Salona (McLean, Va.)
[40] _Alexandria Gazette_, May 7, 1803. Although this marriage was
performed by the pastor of the Presbyterian Meeting house, it did not
take place in the church and is not listed in the church records.

[42] Ibid., pp. 182-3.
[43] Ibid., pp. 183, 273. Here is one of the sources of confusion, as
Lee states on page 183 that Henrietta was "married secondly to the
Rev. William Maffit (sic) of South Carolina."

[63] Unsigned, undated note (1977) from Sabine Hall to the author
states that these dates are in a family Bible at the hall. No
marriage dates were sent, although they had been requested.
[64] Robert Carter Randolph, _The Carter Tree_ (Richmond, Va.: By the
author, 1951), omits any mention of offspring of Ann's first marriage
but does list William Maffitt, II, as the only child of her second
marriage. However, the American Genealogical Research Institute,
History of the Carter Family_ (Washington, D.C.: 1972) states that
four children were born to Charles and Nancy Carter: John Hill who
never married; Susan, who married the Rev. Thomas Balch, pastor of
the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church; Mary Walker, who married
Commodore Thomas ap Catesby Jones; and Elizabeth, who married Alfred
Carter. Apparently the Carter children, the young Turberville boys,
and the Maffitts all lived together as one family after the
Maffitt-Carter marriage.
Charles B. Carter was a cousin of Ann's, who owned "Richmond Hill" in
Richmond County and "Mount Atlas" in Prince William. His grave is at
Mount Atlas and the tombstone bears the dates 1766-1807.
[65] Young William grew up at Salona, received his M.D. from
Columbian College, (later part of George Washington University),
served in the Army Medical Corps, went to St. Louis, Missouri, in
1841, married Julie Chouteau, descendant of a founder of St. Louis,
in 1843, and died there in 1864. It is interesting to note that of
the seven members of his college class, he is the only one for whom
the college does not have a full record.
