4. | Mirabeau Lamar Carter was born in Apr 1848 in Georgia; and died. Notes:
From: "Franklin Ingram"
Subject: [CARTER-L] Mirabeau B. Lamar Carter (GA & TX) & Jesse L. Carter (GA) (1848-1929) from Kindred Carter (c.1750)
Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2003 12:16:49 -0500
Hoping to share information on the ancestors and descendants of Mirabeau B.
Lamar Carter and his brother, Jesse L. Carter.
They were both born in GA (1848-1852) to James D. Carter and his wife, Mary
E. Harris. The parents died about 1854 in Talbot County Georgia. The two
Carter boys were raised by their maternal grandfather, Gray Harris, and/or
their maternal aunt, Julia Amanda Harris who married Thomas Jefferson Ritch.
Mirabeau B. went to Texas. His brother, Jesse L., stayed in GA or maybe
moved to FL. Both had sons, so perhaps some other Carter researcher has
more information and an interest in sharing information on this line of
Carters. DNA evidence is welcomed. :-)
The following is what I have pieced together:
First Generation:
Kindred CARTER married Ruth (--?--). He was born about 1749/50. He died
about 1800 Columbia County Georgia.
Second Generation:
James CARTER was born about 1773 in North Carolina. He married Eleanor
"Ellen" DUCKWORTH, daughter of Jeremiah DUCKWORTH and Christiana RAMSEY,
before 1798, maybe in Warren County Georgia.
Third Generation:
James D. CARTER married Mary E. HARRIS, daughter of Gray HARRIS and Nancy
FULLER, on 8 Jun 1847 in Stewart County Georgia. He died about 1854 in
Talbot County Georgia. Mary E. Harris, his wife, also died about the same
time.
Fourth Generation:
Mirabeau B. Lamar CARTER was born on 8 Apr 1848 in Georgia and died in
Shelby County Texas at the age of 79. (Note that his namesake was a famous
Texan, but Mirabeau was definitely born in Georgia.)
He married Malinda Francis ?Fannie? Harris (kinship, if any, to his
mother's Harris line is unknown).
He appeared in the 14 Aug 1860 Muscogee County Georgia Census, age 12,
living in the household of his maternal grandfather, Gray Harris.
He appeared on the 1880 Sabine County Texas Census (p. 247B) as M. B.
Carter, farmer, age 30, born in Georgia. His father and mother were both
born in Georgia.
Also enumerated was his wife, Fannie Carter, age 26, keeping house, and
born in Mississippi. Both her father and mother were born in Alabama. They
had son, James I. (or J.) Carter, aged 3 and born in Texas, enumerated in
their 1880 household.
Mirabeau B. Carter died on 8 Jan 1928 in Shelby County Texas, at age 79.
He was buried about 10 Jan 1928 in Center Cemetery, Shelby County Texas.
(Note: In the 1880 Sabine Co Texas Census, the household of Alfred P.
Harris was enumerated next door to M. B. Carter. Kinship is unknown, but it
is probable that he was the brother of ?Fannie? Harris Carter. He was:
Alfred P. Harris, farmer, 23, MS (f. AL, m. AL); Sarah J. Harris, keeps
house, wife, 25, Georgia, (f. Georgia, m. Georgia); Lula B. Harris, dau, 3,
Texas; Minnie L. Harris, dau, 2, Texas; Ella M. Harris, dau, 1 Texas; Nora
Harris, dau, 3 mos, Texas.)
Jesse L. CARTER was born about 1852 in Georgia. He appeared on the 14 Aug
1860 Muscogee County Georgia Census, age 8, in the household of his maternal
grandfather, Gray Harris.
He appeared on the 30 Jun 1870 Muscogee County Georgia Census, age 17, in
the household of his maternal Aunt and her husband, Thomas & Julia Amanda
Harris Ritch.
He appeared on the 1880 Muscogee County Georgia Census (p. 612C), as J. L.
Carter, age 27, and born in Georgia; also enumerated was Susan Carter, age
25, and born in Georgia. Susan is presumed to be the mother of his two
sons, but her relationship is listed as ?Other.? Both her father and mother
were born in Georgia. There were two sons: Jim, 3, and Clarence, 1.
