| Notes |
- Looking for the relatives of Richard S. Carter b/1853
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. Perkins, daughter of James R and Lena Farmer Perkins.Their 2 known children are: Richard A. b/1923 and Robert H. b/1924, 2)Lillie Maud b/1895 m/ Louis Archer Chaney, 3) Sallie Fannie b/1899 m/Robert Lee Linens.
Turner and Martha Carter's daughter Sallie J married Charles W. Dickson/Dixon. They are my great grandparents.
If you have information regarding this family or know their of descendants, I would like to correspond with them.
Thank you in advance.
