Ira CARTER, teacher, was born in Monroe County, Ind., March 18, 1865, and 
is a son of J.F. and Susan (SILIVAN) CARTER, the former a native of
Garrard County, Ky., the latter of Monroe County, Ind.  They are both of
English decent.  J.F. Carter received a good common school education in
Indiana, to which State he came in early youth, and remained with his
parents until 1863, when he married.  Eight children bless this union, all
of whom are yet living.  He and wife are devoted members of the Missionary
Baptist Church.  He owns a farm in Van Buren Township, where he now
resides.  Ira CARTER, the eldest of three sons, besides receiving a good
common schooling, has attended different Normal Schools held at Bloomington
and elsewhere.
During the summer he is engaged on his father^Òs farm and in winter is
employed in teaching.  Mr. CARTER is a young man of fine ability and bids
fair to be one of the leading young men of the county.
