      Biography

      Nancy Philpott was born about 1790 at Henry County, Virginia (an estimate based on U.S. Census records and fact that she was the third daughter in her family to marry). She was a daughter of Samuel Philpott and Mary Anne ?Polly? Hannah.

      On 5 October 1812, at Henry County, a marriage bond was recorded for John Carter and Nancy Philpott.[1]

      On 24 July 1826, John Carter was named as a legatee in the distribution of the estate of Nancy?s father [Samuel] at Roane County, Tennessee (Roane County Estate Book B, 1829-1837, page 34).[2] During this time period, it was common for a husband to receive a distribution on behalf of his wife.

      Nancy was likely the female, age 30-39, living in the household of John Carter on the 1830 U.S. Census at Roane County, Tennessee. Her mother Polly [Mary Ann Hannah] may have been the female, age 70-79, also living in the household.[3]

      Nancy was likely the female, age 50-59, living in the household of John Carter on the 1840 U.S. Census at Roane County, Tennessee. The mark is faint. Nancy was not living with John on the 1860 census so she probably died between 1850 and 1860. The place of her burial is unknown.
