Est 1735 - 1803 (~ 68 years)

Less detail

Generation: 1

John [Norris] Carter was born Est 1735, Scott Co., Virginia; died 1803, Smith Co., Tennessee.

Notes:

The heirs at law of the John Carter who died in Smith Co, Tn in 1803 but whose Will is filed in Russell Co. VA are all proven descendants of Peter and Judith Norris Carter out of Fauquier Co, VA. At least one of the children of Dale Carter who was killed at Blakemore's Fort in 1774, also appears to have claimed a portion of John Carter's estate. [Russell Co DBK 7 p. 131 ] showing a probability that this Dale was the son of Peter and Judith Norris Carter and not the son of Charles Sr. and Lucy Carter as has been claimed. -Margie Brown

Died:
John Carter died in 1803 and his Will is of record in Russell County [Will Book 2 page 54]. His executor was .... Dale Carter son of Norris Carter.... John seemed to bequeathe his entire estate to his sister Sarah Pennington/Pendleton

John married Elizabeth Carter. Elizabeth (daughter of Charles 'of Amherst' Carter and Lucy Carter) was born Abt 1735, Amherst Co., Virginia; died 1787. [Group Sheet]
