Lucinda have an intresting encounter during the Civil War. According to Daniel Ellis,1867, he states when Confederate Col. James Keith and his men came riding up Shelton Laurel and Massacred possibly more than 13 men and boys and women at two different times. They went by Lucinda Carter's home and killed her 14 hogs and laid them in side her home in a pile and then killed her dog and laid it on top the hogs.
According to the two pages of our family Bible ( American Standard ) that her grand daughter carried with her out to California in 1945, these pages are old, but hard to figure out when it the first entry was made, but several people including Lucinda's grand daughter made a lot of names and dates.
Entry's in this Bible could have started by her daughter Elizabeth, for the 1850 census states that she was the only one that could read and write at that time, but the Elizabeth died in 1852.
