James inherited his property in Alton, the property we presently live on, from his twin sister Tine (Sara Woody).This becomes known as the Carter Farm to our present day family members.Barksdale, James' son, builds his own home on a portion of this property.Sara leaving the property to her brother was intriging since her husband had children from a previous marriage.They do get the bulk of the property, but we eventually purchase the rest from the Carters.
