At least 50 people in more than 50 years have >not been able to find out any more than the fact that they were married in >Shenandoah, Virginia. John Carter lived in Gallia County for about 60 >years, had nine children and score of grandchildren. None of the books on >John and Mary are correct, files are missing. The Will book states that >John has a will on file, however, it has been gone for more than the four >years I have been working on the Carter's. There has to be something that >gives some information about John and Mary's family and place of birth! If >anyone has any suggestions about where to find this information, I am open >for anything.
