Carter-17730 and Carter-42327 appear to represent the same person because: I created Hannah Burrall thinking her maiden name was Hanford but is actually Carter. In the probate records, her married name is Burrall nor Burwell. Her husband Jonathan may be the brother of Col. Charles Burrall. The children mentioned in her probate records align with Hannah Carter.
