Notes:

Married:
The listing on FindAGrave shows their date of marriage as 20 Nov 1836, in Amite County, Mississippi. This should be verified, however, as she would have been only 14, and the date of birth Americus, her eldest son, was some three years later.

Notes:

The "Family of William Carterr" website instead shows he was born in Orangeburg District, South Carolina. Said to be a son of Isaac Carter of Cumberland County, North Carolina.
