mary is also the name of Patsy Powell's mother, Mary Eppes who was David Powell's 1st wife. Remember, Susannah Bigger married David Powell after the death of Richard Carter.

      These Carters and Powells have been aligned for more than 100 years. -Mary Frances Eggleston

      Notes:

      This info says that Mary Carter, d/o Lemuel and Patsy Powell b 1805 is the Mary Carter who married Isaac Satterfield who was the Trustee of the estate of Mastin Powell. Mastin Powell and Patsy Powell who married Lemuel Carter are both the children of David Powell and Mary Eppes....Mary Carter-d/o-Lemuel Carter-father; ISAAC SATTERFIELD WAS THE SON OF THE FOLLOWING SAMUEL SATTERFIELD AND NANCY CARTER; MARY CARTER WAS THE DAUGHTER OF LEMUEL CARTER.

      Lemuel Carter and Mary "Polly" Carter are both children of Susannah Bigger and Richard Carter. Undoubetly, Lemuel named his daughter Mary, for his sister who was Mastin Powell's wife. Also, Mary is also the name of Patsy Powell's mother, Mary Eppes who was David Powell's 1st wife. Remember, Susannah Bigger married David Powell after the death of Richard Carter.

      Notes: After Father Richard Carter died Halifax County Pleas Book 18 p 121 - Lemuel Carter being of full age to choose - chose John Carter as
      Guardian - David Powell and & Thomas Carter were securities 1797

      In 1796 Susannah sued for her dower rights and Thomas Watkins was appointed Guardian of children

      Richard's brother John Carter was in Rev War. Richard and John died in Halifax County WB 1 p 88

      I read somewhere that Lemuel Carter was with Washington at Valley
      Forge. (css) No b. dates listed. I don't know how correct the family groups are.

      I have Waddill Carter m. to Mildred Wade - I don't know where the
      researcher found he married Mary Thomas.

      Halifax Co., Virginia Deed Francis Brandon gives his daughter Catherine land to service his named grandchildren William T., Eliza H., Thomas O. and Mary Ann Catherine and any other of her children. Dated 1831; The marriage Record for Richard Carter and Catherine Brandon is 1822. If these children are listed as the grandchildren of Francis Brandon, f/o Catherine who married Richard Carter, then these are the children of Richard Carter.

      Richard married Susannah Bigger on 29 Dec 1772 in Prince Edward County, Virginia. Susannah was born in c 1752 in Probably Prince Edward, Virginia. [Group Sheet]


    4. 7.  Susannah Bigger was born in c 1752 in Probably Prince Edward, Virginia.

      "Probably Theodrick - Giles deeded to son Theodrick Chas. City Co land 1741"

      * 1741 /2 Joseph Dabbs to Theodrick Carter north side Willis River
      next to Orson Martin and James Webb

      16 June 1741 Theodorlck Carter of Goochland Co., to Richard Manlng of same
      [at face value, could be either Theo]

      * 1743 Orson Martin of Goochland to Theoderick Carter of Amelia
      north side Willis river wit Edmund Gray.

      * 1750 Hutchins Burton of Cumberland Co.Va. to Thomas Platt land
      north side Willis River adj. Theoderick Carter ,Thomas Bassett & Robert Burton.

      "The Willis River rises in southern Buckingham County and initially flows eastwardly into [southern] Cumberland County, where it turns north-northeastwardly for the remainder of its course. It flows into the James River in northern Cumberland County, about 6 mi (10 km) southeast of Columbia".

      Amelia County is nowhere near the Willis - it's on the other (east) side of Cumberland:
      The County, named for Princess Amelia, daughter of George II of England, was created by a legislative act in 1734, and in 1735, it was created from Prince George and Brunswick Counties. Then, in 1754, Prince Edward County was formed from Amelia County, and later the County was reduced to its current size when Nottoway County was separated in 1789.

