General Notes: Husband - C. P. Carr
He attended school at Pleasant Grove, Pennsylvania, and afterward began the duties of life, naturally becoming a farmer and later engaging in teaming. After the death of his mother, the home farm, some ten years later, was divided between W. S. and C. P. Carr, the former taking the buildings and sixty-five acres of land, and the latter the 100 acres, on which there were no structures. Subsequently he erected solid, substantial buildings and lived on his land. He had a valuable coal bank which produced 200 tons of coal a month which he deliverd to the neighboring tile works. He did some truck farming in addition to his regular agricultural operations, and a productive peach orchard gave him some fine fruit to dispose of each year. He was a member of the Grange and of the Agricultural Society.
He and his family were members of the Methodist Episcopal church, of which he was a trustee. In politics he was a Democrat and was frequently elected to office on the Democratic ticket, serving as a member of the school board, as road supervisor and for some years he was a justice of the peace. He was a member of the Royal Order of the Moose and other fraternal organizations.
