News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test.

        1850 VA Census Halifax shows:
        81 Lemuel Carter 76 planter
        Martha 60
        Richard 42 overseer
        John 33 laborer
        Elizabeth 11
        His assets very valued at 6,000 dollars

        If Richard is 42 and living with his parents, his wife has already died and thus his birth year is about 1807-8. Likewise, his Father, Lemuel reports his age as 78, making his birth year 1774-5; Mother, Martha is 60, making her YOB, 1790.
