Thomas Carter, The Immigrant from England to Virginia

Thomas Carter, the Immigrant, from England to Virginia and Wives Susannah Merry, Penele, and Susanna.

This is the ninth book of my family history. It is a deeper dive into my 1986 book about the Carters of Virginia to Lawrence County, Kentucky, going back three generations to the Carter immigrant Thomas Carter. The book contains almost 400 years of Carter history.

The four volume set is hard bound, indexed, with bibliography, maps, photos, deeds, etc. It is approximately 2,800 pages. The price will be approximately $225 per 4 volume set, plus shipping and handling (this is only the cost of printing which means there is no cost for 40 years of research and compilation!). It will be sent to the printer (Family Heritage) once I have a count of orders, no money need to be sent until the books are printed. You may contact me for the Table of Contents.
