Descendants of Martha "Patty" Carder Bennett

(died 1850) of Culpeper County, VA and Taylor County, WV

Martha “Patty” Carder was born in Culpeper County, Virginia. According to a letters written in 1878-1880 by her great grandson J.N. Carder, she was a sister of John Carder (1767-1850) of Culpeper County, VA and Taylor County, WV. According to the same letter, she had two boys by Frederick Duncan of Culpeper County. It does not appear that she and Frederick Duncan were ever married. Frederick Duncan lived next to Geroge Carder near Battle Mountain in the part of Culpeper County that later became Rappahannock County. George Carder also purchased land from William and Frederick Duncan in Hampshire County, WV in 1801. On the same day, George Carder sold 100 acres of this land to Martha’s brother John Carder. On 15 November 1792 Martha “Patty” Carder married William Bennett in Culpeper County. This is documented in the Culpeper County marriage records as well as in the letters written by J.N. Carder. She died in 1850 at the home of her daughter Sarah Coffman in Taylor County and is buried at the old place where she lived. Not much other information is known about her at this time.  Frederick Duncan was born about 1770 and married Susanna Stallard in 1797 in Culpeper County, Va.

Julia Ann was born in Warren County, Ohio. She was a daughter of Garrett P. Wikoff and Phoebe Cox. Frederick B. and Julia Ann Wikoff Carder are buried outside of Edenton, Clermont County, Ohio, close to Stonelick Lake. About 1841-1842 Frederick Carder moved to Campbell County, Kentucky, where he is listed in the 1850 census as a farmer. Some time after 1850 he moved back to Ohio. It is possible that Frederick Carder is closely related to Washington Carder (1811-), who lived in the same area of Ohio. Frederick named one of his sons Washington Carder. According to Mildred Mooney Fields, her great grandfather Frederick B. Carder was part Indian and of French Canadian descent. Her mother told her this.
