Dear Jacquie:
I am sorry, I do not know much about Edward before he came to Nova Scotia.I know my cousin Robert Carritte was working on the geneology prior to his coming.I will ask him.I know he will be excited to here about you.
I do know that his son William Peacock Carritte moved with his wife Annie to Bridgeport Connecticut around 1850.He fought in the Civil War but after the Battle of Bull Run he deserted and went back to Guysborough.Where he became a Jailer and later died there.His family (children) settled in Lynn MA.Where I am from (however now I live on Long Island).There is a web site from Christ Church Cemetery in Guysborough which lists all the graves.Edward and Harriett are among them.
I Will contact Robert and see if he has more info.
Thanks for your email.
Peter
