The earliest record I have found where Jesse appears is the 1830 US Census. The township is not recorded, but he and his family live in Columbus County, NC.. His name is recorded as Jessee Carterette, though the writing of the day makes his given name appear to modern eyes as Jefsee.

On the same page are Joshua (age 40-50), Robert (20-30), William (20-30), Rubin (20-30), Thomas (30-40) Carterette. In Jesse’s household were: one male 20-30 years old, one female under five, and one female aged 20-30. Although there are a number of slaves recorded in surrounding farms, there are no slaves or free-colored persons listed for Jesse's.

Other Carterette’s in the vicinity (+/- two pages) include: James (30-40), Henry (40-50), Claudious (40-50), Joseph (60-70), Ephraim (20-30), and a second Joseph (30-40). If Jesse is about 25, then his father might be Joshua, Henry, Claudious, or Joseph.
