CARTER, CHARLES, Rev War VA Line, #S3125
30 November 1832: State of Tennessee, Smith County
On this 30 day of November personally appeared in open Court before
John Chambers Isaac Goodall Jos D McAvoy, the Court of Pleas & Quarter
Sessions for said County now setting, Charles Carter, a resident of the
County of Smith and the State of Tennessee, aged seventy years the 3rd
day of September 1832, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth
on his oath, make the following
Declaration, in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress passed
June 7, 1832.
That he entered the service of the United States under the following
named officers, and served as herein stated - Applicant was born in the
county of Dinwiddie - State of Virginia on the third day of September
1762 as appears from a record now in his possession which he copied from
his fathers family Bible about forty years ago. Applicant was living in
Dinwiddie County when called into service where he had lived from the day
of his birth. He was called into service in the year 1778 & thinks it
was in the month of September of that year. He was enrolled in the
company of Capt. Peterson Goodwin in 1778 and called into service and
served in the capacity of what was called a minute man - the company
to which he was attached immediately marched to what was called Cabbin
point below Petersburg and joined a Regiment but does not remember who
commanded it he recollects that Maj Holt commanded in that capacity. The
Regiment marched from Cabin point to Smithfield where the company to
which applicant was attached was discharged - Applicant served six weeks
in this tour - Shortly after returning
from the first tour of service he was again called out into service under
Capt Hardimay & Maj. Holt & joined the Regiment at Petersburg - The Regt
marched from Petersburg to Richmond and was there commanded by Generals
Demarcus and Mulinburg. He was discharged between Petersburg & Richmond
but cannot say how long he was out. Sometime after returning from the
2nd tour he was again called
out under Capt. Pegram & was marched to Richmond - there to Petersburg
where he joined the Regiment of which Holt acted as Major but does not
recollect the General - From Petersburg the Regiment was marched to
Smithfield - from there to the burnt mills and there discharged -
Applicant will here state that while in service under Capt Hardemay as
above stated & while at Cabin point there was an artilery company who
were discharged for a time, & a new company was raised by taking five
from each company of the Regiment which was allowed to volunteer if they
thought proper & if they would not were to be drafted - They were drafted
in every company except Capt Hardemay's - Applicant volunteered & induced
four others to join him & become attached to the artilery company. The
artilery company marched to the burnt mills & continued in service about
one month when when [sic] the regular artilery company assumed their
duties. From the year 1778 until 1781 applicant was kept in constant
readiness and a minute man & was in service almost the whole of that time
in short periods of service - The
duties he had to perform will be understood by the department and are
very similar to those performed by a regular - He was kept on the roll
untill peace was made & in effect continued to serve from the time he was
enrolled until peace was made which was 3 years - He cannot now recollect
the names of any of
the commanding officers except those above mentioned as he entered the
service at 16 years of age and was very young during the whole time he
was in service - Applicant as above stated lived in the county of
Dinwiddie when called into service - After the war he moved to Maclenburg
county Vir. & there lived upwards of 40 years [until c1820-mlj] - He then
moved to Roan county Tennessee & lived there nearly 2 years [until
c1822-mlj] from there he moved to Smith County Tennessee where he has
lived since that time. Applicant never recd a written discharge for his
service owing to the nature of it. A minute man being held in readiness
like a regular Soldier was never discharged for any deffinate period - he
would be allowed to home until an emergency occurred for calling him into
service again which, in many instances, would be in a few days after his
return from service - He was kept in the same readiness at home when not
in actual service that he would have been if in the camp.
Applicant can prove his service as above stated by John Bonner a
respectable citizen of Wilson County Ten who has known applicant from his
boyhood & is acquainted with his service - his certificate will be hereto
annexed. He hereby relinquishes every claim whatever to a pension or
annuity except the present, and declares that his name is not on the
pension roll of the agency of any state. Sworn to and subscribed the day
& year aforesaid.

We, John Segon, a Clergy man residing in the County of Smith, State

?assessment.
[Both Signed] John Segon; John Bonner

at Cabbin Point attached to a
company of artilery - Affiant marched with Carter from Cabbin Point to
