Excerpt from Giles Carter of Virginia: Genealogical Memoir

The object of this memoir is to trace the branch of the Carter family of Virginia from which the author is descended. In pursuit of this object, insistence has been had upon authentic records for all statements of facts; traditions have served only as guides in the search for original records. The incompleteness of the work is fully recognized, but it is hoped that its publication at this time may be the means of more rapidly developing essential facts than has been accomplished through correspondence. The obstacles and delays encountered by the author may be understood from the mere statement that since the researches were begun about six years ago, his orders have required him to visit England and Europe to make certain investigations for the Government, and later to command a Department in the Philippine Islands, involving an absence of more than two years, and that he is now under orders again to proceed to foreign service.