      * These three deed citations could be anywhere along the Willis - including the intersection with the James River - which is exactly where Carters Ferry (of Robert) is. Thing is, per the description of the river flowing North by Northeast, the only land truly north of the Willis River is in that small pocket up at the James River - where the Willis turns sharply East just before emptying into the James.

      And yet, these are just deed locations - except for the 1743 citation, these do not tell us where the Theo in question was living at the time. We have many cases where in other lines where transactions were being conducted after the removal of the property owner.

      1741 - Giles Carter acknowledged a deed to his son Theodorick
      Charles City Co., VA Records 1737-1774, Weisiger III, p 85
      1742 Giles CARTER sold land to Theodorick CARTER in Henrico Co VA

      The following are all from June Cottrell's 8 Dec 1997 e-mail:
      1753 Will of John Cocke of Henrico Co was witnessed by Theodorick & Joseph Carter.
      1756 transaction with the Hamlett family
      1759 Theo & Joseph witness to will of John Cocke (probably the actual probate)
      1761 A deed from Robert Povall of Henrico Co. to Theodrick Carter of Charles City Co.
      1752 A second transaction with the Hamlett family.
      1768 Theodrick Carter married Elizabeth, widow of Samuel GREGORY in Charles City Co.
      1771 Theodrick did the inventory of Littleberry Hardyman
      1774 Theodrick did the inventory of Henry Phillips.

      Joseph Carter may be Theodrick's son.

      A solid, continuous presence where the combined transactions of 1742 and 1753 prove the three transactions on the north side of the Willis River must belong to Theo Junior - in Amelia County by 1743 - and not the son of Giles Junior. And ... let's remember that the mother of Theo Junior is now proven to be Elizabeth Webb - per the 1741 transaction north of the Willis.

      Notes:

      http://oliverdreams.tripod.com/TedCarterJr.html

      THEODORICK JR -3 married about the time his father died, somewhere around 1736 or 1737. John Carter-3 is mentioned in the will of their father to receive several basic household articles that were not given to THEODORICK-3 who appears to be the older of the two men, and was probably already married at the time the will was written. THEODORICK-3 received almost twice as much land as John-3 did, however, again reinforcing our belief that he is the older of the two. THEODORICK-3 married a woman named ANN, who is apparently the daughter of WILLIAM WADDILL. Her birth is recorded in the parish register as ?Ann Waddill, the daughter of William Waddill christened 24 January 1713? and recorded in New Kent. Since we know that THEODORICK CARTER-3 was born prior to 1706 we can see that ANN WADDILL was a few years younger than he was.

      In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this seventh day of December in the year of Christ one thousand seven hundred and seventy seven.


      Theo?d Carter [seal]

      Witnesses: William Waddill, Elizabeth Clarke, and Agnes Watkins.


      Agnes Watkins, the witness to this will, was the wife of Francis Watkins, one of the executors of the will. Thomas Watkins [possibly the father of Francis] had witnessed the will of THEODORICK-3?s father. Thus, more circumstantial proof that we have the right Theodorick Carter. The William Waddill who witnessed the will was probably not ANN?s father by that name, but most likely was her brother, nephew, or cousin. The will was probated January 19, 1778, in Prince Edward County. Francis Watkins, the executor of the will, was apparently a close friend or relation to the CARTER family. John Carter-4, the son of THEODORICK-3 named a son ?Francis Watkins Carter-5? and WILLIAM-4 also named a son ?Francis-5.? That Christian name has continued as an ?heirloom? name in this line of CARTERS ever since. This reinforces the supposition that ?our? WILLIAM is ?that William Carter.? Agnes Watkins?s sister was married to Nathaniel Venable, the co-executor.

      The mention of the Negro slave, Dick, who had been inherited as a lad from THEODORICK CARTER-2 in his will is another piece of evidence that we have the correct Theodorick Carter.

      The older children, Susannah-4, John-4, Theodorick-4, and WILLIAM CARTER-4 had apparently already been given their shares of the estate prior to the death of their father, THEODORICK-3, so they received only token bequests.
