I researched the Alabama, Crenshaw Co. Carters for my mother-in-law Frankie June Carter. She is dau of Henderson Frank, son of Henderson Frank, son of Benjamin H. He was born in SC as was his wife Drucilla Jane Dillashaw, she of French descent. Ben served in the Alabama 33rd out of Dale county where he lived at the time. He survived the war to live and work at Dennerd's Bluff, Monrow Co., Alabama as a (sic) millir. Drucilla (called Jane) returned to Crenshaw county apparently a widow to live with her son William and family. William (Wild Bill) was killed in a famous knife fight in late 1890's. There is a plaque with his name and others in a cemetery in Brantley. If you need more detailed stuff, I will get my Carter info out of storage and send you. Good luck-the Carter stuff is interesting.
