CARTER posted by Jerry Wright Jordan on Saturday, June 29, 1996

Looking for the parents of Isaac Coleman Carter, born 5 Nov 1859/1860 (conflicting data on year). Nothing is known about his family or where in KY he was born. However, he did name a son Joseph Coleman Carter, Jr (even though his name was Isaac Coleman Carter). Dr Joseph Coleman Carter who lived and died in Woodford Co. Is there a connection?
Isaac Coleman Carter was living in Red River Co., TX when he entered the Kentucky School of Medicine in 1884. He was not on the census of Red River Co., TX in 1880, however. Isaac graduated in 1885 and set up his practice in TX. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for any info on the LaFOE's and SAMUEL's in Woodford County. Zachariah LaFOE married Emily SAMUELS 9-20-1821 in Caroline County, Virginia but on 4-30-1833, Zach, Emily and a James SAMUELS purchased 94 acres on the Kentucky River at the end of what is now Watts Ferry Road. The family owned the land until it was sold by William and Selena LaFOE HALL in the early 1900's. Can not find if James SAMUELS was Emily's father or not, and found an Elizabeth that lived a couple miles north of the LaFOE's along the river that could be her mother. A number of the family still lives in the Versailles area. Any help or info would be much appreciated. Robert E. LaFoe
