[cos1776 Abstract - Carrie's father (Dr. John Sen Trescot) died in intestate in 1820 leaving two young daughters. Carrie's mother (Caroline C. Trescot) married Charles Follin and moved to New Orleans where she died in 1833. Carrie and her husband William H Smith thought that Carrie would inherit a substantial amount after her mother died, but that did not happen. In Feb 1843, Carrie and her husband brought suit against Maynard E. Carrere, administrator of the mother's estate, demanding that he provide an accounting of what Carrie's mother had done with the proceeds from her father's estate and what he had done with what was left over when her mother died. It appears that the court decided that Carrere did not have to produce the accounts and was not found responsible for any loss of perceived value of the estate.]
