Surnames: Carter in AL Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SU.2ADI/2378.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi, Thanks for responding. My William Jasper Carter's parents were Richard Wilkins Carter and Elizabeth Davis (I think that's her last name). Jasper was born 14 Mar 1837 in AL. I have found my Carter's in Talladega, Tallapoosa, and Clay Counties in AL. I know it doesn't seem to be a match but I'll go ahead and list what I have. William Jasper was married to "Prity E" (that's what it looks like to me on two different census). They had three children - Sara Alice (married George Heard), Thomas R (my husband's greatgrandfather), and Frances Elixabeth "Fannie" (married a Fuller). If you'd like more info, let me know.
