I am currently researching the Carter family and in paticular descendants of Cooley Carter born in 1798. I believe his father was Thomas Carter. My great grandfather was Frederick George Carter (son of Cooley) born in 1845 in Bury.

Lynne,
The 1841 census lists Coley [?] Carter, 42, wheelwright, with Elizabeth, 39, John, 15, Anthony, 12, Mary, 10, Elizabeth, 8, Hannah, 6, Benjamin, 5 and Sarah, 1. [Reference: HO107/448 Folio 7 Page 10]
The 1851 census shows Cooley, 51, a wheelwright and, by this time, a widower, living with 5 sons and daughters in Bury, Huntingdonshire -- Elizabeth, 18, Hannah, 17, Benjamin, 14, Alfred, 9 and Frederic, 7. [Reference: HO107/1749 Folio 43 Page 6]
The 1861 census has Cooley, 61, with wife Mary, 72, daughter [or perhaps step-daughter?], Lucy Scott, 23, and sons Alfred, 19, and Frederick, 17. All the men are carpenters and Lucy is a dressmaker. [Reference: RG9/976 Folio 30 Page 15]
It looks like Cooley Carter married Mary Scot in 1853 in St. Ives. [Refrerence: volume 3b page 482]
The 1871 census has wheelwright Cooley, 71, and wife Mary, 72, living with Lucy and granddaughter Annie Scott, 8. [Reference: RG10/1528 Folio 31 Page 15]
