Born to William M. Carter (1832–after 1880) & Catharine Clapp Carter (1830–1892), who married on Sept. 17, 1852, in Knoxville, TN.

Lewis married Eliza Jane Theodocia "Jennie" Killingsworth (1857–1942), of Tennessee, on Jan. 9, 1876, in Grainger County, TN. I have not been able to locate them together in the 1880 census. Lewis was living with his parents in Knoxville, TN, in 1880 and declared himself single.

Six children:
• William Henry Carter (1876–1941)
• Albert Glen Carter (1879–after 1900)
• Clyde Cecil Carter (1883–1970)
• Mamie Myrtle Carter (1886–1887)
• Leia Paula "Daisy" Carter Palmer (1888–1973)
• Anna Mae Carter Freeburg (1893–1977)

Lewis was a carpenter. By 1900, Lewis & Eliza Jane had separated, but both were in Dallas. She called herself widowed on the 1900 census, though she was not, and he was living as a widowed boarder on Elm Street. They were eventually buried in two separate cemeteries. When he died first in 1916, his death certificate said he was widowed, but he was not.
