NN Carter (Benion) - Parents of N.N. Carter (Benion)

There is a curator note on Isabel Benion that she is not the mother of the wife of John Carter

Leanne, there are curator notes and Overview notes on all the profiles.

They are contradicting each other.

That's the problem.

According to what I'm seeing in Ancestry trees, this N.N. Benion is the same person as John's wife Bridget Binion and that he didn't marry two women with the Binion maiden name, just the one.

But that brings into question the fact that they have a son named Thomas Carter of Nansemond and William Thomas Carter of Surry. It's possible they gave Thomas as a name to two sons, but is it documented that Willam's middle name actually was Thomas? I've seen so many profiles were somewhere down the lines middle names got attached to people that can't be proven to have been their name. So it always makes me want to make sure.

Captain William Carter, I, of Surry

You mean John Carter

As I said, John is Bridget's husband. The link for Capt. William is their son that I was wondering if Thomas was actually his middle name or if that just got thrown in later since he has a brother named Thomas.
