James was the son of Charles Powell Carter and Susan Ingram. He died in The Battle at Chancellorsville, Virginia. He enlisted in the 14th Regiment of South Carolina Infantry, Company A "Lynches Creek Guards."
a brother of J.M. Carter, wrote shortly after the battle of Chancellorsville, VA about the death of "Mack."........ "Tell Caroline [he] died like a soldier with an immortal [torn] for it was given up that he acted more gallant than any man in the 14th Regiment. I got his knapsack and hat, also his pocketbook. He gave that to the Captain before he went into the fight and told him if he got killed to give it to his wife and tell her to live off of it. He was buried by the prison corps and several saw him after [he was] dead but I did not. Giles said he would not have known him but for his clothes...."
Believe he is buried at Spotsylvania Confederate Cemetery.
