His father was Thomas Nelson Carter, of Anfield, and his mother Ann Willing Page, of Pagebrooke. Mr. Carter, after the usual instruction afforded by the neighborhood schools, took a course at Rumford Academy in King William county, Va. At the breaking out of the Civil war he was engaged on his father's plantation in Louisiana, whence he entered the Confederate service, attaching himself to the artillery branch of arms, where he served throughout the war, but was captured some time before the close of hostilities and placed in Fort Delaware, remaining in that lovely and luxurious retreat for about one year. Capt. Carter attained the command of his battery in 1862, having been promoted to a captaincy through gallantry and merit. After the war he returned to Anfield, and married, Feb. 2, 1867, Lucy R. Page, daughter of Dr. Robert Powell Page, of Clarke county. He located on the property known as “The Glen,” a portion of the famous “Saratoga” tract, owned and thus named by Gen. Daniel Morgan, of Revolutionary fame. He is an Episcopalian and a democrat. ~History of the Lower Shenandoah Valley Counties of Frederick, Berkeley, Jefferson and Clarke: Their Early Settlement and Progress to the Present Time; pg. 619; J.
