John Carter

Parents:

• Birth: John Carter was born in 1802 at Chailey, Sussex, England^B.
• Baptism*: John Carter was baptized on 9 May 1802 at St Peter's, Chailey, Sussex, England^B.¹
• He was the son of Cephas Carter and Martha Scot.
• Anecdote*: Place of birth given as Cuckfield, Sussex in the 1861 census.²
• Anecdote: Place of birth given as Hosted corne [Horsted Keynes?], Sussex in the 1851 census.³
• Anecdote: The place of birth given for John Carter and wife Mary on the 1851 and 1861 census returns are confused and unreliable. According to these, one was born in Cuckfield and the other at Horsted Keynes. The 1841 census at Hortsed Keynes lists a family of Carters which includes an older person, Cephas Carter. Investigation of Cephas and his family reveals that he is the likely father of John Carter because:
  1. Cephas married Martha Scot at Horsted Keynes in 1798, hence a strong connection to Horsted Keynes.
  2. Cephas and Martha moved about and had children in Horsted Keynes, Chailey, Plumpton and Streat. He returned to Horsted Keynes where he died in 1842.
  3. Cephas had a son John (1800) and another son Richard (1802) at Chailey which matches their ages (but not their places of birth) in the 1861 census where they are listed as brothers. Richard gives his place of birth as Horsted Keynes.
  4. The John Carter (1800) named his first child Martha, his mother's name.
  Based on this, I believe that John Carter gave his place of birth as Horsted/Horsted Keynes as this is where the family was centred, even though he was baptised at Chailey.
