The Darter-Tarter Family


Book Description

Johann and Elizabeth Darter emigrated from Germany arriving in Phila- delphia with their five sons, Nicholas, Jacob, Balzer, Peter and Alexander. It is not known how long the German couple stayed in Philadelphia area. Son Nicholas (1746-1821) was in North Carolina because he married Maria Parcell in Lincoln Co., North Carolina and had five children born there before coming to Wytheville, Virginia, ca. 1780. The history of Darter-Tarter family in America begins with Nicholas, and to a somewhat lesser extent with his brot- hers. There are two distinct Darter families in America today. One is the above mentioned family of German origin and the other is of English origin. They are the descendants of William Darter (1680- 1777), who arrived in America in 1697 and settled in Accomac Co., Va. He is the forefather of the Delaware Darter/Daughters family (his descendants assumed the name Daughters). Descendants of the Darter brothers live in Virginia, Kentucky, Tenne- ssee, Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oregon, Kansas, California and elsewhere.
