Dropped Dead.
Mr. Aaron Carter, of Naylor, died suddenly on Thursday of last week. The cause of his death is supposed to have been heart disease. He ate his breakfast and went out in his pear orchard to do some work, apparently well and hearty. His wife prepared dinner and he did not come in at the casual hour, she became uneasy and went in search of him. She found him laying on the ground, and thinking he had only fainted felt of him, and to her horror and grief found him dead.

General Notes: Husband - Allen Washington Carter
Allen W. Carter was born August 19, 1847 in what was then Lowndes, now Echols County, Georgia likely on the Carter family farm. He was the youngest son of John Carter Sr. and Lavinia (maiden name unknown). Allen married Sarah E. Corbett daughter of Franklin Corbett and Winnie Stuart sometime before 1873. Allen and Sarah had nine children.
The first record of Allen appears in the 1850 Federal Census of Echols County, GA. He is three years of age and was enumerated in the household of his father, John Carter Sr.
The 1860 Echols census shows a youthful Allen, living with his parents. The following is from that schedule: CARTER, John Sr. M 66 SC Farmer 500/464, Lavinia F 62 SC Wife, Frances M. F 22 GA Seamstress, John C. M 14 GA Ploughman, Allen W. M 13 GA, Mary F 32 GA.
The next mention of Allen comes as a result of the "1864 Census for Re-Organizing the Georgia Militia". This re-organization act required that "all free white males between the ages of 16 and 60 that were not currently in the war to be listed by Company District, age, occupation, and nativity". The following is as it appears in the records for Echols County, GA, 6th Senatorial District - 1211th Militia District: CARTER, Allen W., 16 yrs. 5 mos., Farmer, b. GA.
Towards the end of the war (1865) when the call went out for boys and old men to join the war effort, seventeen year old Allen enlisted in the CSA along with eldest brother Martin T. Carter, Sr. at Charleston, SC. In the "Widows Pension" form filed Sarah, around July of 1910, his widow indicates he enlisted in Company K, 32nd Georgia Infantry. Allen was granted a furlough by Colonel Harrison. A few days before he arrived home, his company and many others surrendered at Columbia, SC marking the end of the war.
The 32nd was fighting in the "Campaign of the Carolinas" during Allen's hitch. The following are the battles engaged by the 32nd during the time of Allen's enlistment:
Pocatalico, SC - 1/15/1865
River's Bridge, Salkahatchie River, SC - 2/3/1865
Orangeburg, SC 2/11/1865 - 2/12/1865
Evacuation of Charleston, SC - 2/18/1865
Battle of Averysborough, NC - 3/16/1865
Battle of Bentonville, NC 3/19/1865 - 3/21/1865
Surrender at Bennett's House, Durham, NC 4/26/1865
Less than five years later, Allen was enumerated back Echols county this time (1870) as a married man. The schedule states: CARTER, Allen 23-M-W/GA Farmer 300/280. Sarah 19-F-W/GA Keeping House.
The 1880 census shows Allen Carter age 32 now married with children. The family was enumerated in District #1211 (Kinseys) Echols County, GA. The census showed wife Sarah E. age 27 born in GA, son Hansford, age 10, born in GA, son George, age 8, born in GA, daughter Laura, age 6 born in GA, daughter Elizabeth, age 4 born in GA, son Wiley, age 2 born in GA, and son Alfred, age 1 born in GA. Wife Sarah is pregnant at this time with a daughter, to be named after her, Sarah E (Sallie).
The Chinkypin Vol. 3 lists Allen's death as Nov.15, 1892. His headstone reads Nov. 5, 1892. He is buried in the Carter Family Cemetery in western Echols county along with wife Sarah (d. March 12, 1929) in a rather unusual layout as he is buried head-to-head with wife Sarah.
On Saturday, November 20, 1999, Allen was one of four CSA veterans honored at a ceremony at the Carter Family Cemetery in Echols. During this ceremony, a special marker was placed on his grave recognizing his service to the cause.
General Notes: Wife - Sarah Elizabeth Corbett
Sarah was born January 18, 1852 to Franklin Corbett and Winnie Stuart in Georgia.
The 1860 Census for Echols Co., GA, list Sarah E. eldest child of Francis and Winnie as 8 years old, female, b. GA.
In 1861 Minutes from Antioch Church mention Sarah Corbett with a date of May 1861. No other details given.
1877. There is a mention of "Sisters Sallie Corbet, Kizzie Outlaw, and Mary Jones made acknowledgments of dancing and _____." Would have been 27 and she lived in the general area. She probably married a few months later to Allen and in Jan of 1878 she had their first child. Maybe she was dancing with husband to be Allen.
During the August 1877 minutes there was a mention that Sister Sallie Carter came under the watchcare of the church.
In January of 1879 Sally Carter was excommunicated from the church.
She passed away March 12, 1929. Sara is buried head to head with her husband Allen W. Carter in Carter Family Cemetary, next to Sardis Church, in eastern Echols county (Wrights Chapel section) District 1211 near Lake Park GA.
Sarah's headstone states the date of death as 1/18/1909 but since there is a record of her in the "List of Widows of Ex-Confederate Soldiers Living in this, Echols County, January 1, 1918" I must assume the death was really as 3/12/1929 as stated in the Chinkypin Vol. 3 #3.

Death of A. J. Carter.
The people of Titusville were greatly shocked Wednesday morning to learn that Mr. A. J. Carter had died the night before at his home at Turnbull. Death was caused from hardening of the arteries and other complications, due to old age, as Mr. Carter was in his 75th year.
"Uncle Jack" Carter had many friends throughout the Indian River section, who will learn of his death with sincere regrets.
The funeral services were held on the arrival of the train yesterday afternoon, at the LaGrange cemetery, Rev. J. G. Parsons officiating.
The funeral was in charge of Undertakers Andrew Froscher & Son.
Mr. Carter leaves a wife and daughter, Mrs. L. A. Coleman, several grand-children and two brothers, the latter living in Georgia.
