General Notes: Husband - Edward Carter Sr
Aug. 10, 1719, "Mr. Edward Carter" (son of Capt. Thomas Carter, Sr.) had a negro boy, son of a free negro woman, bound to him till he was of age, and besides finding him suitable maintenance in his service he was "to cause him to be taught to read and write'
Also there is a strong probability that the above Edward Carter was the father of Joseph Carter, who died in Prince George County in 1761, as the names of the children of Joseph point strongly to a connection with the Lancaster family. As we have full data of the children of Capt. Thomas
Carter, Sr.'s other sons - Thomas, Henry, James, Peter, and Joseph, and only partial data of Edward's sons it would seem that this Joseph was his son if he was a member of the Lancaster Carter family. Joseph Carter mentions in his will in
1760 the following children and grandchildren: Sons
Joseph, John, Daniel, David and William; Daughters - Elizabeth, Lucy, Sarah, married a Williams, Anne married a Williams, and Mary married a Brockwell; grandsons - Carter Brockwell son of John Brockwell, Joseph son of David Carter, and Joseph son of Peter Williams. Peter Williams was later clerk of Prince George County.

General Notes: Husband - Elijah Carter
Elijah are his wife are found in St Bartholomews Parrish in the 1790 Census, along with brothers George and John. All three lived next door to one another,
A quote from Folks Huxford, Vol. III, page 362 informs the reader, "The Hon. H.D. O'Quinn wrote a series of articles in the Valdosta Times, in 1889, dealing with his recollections of the Carter family, his grandmother being a Carter. He himself spent his boyhood in Barnwell District, S.C. where his family lived, some of them living in the adjoining Colleton District. With reference to Samuel Carter and his father, Elijah, he wrote in the issue of Mar. 2, 1899: 'Old Uncle Elijah Carter was a very large, tall, bony man, rather stoop-shouldered, long arms, large hands and feet, long face, high cheekbones, small eyes and large ears, and generally considered to be the best man for manhood in the county at that time. I don't know how many children he raised…
Four of his sons Isaac, John, Elijah and Samuel, settled in Lowndes County, between 1830 and 1840; all of them raised large families….Old Uncle Elijah's death was caused by some dogs jerking him backwards off from Phillip Carter's steps, by his coat-tail and breaking his back, when in his 103rd year of age….'
Elijah served in Isham Walker's Company during the War of 1812. Mr. Carter passed away in Barnwell District, S.C.
Additional research indicate that in 1829 or 1830, the four sons of Elijah moved to Lowndes County, GA where other family members had already moved. They settled on the west side of the Alapaha River in what is now Lanier and Lowndes Counties.
