    Notes:

On August 11, 1673, in Isle of Wight County, Thomas married 18 year old, Magdalen Moore, born 1652, in Isle of Wight County, a daughter of George Moore and Jane Barcroft. [1]

    Thomas and Madalene were given on 11 August 1673, by her father, George Moore, some 400 acres to commemorate their marriage. This was part of the Blackwater Swamp, patented on 5 May 1669, called the 2nd swamp of the Blackwater, beginning at the mouth of a small branch ... at one of Capt. Wombrell's corner trees. On 30 December 1700, Magdelin and Martha confirmed to "son George Carter" 200 of those 400 acres given the couple by George Moore. Witnessed by "Wm Brown, Saml. Griffin" [2]

    Thomas and Magdalen became the parents of thirteen children, born in Nanticoke, Isle of Wight County, including:

    Edward Carter, born 1673, in Nanticoke, Isle of Wight County, died 1736, in New Hanover Precinct, (now Duplin County, N.C.)

    Thomas Carter, IV, born circa 1685, married Elizabeth
    Samuel Carter, born circa 1686

    Thomas Carter III died before April 10, 1710 at "Nanticoke," his plantation north of Raynor between Mill and Pouches Swamps near Blackwater River in Isle of Wight County, Virginia. April 10 1710 was the date his Will was probated at Isle of Wight County, Virginia Colony. He left his estate to his wife and also, "unto my daughter Martha the plantation which I now live on, as long as she lives after my loving wife" and "after my daughter Martha [dies] I give the plantation to my son Alexander. [3]

    Researchers Notes
    In a posting on Genforum by Horace Fussell Jr., on January 16, 1999, he had access to some of the work of the late William (Bill) L. Murphy who was a Carter descendant. In 1983 Mr. Murphy donated a painting of Thomas Carter III to the Duplin County Historical Society's McEachern Library of Local History located in Rose Hill, NC. On the back of the painting is the inscription, "Thomas Carter III, son of Thomas Carter II. Born circa 1650 Isle of Wight County, Va. Died 1710 at "Nanticoke," his plantation north of Raynor between Mill and Pouches Swamps near Blackwater River in Isle of Wight County, Va. Married 1673 Magdalen, daughter of Lt. George Moore and Jane Barcroft, by whom he had eight sons and one daughter."   Mr. Fussell goes on to say, "The painting is still in its original Baroque frame and inscribed on one of the original stretchers was "Tho Carter/Nanticoke/Isle of Wight 1697." Painting was brought into North Carolina by his son Edward who died in New Hanover Precinct, now Dupplin County, N.C. in 1736."

    Notes:

    James and Kindred Carter moved to Warren County, Ga. around 1780. Kindred was the ancestor of President Jimmy Carter. "Kindred Carter settled in Richmond Co., Ga. on the frontier of the new state along Little Germany Creek. This land became part of Columbia Co. in 1790 and is now in McDuffie Co. lying approximately 35 miles west of Augusta along the old Augusta - Wrightsboro Road. At Kindred's death in 1800, his estate was divided five ways, although only four heirs are known " from an article written by Kenneth H. Thomas, Jr. Historical researcher , Ga. Dept. of Natural Resources. The article goes on to list the different heirs of the two brothers.

    Kindred Carter (c. 1750-1800) came to Georgia from the Bertie-Edgecombe-Hertford area of northeastern North Carolina where his family had lived for several generations. He was of the 5th generation in descent from Thomas Carter, Sr. who came in 1637 from England to Isle of Wight County, Virginia. Thomas Carter's only known child was Thomas, Jr., who married Magdalene Moore and left a will in 1710. In that will, Thomas, Jr. did not name all of his children, but Moore Carter (c. 1680-1741) who married Jane and moved to Bertie County, North Carolina, is believed to have been his son. Moore left a will naming a son Isaac who married Ruth and died after 1790. Isaac and Ruth were the parents of Kindred and James, among others. Kindred and James both came to Georgia.

    Kindred Carter settled in Richmond County, on the frontier of the new state, along Little Germany creek. This land is now part of McDuffie County, approximately 35 miles west of Augusta, Georgia. At his death in 1800, his estate listed four heirs:
