CARTERS OF ?OAKLAND? PITTSYLVANIA.

9. JESSE CARTER, appeared in the Lancaster records next after the settlement of his
father's estate as, "Jesse Carter of the Parish of Christ Church, Lancaster,
Schoolmaster" when on Dec. 8, 1749, he sold to Col. James Gordon 125 acres of land
on Corotoman River that had descended to him from his grandfather, Capt. Thomas
Carter. At this time he was unmarried, but in the next year he is said to have married
Susan Satterwhite, or Satherwaite, of whose parentage no record has been located.
That is a name that is found but occasionally in Virginia record, and Mr. Crozier in his
Index to Southern Pedigrees of more than twenty thousand family histories and
genealogical notes failed to find one of this family. By this marriage he had a son,
Jessee and daughters, Margaret and Frances.
.................. reformatted key passage ......................................................................................
This wife died and Jesse Carter was married to Mary Chattin, prior to Dec. 6, 1760, when she joined him in a deed to William Griggs for their home place on Corotoman River when they were about to remove to Cumberland county. Mary Chattin was probably a daughter of Joseph Chattin, of Lancaster, who was one of the processioners of the land in the parish in 1743. She was probably connected with the Chewning family as Chattin Chewning was a processioner in 1747.


...................................................................................................................................................
A search of the Lancaster records for wills of Chattin and Satterwhite might throw some light on the parentage of Jesse Carter's two wives. As said before, Jesse Carter removed his family from Lancaster about 1760-1761 to his part of his father's land in Cumberland county, where they lived until 1781, when they removed to Pittsylvania, where he was living in 1782 as the head of a family of ten whites and seventeen colored servants. In 1785 he purchased thirteen hundred acres of land lying on both sides of Bannister River, Pittsylvania, built a fine house, called the place "Oakland" and settled down for the rest of his life. This old place is now owned by his great grandson, Jesse Lawson Carter, and is situated about four miles from Chatham, the county seat. Jesse Carter of Oakland, made his will Dec. 11, 1805, probated Dec. 11, 1811. He left a fine estate in land, negroes, etc, to wife, Mary Chattin Carter, and his eight children, four of whom only shared in the residuary estate, as he had provided them their share of his property before he died. Jesse Carter had issue as follows:

11. Jesse Carter, died in 1815 in Caswell county, N. C.
12. Frances Carter, married James Hopkins of Pittsylvania.
13. Margaret, married Samuel Thompson of Pittsylvania.
14. Sarah, married Jeduthan Carter, of "Mt. View," Pittsylvania.
15. Thomas Chattin Carter, died I820 in Pittsylvania.
16. Joseph Carter, of "Oakland," died in 1838.
17. Mary Carter, was the second wife of James Hopkins.
18. John Carter, of "Sandy River," Pittsylvania.
