It is the same property that is now Forest Lawn Cemetery. As far as I can tell, John Carter never married and had no children. Samuel had a son, John E. Carter that was born around 1813 and married Susan Woodfin, daughter of George Woodfin. But, I don't think this is who you're looking for either. Sorry I couldn't be of any help.
