I am wondering what proof you have that your Sarah and Richard Carter who went to IL were the same Richard Carter who married Sarah Windrow in Williamson County, TN?
I have Richard dieing in Williamson County, TN before 1815.An inventory of his estate was done there in April 1815 and Sally Carter was one of the person listed as buying things at the estate sale.
Sally Windrow Carter left a Non-Cupative will in Williamson County, TN when she died in Jan 1852.Her son, John R. Carter was the administrator.
John R. Carter was made Admr.Sarah Carter Deceased left the following heirs:
John R. Carter
James G. Carter
William F. Carter
Mary (she married Thomas Polmore)
Sarah (she married Pleasant R. Brim)
Coleman F. Carter
Ruth (she married James H. Glenn)
Sarah Brim and Ruth Glenn are the daughaters of Jane Christopher, who was the daughter of Sarah Carter, deceased.Sarah Ann Elizabeth Glenn was another deceased daughter of Sarah Carter, deceased.The estate of Sarah Carter, deceased was to be divided into 7 shares.Sarah Carter, deceased was the Admrx. of Richard Carter, deceased.Richard Carter died in 1815 or 1816.He left a widow and 8 children.He died intestate.His children were: John R.
