Carlisle's not 100% sure when he was born. He guesses around 1640...then changed some twenty-something years later. But Carlisle NEVER joined or belonged to a coven when he was a young vampire. He did visit the Volturi, but found their beliefs and customs so different from his own, that he never joined them. Carlisle spent about two decades with the Volturi, then he left to America. Since Carlisle NEVER found a coven that he belonged with...he decided to create his own. Edward was the first member of Carlisle's Coven...Carlisle created Edward around 1918. Since a coven can consist of two vampires...then that's when Carlisle's coven was first formed. You notice that I'm not using the tern "Olympic" Coven. That's a temporary name for Carlisle's coven....when they're living around the Olympic peninsula. So, Carlisle's coven ONLY goes by Olympic Coven when they're living in the Forks area.
