Mrs. Jesse H. Carter Dies Wed.
Mrs. Jesse Carter, 78 years of age, died at her home near Gant, Wednesday morning about
7 o'clock, from a stroke of paralysis. She was ill only a short time, having been stricken
with paralysis about 2 o'clock on Tuesday morning.
The funeral will be held at Salt River Church, Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The
Rev. David Mayes of Centralia will officiate. The body will be buried in Salt River
Cemetery.
Mrs. Carter was the wife of Jesse Carter, one of the most prominent citizens of the
county. She was a beautiful Christian character and a member of the Christian church for
many years. Her death will sadden the hearts of not only her close neighbors, but all who
knew her.
Besides a husband, she is survived by the following children: Mesdames T. Squires, Ed
Beatty, Effie Dalby and John Thomas, all of the Gant neighborhood and C. C. Carter of Los
Angeles, Calif.
The Ledger joins many friends in extending sympathy to the bereaved.

Rose Sears d 23 Aug 1927 aged 65 yrs.
This was right next to Jesse H. and Martha A. Carter. The stones were fairly new, with
the same design. Rose Sears was just a little smaller. Thought there might be a
connection.
This next one was on the other side of your Carters. One tall stone with J.N. Carter on
the east side and Martha J. Carter on the west side. Didn't say how related. One of the
census you sent in your first posting, had J.N. Carter living with Jesse Carter and was a
brother. My feeling is this is
Jesse's brother and mother???

By the way, the above stone has been repaired. Appeared to have been
vandalized several places, but in good shape. Could see the glue, or whatever they use.
