      Wiley Carter was one of the original settlers of South West Georgia. He was born in Warren County Georgia. He was the son of James Carter Jr and Eleanor Duckworth, and the grandson of James Carter Sr. He moved to Georgia from Bertie County, North Carolina prior to 1787. Wiley married Ann Ansley in 1821 and after her death he married Sarah Ross. He had five sons: Walker, Jesse, Sterling, Calvin, Wiley; and seven daughters, Louise, Ann, Armanda, Caroline, Euphrasia, Julia and Jane.

      Ann Ansley was the daughter of Abel and Lydia Morris Ansley, and a granddaughter of Thomas and Rebecca Ansley and Jacob and Mary Ansley Morris. The Ansleys lived in Waren County, Ga. Wiley Carter sold his land in Warren County on Rocky Comfort Creek, near Gibson, in 1851 and moved permanently to his plantation in Schley County in Southeast Georgia, 20 miles north of Plains. The home, known today as the "Battle Place" is located, along with the family cemetery, on the Ellaville-Friendship Road (Georgia Highway 153) at its intersecton with Gerogia Highway 45.

      It was here that Wiley Carter, farmer, planter, and Baptist, was buried when he died at the age of 66. His plantation contained 2400 acres in both Schley and Sumter Counties and produced 147 bales of cotton in 1860. Wiley's first wife, Ann, died c. 1848, and he remarried Mrs. Sarah Wilson, widow of Newton County in 1849.

      Wiley and Ann had eleven children.
      He is a relative of President Jimmy Carter.
