ORANGE5 CARTER (Ebenezer4, Thomas3, 2, Rev. Thomas1) was son of Lieut. Ebenezer 
CARTER and Elizabeth, daughter of Samuel and Rebecca BUELL.  He was born 
December 21, 1774, probably at Warren, Connecticut.  He married in 1797 
Elizabeth RUMSEY, at St. Albans, Vermont.  She was born at Danbury, 
Connecticut, July 20, 1777; died at Darien, January 11, 1847.  He came from 
Darien, New York, to Darien, Wisconsin, where he died September 9, 1855.  Ten 
of his eleven children, or most of these, came early, already or soon 
thereafter so intermarried with several pioneer families of Darien as to make 
the CARTER family record of unusual genealogical interest.  These children, 
born between 1798 and 1818, were: 1. Ann (Mrs. John WILLIAMS, Jr.); 2.  Orra 
(Mrs. Price MATTESON); 3.  Daniel married Maria MATTESON; 4.  Sabra (Mrs. 
Zebulon T. LEE); 5.  Harriet (Mrs. Leander DODGE); 6.  Ackley married Melissa 
HOUGH; 7.  Lucy (Mrs. Asa FOSTER); 8.  William Thurston married Adeline M. 
SEAVER; 9.  Orange Walker married twice; 10.  Betsey Irena (Mrs. John L. 
WARD).  It is not known that Daniel CARTER came westward.
