Robert King Carter son of John Carter and Sarah Ludlow

Robert King Carter married 1680 Virginia, to Judith Armistead.
From the "ENCYCLOPEDIA of VIRGINIA BIOGRAPHY" Under the Editorial Supervision of Lyon Gardiner Tyler, LL. D., VOLUME V, 1915, pages 848-849

The epitaph on his tomb in Christ Church, records his virtues and achievements. Translated from the Latin, it says:
Here lies Robert Carter an honorable man who by noble endowments and pure morals gave luster to his gentle birth. Rector of William and Mary College, he sustained that institution and its most trying times. And he was Speaker of the House of Burgesses and Treasurer under the most serene princes, William, Ann, George I. and George II. Elected by
the House of Burgesses its Speaker six years and Governor of the Colony for more than a year he upheld equally the regal dignity and the public freedom. Possessed of ample wealth, blameless acquired, he built and endowed this sacred edifice, a signal monument of his piety towards God. He furnished it richly. Entertaining his friends kindly, he was neither a prodigal nor a parsimonious host.

His first wife was Judith, daughter of John Armistead, Esq. His second, Betty, a descendant of the noble house of Landon. By these wives he had many children and whose education he expended large sums of money. At length, full of honors and of years, when he had well performed all the duties of an exemplary life he departed from this world on the 4th of August, 1732, in the 69th year of his age.

This man's grandson had Washington himself as neighbor, and Robert E. Lee's mother was the great granddaughter of his grandfather, Robert "King" Carter. "It was 230 years ago that Robert Carter III, the patriarch of one of the wealthiest families in Virginia, quietly walked into a Northumberland County courthouse and delivered an airtight legal document announcing his intention to free, or manumit, more than 500 slaves.

He titled it the "deed of gift." It was, by far, experts say, the largest liberation of Black people before President Abraham Lincoln signed the District of Columbia Emancipation Act and Emancipation Proclamation more than seven decades later.

Ancestor of William Henry Harrison - 9th US President.

Robert Carter was born 4 August 1663 at Corotoman plantation, Lancaster County, Virginia, a son of John Carter and Sarah Ludlow.[3] His father died when Robert was a young boy, in 1669. So his half-brother, Lt. Col. John Carter (15 years older than Robert), took on the parental role.[3] Per their father's specific instructions, Robert was educated well in England. He had a tutor for English and Latin, and lived with Arthur Bailey who was a family friend and merchant.[3]

He married 1) in 1688 at Heese, Lancaster, Virginia to Judith Armistead (died 1699).[4] She died in 1699.
He married 2) in 1701 to Elizabeth (Landon) Willis (marriage contract written April 9, 1701), widow of Richard Willis, and daughter of Thomas Landon.[3]
Robert "King" married in 1688 to Judith Armistead, daughter of John Armistead of "Hesse," Gloucester County. Their children were:[4]

John, born ca 1689, died 1742; mar Elizabeth Hill of Shirley
Elizabeth born 1692; mar Nathaniel Burwell
Judith died in infancy,
Sarah died at age 15
Judith born 1695 (the second named Judith); mar Mann Page[3]
Note: Some sources, including the Foundation for Historic Christ Church, place the birth date of John Carter III at 1696,[4]while others place it at 1689/90.[5][3]

Little is known about the intimate family life of Robert and Judith during these years.[3] Judith died February 23, 1699, and only three of her children survived to adulthood.[5]

Robert's second wife was Elizabeth Landon Willis, (mother of ten of Robert Carter's children) married in 1701:[4]

Anne Carter (1702–1743) married Benjamin Harrison IV; (parents of Benjamin Harrison V and grandparents of President William Henry Harrison).
Robert Carter II (1704–1734) married Priscilla Churchill.
Sarah Carter (~1705–1705)
Betty Carter (~1705–1706)
Charles Carter (1707–1764) married Anne Byrd, daughter of Col. William Byrd II.
Ludlow Carter (born ~1709)
Landon Carter (1710–1778) married Maria Byrd, daughter of Col. William Byrd II.
Mary Carter (1712–1736) married George Braxton; (parents of Carter Braxton).
Lucy Carter (1715–1763) married Henry Fitzhugh
George Carter (1718–1742)[3]

