Notes
General:
Hansford Franklin "Moss" Carter was born in Echols County, Georgia. His parents were Allen W. Carter and Sarah Elizabeth Corbett Carter.

Moss married Zoia Amelia Porter and they had children, Elon, Lawson, Carroll, Cuba and Grace.

Grandpa was a farmer and a carpenter. He built many caskets for neighbors and wife Zoia padded and lined them.
Their daughter Elon married and lived in Lake Park, Lowndes County, Georgia. Her husband had died from an auto accident and she had two small children. Moss and Zoia moved in with her so she could work. Moss had a stroke and was in a wheelchair for the last ten years of lis life. Zoia took care of him.

Grandpa died in March 1945 and my Mother Cuba always said that she wished he could have known the war was over. Cuba was evidently a tomboy. Girls did not wear overalls in those days but Moss bought her overalls. She hunted and fished with him.
Hansford and Zoia were buried at the Carter Cemetery in Echols County, Georgia.
