- George T. Carter had two wives. Susie Gravitt is found on the death certificate as the mother of Joseph Alpha Carter, Sr.. Both George and Susie are listed as having been from Halifax County, Virginia. Later investigation shows the marriage record as Martha S. Green.
His second wife, Sallie Fanny Green is likely the sister of his first wife. In 1924 she inherits money from her uncle, John King Gravitt and the 4 children of Geo. T. Carter and Sue Green are listed as heirs in this will, as well. By 1930 George T. Carter is listed as widower on the census.
- Sue Green (Carter) is mentioned in the will of John King Gravitt and listed as deceased. Her children with George T. Carter are listed as heirs.

I am glad to hear from you. As mentioned before I am the daughter of William Lee Carter born 1944. I have one brother Darryl William Carter born 1970 (I was born in 1965) My grandparents were Gilbert Thomas Carter
(1905-1998) and Edna Booker Hall Carter. All of us was born in Halifax County VA. Gilbert T was born in Mt Carmel Va near Turbeville Va. My Papa Gilbert was the son of William Green Sr. and Mary E Powell Carter (1874-1965) Wiiliam Green Carter Sr and wife are buried at Olive Branch
United Methodist Church in Mt Carmel. George T Carter (father of William G. Sr). and Sallie F.are also buried there. Have you been there? I am trying
to get more info. on their life --I know they were farmers and I believe William G Sr. owned a store for awhile. I will see what I have for Susie but I Have spent more time on Sallie F and her line. Was Susie's name Martha Green? If so she may have been Sallie F's sister. I know she had a
sister named Martha. If so you are going to be excited with your find I know I was living in Halifax Co. I have to look at my info and email you back with Sallie F's father and mother then maybe you can search a line. William Leigh Green (1832 and Susan H Gravitt (1832-1860) and they did have a daughter named Martha.
