Am researching Green Carter who may have been the son of Wiley Carter. Green supposedly ran away and he ended up in Wayne County, Illinois. He and his sister Minerva may have been orphaned and left together at ages 12 and 14. The family story was that he ran away to join the Union army. He probably lied about his age to enlist. He said he was born 1843 in Humphreys County. Wiley and his younger Green were in Gibson County in 1850. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Jan
