Mildred Wade married Waddill Carter c.1765. They had five children together: 1. James Carter 2. Theodrick Carter 3. Elizabeth Carter 4. Mildred Wade Carter, who married Anderson Wade in 1799 (See note from Carol Clemmer) 5. John Carter. Waddill died in 1782 and Mildred remarried in 1790 to Robert Anderson. Apparently, Robert Anderson died in 1802 and Mildred Anderson remarried AGAIN to Joseph Lewis in 1803 (as detailed in Anderson's estate papers).
From http://www.virginians.com/t.htm?7076
Waddill Carter married Mildred, likely Mildred Wade. Virginia reimbursed Carter for bacon and beef he provided during the Revolution. Milley was head of a household of nine whites in Prince Edward County in 1785. She married second Robert Anderson 19 April (bond) 1790, and third, Charles Joseph Lewis 9 October 1803.

- Nancy Waddill Carter (who married Thompson) had a brother, Waddill Carter. I have a copy of Waddill Carter's will from 1782, in which he mentions his "young son John." I am suspecting (but have not proven) that this John may be my long lost John Carter for whom I have spent years searching.
Here is what I know of my family (taken from a family ledger owned by William below and court records):
John Carter 25 March 1775 - 17 December 1852 married 21 March 1821 Oney Pollard 3 Sept. 1790 - after 1850
His children were:
1. William R. Carter 16 Sept. 1809 - 7 Feb. 1886 married 4 Feb. 1846 Mary Elizabeth Pollard 1 May 1829 - 1878
2. Beverly Atwood Carter 3 July 1813 - 17 Sept. 1862 at the Battle of Sharpsburg (unmarried)
3. Mary Elizabeth Carter 21 July 1821 - after 1880 married James Davis 16 Jan. 1799 - 8 Sept. 1845
My John Carter first shows up on Amelia County Census Records in 1820. There is a John Carter on the 1810 Census in Prince Edward who is described as being married and with one infant son (which would match my John's description). It is clear to me that John was married to another woman before he married Oney Pollard in Amelia in 1821, since all three of his children were born before then.
I have been somewhat hung up on the middle name of one of John's sons: Atwood. There are not many Atwoods in Virginia at this time. They seem to either be in Culpepper County (and they all move to present day West Virginia) or in Prince Edward County. Although I have not been able to find intermarriage between the Carters and the Atwoods, I have made this link: James Atwood dies in PEC in 1771. His will is witnessed by James Wade and Charles Wade. James and Charles Wade are the father and brother of Mildred Wade, who married Waddill Carter around 1765 in PEC. The name Atwood is too obscure (unlike say "Franklin") for there not to have been anyone to have known somebody of that name.

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.

Richard would probably have been born as early as 1730--date of parent's wedding and 1758--year his Mom would have turned 45. Richard clearly lived past 1777--the date of his father's will.
