Individual Details
EDWARD "NED" CARTER
(7 Aug 1874 - 26 Jan 1958)
Edward and his family lived on the old Carter homestead up Tweedie Brook Road. Edward being young took his family and moved to Greenville, Maine. Robert and Elsie being quite old moved down with their son Robert and wife Margaret Annie. But as time went by Robert and Elsie were very homesick and wanted Edward and Janie to come home. It was in 1906 when they returned and shortly after their son James died. E. Isabel (Carter) Ryder remembers going up to visit the folks as a little girl with her mother Margaret Annie. Elsie Caie passed away in 1918 and Robert passed away in 1923.
On October 18, 1924 Edward and his family moved down to South Portland, Maine, where they lived with Edwards sister Mariam. Mariam was having problems, so Edward and his family found rent across the street. Later on Edward moved in with his brother Ward until he found another rent on Broadway which was next to Carter St. in South Portland. They lived there until Edwards's daughter Charlotte and husband John "Walter" Flink bought a two family at 28 Carter Street on February 1, 1944 and lived upstairs. Edward worked at Rigby yard for Maine Central Railroad. Edward and family returned to the old farm for a few summers and in 1929 Edwards nephew Firth Carter bought the farm and raised his family there.
