Notes:

Name: Robert CARTER Birth: 22 Dec 1770 Death: 9 Sep 1839
The will of John Carter, of Halifax County, amongst other provisions, devised to his three sons, Richard, Robert and Theodrick, four hundred and fifty acres of land purchased from George Ridley. The records of Halifax County, Virginia, show that Robert Carter sold his share of the land to George Marable.

The court records of Halifax County, Virginia confirm that Robert Carter was married to Unity Cook, by William P. Martin, November 1st, 1792. The last business transaction recorded by Robert Carter, in Halifax Co., Va., prior to his removal to Tennessee, was the sale of two negroes to William Ferrell on June 19th, 1801. Robert Carter moved with his family to Tennessee about 1805. Robert Carter continued to reside at Franklin, Tennessee, until his death, September 9th, 1839, in his 69th year. His will was burned while in the possession of one of his grandchildren, at Nashville, Tennessee. A list of personal property, in his possession at his death, is recorded at Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee. Robert Carter and Unity Cook produced six children, Sarah Venable, Henry Cook, John Blackgrove, Robert Michaux, Polly, and Samuel Jefferson Carter, all of whom, according to the family Bible. Two other children, another Mary and Nancy, did not survive infancy.

SAMUEL JEFFERSON CARTER, b. 3 JAN 1803 HALIFAX COUNTY, VA
Samuel Jefferson Carter, son of Robert and Unity Cook Carter, was born in Halifax County, Virginia, January 3d, 1803, and died suddenly at Carter's Landing, West Tennessee, March 31st, 1873, leaving no will. He married, as shown by the family Bible, first Eliza Staggs, and had three children: Watson M., Jordan B., and Eliza S. Samuel Jefferson Carter married second Anne Vaulx, and had fourteen
children: Warren, Hays, Watkins Leigh, Charles Vaulx, Samuel J., Laura O., Irene M., Samuel Jefferson, William Giles Harding, Anne Catharine, Frank Cook, Ella Watson, Vaulx, Mary Hays. Of the eleven sons of Samuel Jefferson Carter, the first eight are deceased without male issue. General William H. Carter has one son, William Vaulx Carter, and Frank Cook Carter has one son, William Dawley Carter. These two young men, William Vaulx Carter and William Dawley Carter, are all of their generation bearing the name of Carter, in the direct line traced in this memoir. Samuel Jefferson Carter resided with his family in Davidson County, near Nashville, Tennessee, prior to 1861, and in Nashville during the Civil War. At the time of his death he was residing on his farm in West Tennessee, near Carter's Landing, on the Mississippi River.
WILLIAM GILES HARDING CARTER was married, October 27th, 1880, at San Francisco, California, to Ida Dawley. Two sons have been born of this marriage, William Vaulx Carter (who was graduated from West Point in 1904 and appointed a lieutenant in the Sixth United States Cavalry, his father's old regiment), and Leigh Hays Carter, who, while a student
at the University of Illinois, was accidentally killed
by an electric shock in one of the University buildings, August 27th, 1907.

Record Title Letter, 1745, to Charles Carter (King George County, Va.) concerning an African-American slave, Beck, and her family.
Document Notes: The author of the letter, Francis Willis, requests to hire Beck's husband to prevent the family, which consists of several children, from being separated.
County: King George

This is in reference to a letter from Willis to Charles Carter mentions a child Bobby to come of age.


John Carter was born in St. Peter's Parish, New Kent Co, VA on 26 AUG 1737, and baptized on 30 OCT 1737. This Parish is south of the York and Pamunkey Rivers and was also the home of the Waddill family.

John Carter's Will was executed 18 JUN 1781, and probated before the court held for Halifax Co., VA on 20 SEP 1781. The witnesses were Benjamin Hobson, David Bates, Noel Waddill, Theodrick Carter (Third) and Charles Carter, a son of Theodrick Carter(Third). The Executors named were his wife, Mary Carter, Captain James Turner, William Boyd and John Carter's brothers Richard and Theodrick (Third).

John Carter's three eldest children, Richard, Theo, and Robert filed a chancery suit in Halifax county in 1799 [19 years after the death of John] charging the Executors [Mary Carter, their mother] and Richard Carter, dec'd and his executor Susannah Powell (nee Carter) for monies not accounted for when Richard Carter bargained and sold land privately. Mary Carter (nee Cunningham) is still alive and gives testimony referring to Richard Carter's affidavit. Many pages of testimony follow demonstrating not only that money was paid to Richard, but never passed on to the family. The position of David Powell and Susannah is that the children were educated and provided for, out of the estate of their father, John Carter, dec'd. Robert appears to act as attorney and questions many witnesses. The suit is then refiled in Richmond County and continues. Polly Powell (nee Carter), wife of Mastin Powell and d/o Susannah Carter Powell (nee Bigger) testifies to angry words between Robert and Susannah, his aunt. The suit continues whereby Robert questions numerous witnesses as to the quality of his education, and of the ability of the estate of the dec'd John Carter to produce enough to keep the widow and children adequately. [it is obvious to this researcher that Robert is an ambitious, determined and combative individual and probably was of the same personality since his childhood, when he admits he would not be schooled.] He challenges that his education and that of his siblings was less than he considered their due. Both he and Theo, though, can write and sign their names, as does Susannah. The testimony of Frederick Miller links the Gunsmith to these Carter lines; he marries the Gunsmith's Daughter. Henry Hobson and others testify as well.

