Alvis Jackson is the son of Etta Arnold Jackson (Etta is my great-grandmother Annie Hicks' sister)
Etta and Lena are daughters of George Carter. (George was a first cousin of Annie Hicks.)
Joan Arnold is one of "Uncle George's girls" (Uncle George was Annie's brother)
Noel is the son of Marlie Arnold (Marlie was Annie's brother)

The common ancestor of all these people is Ned Jonas Carter. Ned had 14 children. His first wife was Melinda Clingan. They had 6 children, two of whom died at birth. His second wife was Jane Evans, who brought two children from a previous marriage. She and Ned had 8 more children. One of those children was my great-great-grandmother Adaline, who married John Henry Arnold. (That is the link between the Carter and Arnold families.)
