Feb. 7, 1805, Thompson Carter, Frederick Miller, Presley Carter and Levin Carter sold to Spencer Carter a hundred acres of land lying on the Halifax side of the Pittsylvania line, and adjoining the land of Chas.

Tenn., and that his father, Stewart Carter, removed to Alabama, where he died, and that about 1840 the widow and her children returned to North Carolina. No other data of this branch.
