Looking for information on family of my grandfather Roscoe Samuel Laws. I think his father may have been Bob Law. I would appreciate any help. I'd also love to hear from any of my cousins that might run across this.

HI. I hope you get this. I typed in my Grandfather's name, Robert Lee Laws, and came to the Carter-Laws Page. I loved the old pictures of Dora, Aunt Glade, and especially the close up of Roscoe because I never saw him. I heard he left years ago. It was nice to see some of my family history kept alive. Thanks.

Does anyone have the proof of the parents of Bernard Carter, that married Elizabeth Tureman, daugther of Ignatius and Mary [Pace] Tureman? Bernard Carter is my 5th great-grandfather, and I would love to find out his parents's names. Thanks, Nancy

Does anyone have any info on Juda Wade that married James Carter, on Dec. 5, 1807, in Albemarle Co. Va? Who were her parents? Was Judy or James married before? Any children? I can't seem to find out anything concerning her family. Thanks, Nancy

Is this the same Otis Shelton from TN. If so, His secret first wife is my mother. He left because she was pregnant with his child and did not want his son.

I just thought that I would make a quick post since there hasn't been one in what seems like quite some time Unfortunately, there have been no new additions to the family to report (if you know me you know of which I speak), but maybe soon Take it easy folks.
Hi Marshall,
Glad to see you were here. I can only hope that someone in the family will take an interest in all of this...most of them are afraid of the computer altogether.

Well, being afraid of computers certainly doesn't apply to me I just built my second one (nothing special) for me personally, and my 7th overall. No problems to date
I've got to stop by more often...it took me a year and a half to reply to this.
Take care,
Marshall

It was good to hear from you last night, Marshall via ICQ...thanks for your help in converting the photo of William Anderson Carter to a JPEG file:
I was very excited to receive that from Stacey Yongue.

An earlier Barnett Carter (1737-1814) is in my direct line, too, as he also is in yours. He would be the grandfather of your great-grandfather, also named Barnett Carter. Here are the dates of the elder Barnett:
B: 1737 D:
P: Middlesex Co., Virginia P:
M: 1756
P: Middlesex Co., VA 9
D: 1814 B:
P: Henry Co., Virginia
Do you have any info on the elder Barnett? He is as far back as I have been able to prove so far.
Thanks,
Kenny Carter http://www.carterlaws.com

No information on earlier Barnett, just have info on Barnett & Drucila and other wife. I have visited Barnett's grave and Drucila's grave in Albemarle co., going to Charlottesville friday to meet with some Carter cousins.
Posted on Jan 19, 2004, 2:16 PM from IP address 208.0.20.2
Yes, Charlottesville is definitely in the thick of it for our family. I got the document on this page on the phone from there:
The text of it is as follows:
Know all men by these presents that we Henry Carter and Jesse White are held and firmly bound unto the Commonwealth of Virginia in the Just Sum of Fifty pounds which payment well and truly to be made we bind ourselves jointly and severally our joint and several heirs firmly by these presents Sealed with our seals and dated this 13th day of Dec. 1785.
The Condition of this obligation is such that whereas there is a marriage suddenly to be solemnized between the above bound Henry Carter and Sarah White now if there be no Just cause to obstruct the same then this obligation to be void otherwise to remain in force.
Test,
Nicholas Lewis Just.

If anyone reading this has any information pertaining to the parents of Winston Marshall Carter (1868-1962) of Eden (formerly Leaksville, North Carolina, USA), please e-mail me at kenny@leaksville.com.
I think his father was William Anderson Carter, who was a veteran of the War Between the States, but that's all I know...I know nothing of Winston's mother.
Thank you,
Kenny Carter

Dear Kenny, My mother is a Carter, there is a VERY BIG history of the names William and ANDERSON in our family, who originated from NC. But left there late 1700's and early 1800's.. Do you have any early family history of your Carter's? i.e., names, dates, places of birth, etc.? M.Stuart
