Jacob Carter also had a son John Carter (c1744-?), my ancestor. I am also a Witherington descendent through Amos III Garris' descendents who ended up in Colleton Co. SC along with the Carters. There are some differing opinions on Jacob's father. Some say it was Moore Carter and some think that it was his brother George.
