  • Notes 
    • There is much confusion over these first American ancestors of John Carter.
      The Cater/Carter family had 4 Richards in the first generations in the New World.
      This is what the first 4 generations of the CATER family should look like:
      Richard Cater I (b.abt 1595 d. 1679)
      m1 Unknown (ch. Elizabeth)
      m2 Christian Fugg md 1632 (ch. Jane, Edward, Richard)
      m3 Mary Ricord (Richard) md 1672 (no issue)
      Richard Cater II (b. abt 1640 d. 1702)
      m —?— (ch. John, Richard, Edward, Mary)
      Richard Cater III (b. abt 1673 d. 1713)
      m1 Margaret .... (ch Elizabeth, John, Richard, Mary)
      m2 Elizabeth (no issue - his wife when he died)
      Richard Cater/Carter IV (b abt 1698 d. 1753)
      md Sarah Peavey in 1719. [2]