The first actual land grant found on record in the Northern Neck section of Virginia is to Col. Robert "King" Carter, as the agent of Lord Fairfax and to his sons and grandsons. As the agent of Lord Fairfax, the Proprietor of the Northern Neck of VA, Col. Carter handled vast bodies of land and by his will left over 300,000 acres of land to his children.[6]
Robert was known as "King" Carter due to his immense wealth. He had a remarkable reputation as a Colonial Official and an agent for Lord Fairfax, V. At the age of 28, Robert entered the Assembly as a Burgess from Lancaster County, serving five consecutive years. In 1726 he served as acting governor of Virginia after the death of Governor Drysdale. He served two terms as agent for the Fairfax proprietary of the Northern Neck of Virginia, the first being, 1702-1711, and the second term, 1722-32. During his first term, he began to acquire large tracts of land for himself in the Rappahannock region of Virginia. After acquiring some 20,000 acres for himself, he was succeeded by Edmund Jennings. When he became representative of Fairfax's interests again in 1722, he succeeded in securing for his children and grandchildren some 110,000 acres in the Northern Neck. He also had additional acquisitions beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia. Robert's gifted and productive life centered around the original Christ Church, a smaller wooden structure. His parents were buried within the chancel of the church. A historic marker outside of the Church reads: "Christ Church was built in 1732, on the site of an older Church by Robert ("King") Carter, who reserved one quarter of it for seating his tenants and servants. It is one of the very few colonial churches in America that have never been altered, a typical early eighteenth-century structure.[7]

Robert owned many slaves. An inventory of his slaves, apparently made as part of the inventory of his estate, was taken in 1733.[8] There are 345 slaves listed with names like: Old Crabb, Old Gumby, and Old Fortune a Woman past Labour.[8]

Robert left quite a list of property, including the slaves above-mentioned. He held numerous plantations in eight different counties of Virginia:

INVENTORY, [1733] November ?, of the estate of Robert Carter comprising a detailed list of agricultural equipment, blacksmith tools, books, coaches, furniture, glassware, horses and other livestock, milling tools, silverware and utensils, and slaves at Carter's estates in
Caroline (Pewmond's End),
King George (Falls and Richland quarters),
Lancaster (Brick House Quarter, Changilins Quarter, Corotoman, Corotoman Quarter, Gibson's Plantation, Great Mill, Hills Quarter, Indian Town Quarter, Little Mill, Morattico Quarter, Office Quarter, Old House Quarter, Poplar Neck Quarter, and Wolf House Quarter),
Northumberland County (Blough Point Quarter, Feilding's Plantation, Jones's Plantation, and Old Plantation),
Prince William (Bull Run, Frying Pan Quarter, Lodge Quarter, Range Quarter, and Red Oak Quarter,),
Richmond (Brick House Quarter, Bridge Quarter, Dickinson's Mill, Fork Quarter, Thomas Glascock's, Gumfield's Quarter, Hickory Thickett, Hinson's Quarter, Old Quarter, and Totuskey Quarter),
Spotsylvania (Mount Quarter and Norman's Ford), Stafford (Hamstead Quarter, Hinson's Quarter, Park Quarter, and Poplar Quarter), and
Westmoreland (Brent's Quarter, Coles Point, Dick's Quarter, Forrest Quarter, Head of the River, Medcalf's Plantation, Moon's Plantation, The Narrows, Old Ordinary, and Pantico Quarter), counties, Virginia[9]

Robert Carter died 4 Aug 1732 at Corotoman, Lancaster, Virginia and was buried at Christ Church.[4] "(see tombstone inscription and pictures). At his death in 1732, his obituary in Gentleman's Magazine described his estate to be "about 300,000 acres of land, about 1000 Negroes, 10,000 pounds in money." The tombstones of Robert and his two wives were placed at the east end of the old Christ Church.
The tombstones have been replaced by the church, and the inscription on his tombstone (taken from the original):

"Here lies buried Robert Carter, Esq., an honourable man, who by noble endowments and pure morals gave lustre to his gentle birth. Rector of William and Mary, he sustained that institution in its most trying times. He was Speaker of the House of Burgesses, and Treasurer under the most serene Princes William, Anne George I and II. Elected by the House its Speaker six years, and Governor of the Colony for more than a year, he upheld equally the regal dignity and the public freedom.

