Hurshel and Glyn Carter were born to Reecie Lillian Dawson and her first husband, Roy Carter. During the time she was married to Cyrus Boyd Adsit, the boys took the name of Adsit as their surname. They used that surname throughout their lives. No records have been found to show that Boyd adopted them.
Note: Glyn's granddaughter told me that the boys were told there was a formal adoption by Boyd Adsit. Her brother may have the adoption records, but they may have been destroyed in the Oklahoma City bombing.
