Carter, says that the following Henrico Co. VA records are for Giles CARTER III, son of Giles II. (I believe that to be incorrect -- See NOTE below.) p 72 - 28 Sep 1772, Giles sold a slave and 2 horses to Drury Wood. p 73 - 8 Apr 1784, appointed as tobacco inspector (sureties, Martin Hawkins & John Smith). p 74 - 11 May 1787, Giles was sued by Sewell CARTER (suit dismissed). 6 Aug 1788, court ordered payment to Giles by Thomas WILLIAMSON. 5 May 1789, Giles & John SMITH sued Nathaniel MILLER. 4 Apr 1792, court ordered payment to Giles by William A. SMITH. The names, Sewell CARTER and Thomas WILLIAMSON suggest a connection with Giles II, but probably a later generation than his son. NOTE I believe that Giles II and III were in North Carolina by 1744; but it's possible that Giles III may have returned to Henrico Co. later. However, Giles III died before 1 August 1790.
