Charles T. Carter founded the Carter Farm in 1840. With his wife Julia M.Calhoun and their ten children,
the family worked the 96 acres and produced corn, tobacco, hay andcattle. Charles T. Carter, Jr. was the
next owner of the land. He married Mattie Elizabeth Roemack and they werethe parents of four children,
including Alonza, who was the third-generation owner.
Alonzo and his wife Hattie Lou Simpson were the parents of four children,including Claud, Inez, Charles T.
and Otis, and they continued to raise a variety of crops and livestock.
The Carter Farm was the site of army maneuvers in preparation for WorldWar II, and with the family’s Century
Farm nomination materials, they submitted a copy of their 1942certificate, which was presented by the “Victory
Committee” to farm families who cooperated with the War EmergencyPrograms.
Today, the daughter of the Claud and Pauline Carter, Claudette CarterGoad, along with husband Wayne Goad and
their daughters, Bethany Goad Wright and Robbie Goad, are the farm’sowners. Cattle, hay and tobacco are the
primary crops grown currently grown on the land, where three generationsnow reside. Additionally, a post office