Entertaining his friends kindly, he was neither a prodigal nor a parsimonious host.

By these wives he had many children, on whose education he expended large sums of money. At length, full of honours and of years, when he had performed all the duties of an exemplary life, he departed from this world on the 4th day of August, in the 69th year of his age. The unhappy lament their lost comforter, the widows their lost protector, and the orphans their lost father."

Robert married Elizabeth Landon on 9 Apr 1701 in , , Virginia, USA. Elizabeth was born in 1683 in Credenhill, Hereford, England; died on 3 Jul 1719 in Williamsburg, Independent Cities, Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

WILLIAM FITZHUGH Compiled by Janice L. Johns
The British-born William Fitzhugh (1651–1701) was among the first Virginia colonists to establish a dynasty on the land. In this his portrait he looks more like a prominent Londoner than a resident of what was still a colonial backwater. Fitzhugh chose a rural life because it seemed the quickest way to make money; he used slaves to cultivate his 54,000 acres, which were largely in tobacco. He was a self-made man, a successful planter and lawyer, who had accomplished much with the opportunities afforded him in Virginia. “However, Fitzhugh was never entirely comfortable with his achievements, because his newly won wealth was tenuous, given the fluctuation of tobacco prices, and his social position was gained in a largely undeveloped setting where he felt isolated. Virginia was "a strange land" to Fitzhugh, where his peers expected him to project a "creditable" appearance. Once he did so, he could live "comfortably & handsomely." He "never courted unlawful pleasures with women, avoided hard drinking as much as lay in my power, & always avoided feasting." On occasion he entertained visitors with "good wine, . . . three fiddlers, a jester, a tight-rope dancer, [and] an acrobat who tumbled around." He furnished his large, thirteen-room house handsomely, with tapestries and an extraordinary collection of 122 pieces of English silver, much of it engraved with the family crest. The silver answered well Fitzhugh's conflicting urges for moderation and luxury. He termed his collecting both "politic" and "reputable," meaning that silver was a sound financial investment (it could be melted) that at the same time made a social statement about dynasty.” [1]In William’s own words, while addressing his suffering brother barrister Hartwell he wrote as to why he had never had the gout: “I’ll tell you, Sir, I never much frequented Bacchus’ orgies and always avoided Ceres’ shrine, and never was one of Venus’ votaries. To speak (plainly) to you, I never courted unlawful pleasures with women, avoided hard drinking as much as lay within my power, and always avoided feasting and consequently the surfeits occasioned thereby.” From William Fitzhugh and his Chesapeake World, page 46. I find this quote interesting, as we will learn 400 years later from DNA, that he was the father of at least two illegitimate sons. One with Mrs. George Phillips and one probably with Frances (Townsend) Dade Withers Hooe. “It was probably due to William's father Henry's misfortunes that William became successful and wealthy. Henry had made several financial decisions in Bedford England. He made two loans in which he pledged that if he did not pay them off within the year they would double. Whatever he was going to use the money for failed or never took place, resulting in the loss of his possessions to pay off the loan. In addition, as an Alderman, he was fined for not attending meetings. The law stated that if an Alderman did not attend a meeting of the Council, he would be fined. He missed over 60 meetings and as a result of the fines and the debt, he left England for Ireland dying at the age of 51.Probably due to the financial disasters’ of their father, William and Henry and his brother came to the Virginia Colony. William was about 16. It was here that Fitzhugh established what has been called a Virginia Dynasty.” [2] On May 1, 1674 William was married to Sarah Tucker. Sarah was the daughter of Rose Tucker Gerard, a wealthy woman with good family connections in both Virginia and Maryland. In the marriage settlement William received a Negro man and woman, three cows, six ewes and a ram, a number of hogs, a bay gelding, a necklace of pearls, and enough dishes, household furniture and kitchen equipment to set up housekeeping at once. Also, Sarah had been left by her father’s estate, 5,000 pounds of tobacco and an equal share with his other children in the rest of his estate—which she would inherit when she turned 17 years old. When William married his wife she was 11 years old. He sent her to England to be educated for 2 years before she came back to America. The marriage was not consummated until she returned. [3] Captain George Phillips was in command of the “John and Margaret”, a ship that carried tobacco to London. He brought back items from England that were not available in America, like lace, velvet, china, silver, etc. One of the planters who shipped his tobacco with George was William Fitzhugh. The biography of William Fitzhugh (William Fitzhugh and his Chesapeake World) includes several letters in which he mentioned. The book also mentions that William Fitzhugh liked to socialize with his sea captains and their families. According to a DNA sample done on one of Mr. Phillips's descendents in 2010, it seems Mr. Fitzhugh socialized a little too closely with the wife of Captain George Phillips. The timing must have worked out well for Mr. Fitzhugh and Mrs. Phillips, because George named his PRESUMED son George Phillips (Jr.) who was probably born about 1691 or 1692. A ccording to vestry registers of Saint Peter's and Saint Paul's parishes, George Phillips Jr. had at least four sons, John, Richard, George, and James. The two counties where this family lived in the early years were New Kent and Hanover. Both of these are burned counties; all the early records are gone.“Fitzhugh is famous for his many letters on various subjects. He wrote several on slavery and said that the only thing he regretted about America was the lack of good schools. He wrote "Good education of children is almost impossible and better to be never born than ill bred." [4] According to the codicils to his will, William must have made a trip back to England in July 1701. He died October 21, 1701 supposedly from “a bloody flux” contracted from French refugees he had befriended. There is much more to be learned from “William Fitzhugh and his Cheasapeake World.” It is not a family history, but a compilation of the letters he wrote during his lifetime. The letters are mostly business related, but good family information can be gleaned. The book is available through interlibrary loan.

