I appeal to you stalwarts of the List.  Any information will be appreciated.

I am searching for D(octor) W. Carter for appears in the 1860 census of the city of Petersburg.   He is 24 years of age living in the west ward of Petersburg with Louisa age 26 or 28 and a boy of 10 years named Jannit(sp) F.  Gates.  He is not listed in 1870 census.  He was listed as a Superintendent of a tobacco factory.  He was a son of Wison Carter and Sarah Davis of Prince Edward County, Va.

Is there a city directory for Petersburg between 1860 and 1870?
Could he have died between 1860 and 1870?  Is there a record of deaths for Petersburg? 
Could he have been killed in the Civil War?
Is there a list of those buried in Blandford Cemetery or any other cemetery within the range of the City.  

Thanks for reading this and any help will be appreciated.
