of London, England and
Jamestown and Surry Co Virginia
This is my working hypothesis - the way I see it as of this moment!!
1 March 1622/23 William Carter first appears in the records of James City County.
He with some other young men were brought to account for killing
and eating a calf
(Journal of the Council and Gen. Ct of VA, pp3-4).
In 1624 he was single and living on James City Island.
ca 1625/29 he
married possibly two of his three wives.
Either #1 Avis Turtley or #2 Ann
Mathis was the one whom the court reprimanded in 1629 for calling
"Cozen Gray's wife" a whoore" (Journals, pp 197-98).
By 20 May 1636 he was married in Surry Co VA to his third wife Alice Croxon of
London.
He had died by 1655.
1655/57 His widow married 2nd
Capt. Giles Parke of Surry, who was dead by 5 Nov 1657.
1663/64 this William Carter appeared posthumously as one of the headrights
of Edmund Scarburgh.
ca 1667/68 - William Carter's widow married 3rd Edward Warren.

Hello,
The above William Carter is my ancestor, and I have been researching
this line. My copy of "The Carters of Virginia" by Noel Currer-
Briggs, has the father of William as John Carter and an unknown first
wife. Besides William, other children of this marriage were, George, the
vintner, ca 1595-1673, Anne, Elizabeth, Silvester, Mary, and Isabel.
Children of his marriage to Bridget Benion were : Thomas, John , and
Robert. Brothers Thomas and John, as well as their half brother,
William, emigrated to America. My line from William goes as follows:
William married in Surry County, VA to Alice Croxon. Their son,
George, born 1636/38, died 1664/65, married Mary ? Their daughter,
Elizabeth, married Robert Crawford (Crafford), their daughter,
Sarah Patience Crawford married John Newsom, (my line), Sarah's sister,
Elizabeth, married John's brother, Thomas.
Regards,
Kent Pusser
