J.R. Carter


Colored American Magazine (Feb 1904): J. R. Carter is a true example of a self made man. He was born in Virginia 33 years ago and of hard work and determination managed to enter the State Normal School of West Virginia, where he graduated from the academic class of 1901, standing second in a class of 23. Mr. Carter owns a nice home in the City of Parkersburg on the corner of Fifteenth and Latrobe streets, and can boast of owning and running the only colored restaurant in the city; and in fact the only first class restaurant that has ever been established there by a colored man. He owes much of his success to his energetic wife, Hattie. Mr. Carter has high ambitions and will no doubt make a successful businessman.
He was married to Hattie R. Carter. The couple had one son, John Edgar Carter, who served in World War I, living in Savannah, Georgia then Denver, Colorado finally winding up in Tulsa, Oklahoma where their now adult son worked as a bank accountant.
He died in 1908 and is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
