Hi, Betty!  Since I was born in Lee County, MS, next door to Pontotoc,
perhaps I can give you a little information that might help.  Many residents
of *Chester* County moved to old Pontotoc County, MS (which was the parent
county of Union, Tippah, and Lee, at least in part).  So many moved there,
in fact, that there is a community called "Chesterville"!  You might give a
look/see in Chester County, since you can't locate them in Chesterfield.
Checking the 1790 census for Chester County (online at the site below, soon
to be indexed), I find 5 Carters, 2 Youngs, and 3 Roberts.  I realize these
are too early for your people, but they could be parents.  Maybe?  If you
have a glimmer that these folks are actually Chester Countians, please stop
by the website and post a query!  There are several Young queries and at
least one Carter query already posted there.  Have a look and see if any
match!

I'd rather be looking for dead people than have them looking for me!
