    3. -----Original Message----- From: tpcarter [mailto:tpcarter@swbell.net Subject: William Carter My grgrandpa William Carter migrated to Spring Place, Murray County, Georgia in 1846, according to my grandpa's Civil War Pension Application.The 1850 Murray County census shows the following: William Carter, 38, M, b.VA Ann E. , 26, F, b. TN John W. , 15, M. , b.NC Stephen G., 13, M, b.NC (my grandpa) Mary C. , 7, F, b. TN James M., 20 , M. , b. NC I have not been able to trace John's whereabouts, but find where James married Martha Davis from Dalton, GA and settled in Dalton, living along side or across from Nathan Carter, but I have not been able to determine their relationship. William and Ann , after settling in Spring Place, had two other children, as the 1870 Murray County census shows: William Carter, 58, M , W., Carpenter, b. VA Ann E. , 45, F. , W, Housekeeper, b. TN Mary C., 25, F., W. ,b.TN Samuel B., 13, M. , W, farm laborer, b. GA Juda, 1 , F. W , b. GA I believe that Samuel B. is buried in an unmarked grave in Spring Place Cemetery, and 2 of his children are buried there. After the 1870 census, William and Ann disappeared and I have not been able to find them. I do know that William was at one time Postmaster of the the Fort Mountain Post Office in Spring Place, but don't know much more about him. Does anyone have any information on William, Ann E.. or their children Samuel B. and Juda??Any help will be very much appreciated. Tom P. Carter- Houston, TX
