Hi, my name is Kathleen McCarter and I have read some about my family tree and found all information very interesting. My mother is Rose Marie [Sparks] McCarter and my father is Bernard Roy McCarter. He was born and raised in Sugar Grove Virgina and at age 16 his family moved to Maryland. I would like to hear about more of my family tree if someone can provide more information.

DARNALL LINE

My Great Grand Father was Elim Green Darnall
born in Coles County Ill. buried in KS 1872
1st M. Lucinda Dodson  / 2nd M. Rachel Tingler.

If you are related or related to his siblings or
children, I'd like to connect Darnall family lines.

I have a lot of information on the two brothers (Thomas Hart Benton / John Wesley Darnall ) that worked and raised their families in S.E. Kansas.

It is a wonderful sight to reflect back on my heritage.  Last time I saw the McCarter bunch, (Naomi, Carter, Katie was 10 years ago at a park in Hagerman.  I saw Aunt Eileen and Aunt Irma 2 years ago with Debbie)

After the divorce, I decided to take on my mother's last name- McHan and maiden name Walller.

I am remarried to my lawyer.  We dated 9 years and finally decided to get married.  He is full Norwegian.  James M. Runsvold

Hopefully see you again. Catherine

Nice to hear from you, Cathy. Some of us (Carter, Becky, Joan, Kate, Sue) are on facebook if you want to hunt us up!

My name is Rae Elder Audrain. I am the daughter of Delbert Newton Elder and Albina Ginocchio Elder. I have been trying to find my family on the Elder side. I live in Reno, NV.

When my father was alive, he talked much about Jasper Newton Elder who was his grandfather. In 1947, my mother, father, and I visited the family in Idaho. We went to church and heard Burt Simer preach. I would like to know more about the family and meet them.

My father had been in touch with Paul Simer, who is Emma and Burt's son. Please contact me through my email which is: bergstrom_a@yahoo.com

As a child in elementary school we were asked to write something about a famous person in our family history. I asked my father and he said that Oceanus Hopkins was a direct relative and was the only baby born on the Mayflower. I have never looked into it until now. It is exciting to read a little about a member of the family that played such an important part in history.

Name:

Catherine Senter

Comments:
My grandfather is Samuel Copenhaver Senter, who was the last family member to own the farm land in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia where the family cemetery is located.

The land is no longer owned directly by the family. The home place was actually two houses that were pushed together to form one large home. The "seam" created the dining room. The house was created by rolling the two houses together using logs.

Grandmother's "apple house" was the back section of the house and made of logs. There were old slave quarters on the land which my father remembers pulling down as a child. Slavery was considered wrong by the Bible believing Senters, but they still served the Virginia Confederacy.

Thanks for the additional Senter family info, Catherine.

Alan and Nancy Grindstaff

Comments:
Came upon your website accidentally, but the McCarter name jumped out at me as Alan's grandma (Gaggie) was Stella Harness Grindstaff, Lalla's daughter. He was outside, but I brought him in to look it over, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for your nice work.

You're welcome, Nancy. Thanks for stopping by.

You have the most exciting genealogy site I have ever come across. I came across it by accident while looking for info on Nathaniel Worden and his family. I will be back again to see more of your fascinating family tree and your stories.

Thanks and take care.

Thank you, Loretta. Glad you enjoyed our site!
