son of Turner Carter and Martha R. Kirby, she was the daughter of Meads A Kirby and Sarah "Sally" C Word.
Richard married Nannie R. (maybe Richardson), they had 1)Lewis G. b/1892 m/8 Oct 1919 Sallie B.

Turner and Martha Carter's daughter Sallie J married Charles W. Dickson/Dixon. They are my great grandparents.
Benjamin Kirby is the son of Meads A. Kirby and Sarah C. Word
Benjamin's sister, Martha married Turner Carter 6 Aug 1849. Is Turner Carter the son of Theodorick;
Wm. G. married Nannie G. Kirby in Halifax, VA 21 Dec 1859
- 1782 Will of Richard Kirby; Halifax, VA (speculated) ancestor of Benjamin who married Buck Carter's daughter
