Hi, it's me again. My ggfather was Henry Y. Carter, who was a Civil War Veteran. He was married to Mariah Harrell in Amite County, MS, and they moved to Bienville Parish in 1865. He died in 1885, burial place unknown. His mother was Martha Raborn. She died in Mississippi, but had at least three brothers, Henry, Elzy, Joseph, probably others, who moved to Bienville, probably around 1850. After Henry's death, his wife and then grown children all moved to Red River County, TX, where they all spent the rest of their lives. I know there were several other families, McCoy, McGuire, Hudson, and others, who made this move about the same time. They all settled in the same neighborhood in Red River County. I am curious if anyone knows other families who made this move at the same time. This was in the mid 1890s. Thanks to everyone for the wonderful job you are doing on the Bienville Web Page.
