WILL: Capt. Carter's will, dated Aug. 16, 1700 was probated Nov. 14, 1700 by his second son Thomas Carter, Jr. He divided his estate as follows: Wife Catharine to have the home plantation for the rest of her life, a negro man named Dick, the great table, and one-third of the remainder of his personal property. Sons Edward, Thomas, Henry (then in Englant) and John to each have a hundred acres of land; son James to have the land devised to Henry if the latter did not return from England. Daughters Elizabeth and Katharine, and sons Peter and Joseph had been provided for by their grandfather Dale. Son-in-law William George to account for 1,560 pounds of tobacco that he had advanced him on the Dale estate due to his wife from her grandfather. Son Thomas to have the home plantation after the death of his mother. The rest of his real and personal estates to be divided equally between all children. Capt. Carter sealed his will with a seal showing the crest of his father-in-law, Edward Dale, which doubtless was more convenient at the time of signing the paper than his own seal. The original papers in Virginia show numerous examples of men using some other family seal than their own, though they are known to have possessed one with their own crest on it. The personal estate amounted to 236 pounds and included a "parcel of old Bookes", a silver drinking pot, tankard, and twelve silver spoons, beside the usual household and plantation furnishings of a man of his class.

Edward Dale, his grandsons Peter and Joseph Carter inherited his home plantation of some six hundred acres in St. Mary's White Chapel parish, a negro man servant each, and other personal property, when they arrived at the age of twenty-one years. In January, 1712, Peter and Joseph Carter being above the age of twenty-one years devided this plantation, and probably went to live on it, as ever after that he appeared in the records as Joseph Carter, "Planter" or "Gent. of St. Mary's White Chapel parish." In 1724 he added to his farm a tract of 133 acres from John Marshall, and April 11, 1740, a hundred acres from his nephew Aaron Carter, son of Peter Carter, possession of which was given in the old English fashion "by the delivery of Turfe and twigg in the name and token of seizen of all land and premises within mentioned in the presence of Dale Carter, Wm. George, and Gawin Lowry."