[While the content of this matter is tedious reading, it offers more insight into the characters of these family members, than previously seen.-mfe]

Robert married Unity [VA] Cook 26 Oct 1792, Halifax County, Virginia (MB1/25). Unity (daughter of John [VA] Cook, Jr. and Mary Blagrave) was born Abt 1771, Halifax Co., Virginia; died 8 Sep 1809, Franklin Co., Williamson, Tennessee. [Group Sheet]

Eliza's great-uncle John Carter (through her mother's line) was the father of Francis Watkins Carter, who built the home which is currently open for tours as Carter House Museum in Franklin, TN. One of her cousins was Confederate Lt. Theodorick "Tod" Carter, who died in a battle with Union troops on the lawn of the home during the Battle of Franklin, November 30, 1864. In a sad tale reminiscent of so many of the era, family fought family as Eliza's son John joined the Union in combat with Missouri's Militia Regiment 5, Company B.

Notes:

Theodrick Carter, II and Anne Waddill were the parents of Nancy Waddill Carter. Anne Waddill was baptized January 24, 1713, according to the register of St. Peter's parish, which encompassed New Kent County. Her parents were William and Sarah Dennis Waddill. William was elected vestryman of St. Peter's, on June 1, 1704, and served in
this capacity for at least thirty-five years. The author James Branch Cabell,a descendant of John Waddill, discussed the Waddills in his book "The Majors and Their Marriages." Theodrick Carter and Anne Waddill lived for a time in New Kent County. According to the register of St. Peter's parish, their first child John was baptized on October 30, 1737. Theodrick appeared in the Amelia County tithables list of June 10, 1747 in John Nash's district (this area became part of Prince Edward County in 1754); he is absent from the list Nash compiled for the same district on June 10, 1745. He must therefore have migrated from New
Kent County to present-day Prince Edward County sometime between these two dates. Nancy was born June 15, 1749, probably at her father's estate "Hickory Hill" (also known as "Hickory Grove"). According to tradition, the house was built around 1750; however, it may have been built three years earlier, since we know that Theodrick was living in John Nash's tax district on June 10, 1747.
John Wood's 1820 map of Prince Edward County shows the location of Hickory Hill. Two miles west of Hampden-Sydney College is the notation "Capt. Carter's." Captain Carter was Samuel Carter, Nancy's brother. Samuel inherited Hickory Hill from his father in 1777. Destroyed by fire in 1933, Hickory Hill was described four years later in the Works Projects Administration survey of Prince Edward County homes: [Hickory Hill] was not a show place except for its splendid boxwood and cedar hedge and lovely gardens. It was a plain frame house, or rather two houses connected by a little square room. The first of these traditions says it was built in 1750, a story and a half with small rooms except for one large reception room, which was beautifully paneled, and with one side of carved oak. The other part of the house was built by William H. Venable, when he bought the plantation in 1853 from Edward Carter [Samuel's son]. Mr. Venable built a large, square, two-story frame building, with large rooms and ample halls. The many outbuildings around the mansion house made the place quite a little settlement. The large grove of hickories flanking it on the south gave the place its name.
Nancy's father was one of Prince Edward County's most prominent planters. He purchased 975 acres in old Amelia County on September 20, 1748, and bought and sold other parcels of land up to the time of his death. A member of the Anglican church, Theodrick offered 300 acres of land to St. Patrick's parish for its use as a glebe, or plot of land granted to the local clergyman as part of his benefice during his tenure of office.

Thomas and Nancy Thompson probably named their fourth child in honor of her brother, Samuel Carter. Samuel distinguished himself in the military, in politics, and as a businessman. A member of the 1st Virginia Regiment during the Revolutionary War, he and seven other officers were granted the honor of personally welcoming the Marquis de Lafayette during the great soldier and statesman's visit to Richmond in October, 1824 (Richmond Enquirer, October 29, 1824, page 3). Samuel at various times held the county offices of sheriff, magistrate, and coroner; in 1805-1806 he represented Prince Edward County in the Virginia Assembly. In the late 1790s he was a trustee of a company which improved navigation on the Appomattox River. Later, he became a charter trustee of the Junction Canal Company. In 1825 the company constructed a canal which linked the Appomattox and Little Roanoke rivers. John Wood's map of Prince Edward County shows Samuel's mill at the mid-point of this canal.
