CARTER FAMILY PLOT

This Union Township cemetery is located within the Iowa Army Ammunition Plant. A sign erected by IAAP officials says that the Carter family lived in a log cabin nearby. All members of the family were found dead, presumed victims of cholera. The family was buried in a common and unmarked grave.

If you know the names of the parents and children, or any other information about this family, please let us know.