(Since Willoughby Allerton was the son of Isaac Allerton and Elizabeth Willoughby, this connection would make him the brother of Rosemund, uncleof Sarah Tucker, and grand uncle of his wife (this does not seem likely). It was suggested that Rosemund Tucker was the daughter of Isaac Allerton and Fear Brewster, in which case she would have been the sister of Isaac Allerton and aunt of Willoughby, making Sarah Tucker his cousin and Rosemund Fitzhugh his 1st cousin once removed.)
Thomas and Ann Sturman did have a daughter, Rosemond, mentioned in Ann's will of 1654, who was living in England at the time of her mother's death [Fleet, Beverly, Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Vol. XXIII, Westmoreland Co., 1653-57, online at Ancestry.com]
Isaac Allerton is listed in Mayflower Increasings as the son of Isaac Allerton, Mayflower immigrant, and Fear Brewster.

Isaac Allerton m. Elizabeth Willoughby and had issue:
Elizabeth Allerton b. 27 Sep 1653
Isaac Allerton b. 11 Jun 1655

There is not a Rose or Rosanna listed in this database.

Married Well and Often, marriages of the north neck of Virginia, indicates that John Newton married Rose Tucker Garrard, daughter of Isaac Allerton.

From Colonial Virginians and their Maryland relatives by Norma Tucker

No proof has been located to establish the maiden name of Rose who married John Tucker but some facts suggest her identity. The March 1708 Westmoreland County Court ordered John Wheeler to pay 400 pounds of tobacco to Rosanna Gerard proving that Rose's name was actually Rosanna. There is but one Rosanna among the Westmoreland families closely associated with Westmoreland Tuckers. That was Rosanna Sturman, whose family came from Maryland to Northumberland County to Westmoreland County. John Tucker also came first to Northumberland County, then to Westmoreland County. And Rose and John Tucker of Westmoreland County gave power of attorney in Northumberland County, 7 Aug 1667 to James Claughton. Therefore Norma Tucker hpothesizes that Rose Tucker Gerard Newton was Rosanna Sturman, daughter of Thomas and Ann (Porter) Sturman. Ann Sturman's 1654 will named daughter Rosanna, then in England. No last name appears in the will, so whether Rosanna was single, married to John Tucker, or married to someone else does not appear there. On 8 July 1709, Rose Tucker Gerard Newton gave her age as "80 or thereabouts" [and according to International Marriage records she was born in 1629]. Her Tucker children were apparently born between about 1663 and 1671, as she could have been the Rosanna Sturman in England when her mother wrote her will.

