Elizabeth Turner was Israel Carter's "2nd" wife, "not" his first wife.

Israel Carter was "first" married to Mariah Felder (Memorial #160770698) who died in 1863.

The person who created Mariah Felder's page incorrectly shows her husband as an Isaac Felder and incorrectly linked him to her page as her husband. This person also incorrectly linked this Isaac Carter to Israel and Mariah's son Isaac Felder Carter as his father. I have notified this person of these two errors and have submitted the same evidence that I have submitted to you with additional notes.

Israel Carter and 1st wife Mariah (Felder) Carter were the parents of the following children (as listed on the 1850 and 1860 Census records with them):

1. Fenderland Carter
2. Isaac Felder Carter
3. Augustus Carter
4. Laban Carter
5. Elizabeth A. Carter
6. Brazilla/Brazella Carter
7. Evaline/Eveline Carter
