BIOGRAPHY: John Carter was born October 6, 1816 in Newry, Oxford County, Maine. He was the son of John and Hannah Knight Libby Carter. In 1834, John was baptized and became a member of the Latter-day Saint Church. In 1838, he married Elizabeth Runnels Sweat and in 1848, he took his second wife, Eldora Sweat. He suffered many of the hardships and trials of the Mormon people in the early days of the Church. He was of great help to the pioneers as he could do all kinds of blacksmithing and did the repair work on many wagons preparatory to the long journey to Utah. He was one of the blacksmiths in his company. At night, after the day's travel, he would repair a wagon, tighten a shoe on a horse or ox. Often he would get a few hours' work from another company or from people who passed along the way. This additional work brought a bag of flour or added a few dollars to help them on their way.

John Carter arrived in Provo, October 3, 1850, and here he continued his trade. In a short time he was called by President Brigham Young to help settle Nephi. He continued to practice his trade until 1854 or 1855, when he returned to Provo where he built a blacksmith shop of logs between Third and Fourth North on Fifth West. He repaired all kinds of farm tools, made plows, harrows, picks, grub hoes and crow bars. The pioneers used chains when hauling wood from the canyons and also to bind the large logs on wagons. These he made and repaired. He, also, made many household items such as flat irons, and stands, fire shovels, pokers, fire dogs and hooks for the fireplace. In his spare time [p.421]he made ice skates for the young people from old files which the children brought to him for that purpose.

About 1875, he traded his property in Provo for land in Car-terville three miles north of Provo. He again built a log shop with a board roof. The shop faced the south with a window in the east and a forge on the north wall. His slack tub was a fifty gallon wooden barrel, cut in half, and set on a large post to make it the right height.

As his children married he made each couple, for a wedding gift, flat irons and stands, fire shovels and pokers. Some of these are prized possessions of the Carter families. He died April 21, 1896 and was buried in Provo City. ---Dora Emmons Hartley.