Kennedy identified the Rose who married John Tucker as a daughter of Isaac Alleron. This was an error, as the line of the first Issac Allerton (who came on the Mayflower and spent time in Massachusetts, in England, in Maryland, and in Virginia) has been thouroughly researched and she does not appear there. In addition, the Isaac Allerton cited as husband was at least two generations younger than Rose. Apparently Kennedy confused one of Rose's descendants with Rose. Another source says that Thomas Gerard (who married John Tucker's widow) married (1) Susanne Snow and married (2) Rose Fitzburg in England, but John Tucker's widow would have been Rose Tucker at her marriage to Gerard, so Thomas Gerard may have been married three times, or that researcher's data may have been in error.

Capt William Tucker b. 7 Jan 1589 in Cornwall England and Died in Elizabeth City, VA in 1644
Capt. William Tucker was responsible for brutally suppressing the Powhatan Indians in 1623

William Tucker was Kecoughtan's first representative in the house of Burgesses.

'By 1616, there were about 20 English inhabitants at Kecoughtan, and most were engaged in farming. In 1619, Kecoughtan's first two representatives in the House of Burgesses were Captain William Tucker and William Capps. Tucker was the military commander of Kecoughtan and Capps an early landowner on the west side of the Hampton River. At the first session of the legislature, the two men petitioned the Assembly 'to change the savage name of Kicowtan, and to give that Incorporation a new name.' In 1620, the name 'Elizabeth City' was adopted, and it served as the county's name until 1952. '

'In May 1623 the colonists arranged a spurious peace parley with Opechancanough through friendly Indian intermediaries. On May 22, Captain William Tucker and a force of musketeers met with Opechancanough and other prominent Powhatans on neutral ground along the Potomac River, allegedly to negotiate the release of the other captives. But Tucker's objective was the slaughter of Powhatan leaders. After the captain and the Indians had exchanged 'manye fayned speeches,' approximately 200 of the Powhatans who had accompanied their leaders unwittingly drank poisoned wine that Jamestown's resident physician and later governor, Dr. John Pott, had prepared for the occasion. Many of the Indians fell sick or immediately dropped dead, and Tucker's men shot and killed about 50 more. Some important tribal members were slain, but Opechancanough escaped, and with him went any hopes of a quick return for the captured women. Between May and November of that same year, the colonists ravaged the Powhatans throughout Tidewater Virginia. The 'fraudulent peace' had worked, and the Indians had planted corn 'in great abundance' only to see Englishmen harvest it for their own use. Successful raids by the settlers not only proved the undoing of the Powhatans but made fortunes for several Jamestown corn profiteers. These raids against the Indians helped to heal the emotional wounds of the colonists, but victory came at a high price. While the captive women suffered alongside their captors, the Indian war transformed the colony into an even cruder, crueler place than before. The war intensified the social stratification between leaders and laborers and masters and servants, while a handful of powerful men on Virginia Governor Sir Francis Wyatt's council thoroughly dominated the political, economic, and military affairs of the colony. It soon became clear that the fate of the missing women depended not upon official concern or humanitarian instincts but upon the principle that everything and everybody had a price. Near the end of 1623, more than a year and a half after the uprising, the prosperous Dr. Pott ransomed Jane Dickenson and other women from the Indians for a few pounds of trade beads. After her release, Dickenson learned that she owed a debt of labor to Dr. Pott for the ransom he had paid and for the three years of service that her deceased husband had left on his contract of servitude at the time of his death. She complained bitterly that her new 'servitude . . . differeth not from her slavery with the Indians.' By 1624, no more than seven of the fifteen to twenty hostages had arrived in Jamestown. The majority of them returned with Jane Dickenson. Those who did not come back were presumed killed during the 1622 attack, although one captive, Anne Jackson, was not returned until 1630. Mistress Boyse, the first of the missing women to rejoin the colony, was not mentioned in official records following her return. Another of the captives, Mistress Jeffries, died within a few months of her release. Anne Jackson probably returned to the colony badly broken from the consequences of her captivity, for in 1630 the council ordered that she 'bee sent for England with the first opportunity,' with the stipulation that her brother take care of her until she was on board a ship. Nothing more was heard of Jane Dickenson after she petitioned the council in March 1624 for release from her 'slavery' with Dr. Pott.'
