John E Carter was my 1st cousin thrice removed, born Iowa 1865. He married Laura Percy in Idaho and moved to Vancouver by 1910 census. I have found them in 1920 and 1930, and am looking for them subsequent to that time, as well as any descendants who might be interested in the family history I have put together.

Children:
Ralph Edward Carter b Idaho 1897 married Nell Wilson (possibly in Portland ca1923-24). Ralph was mayor of Vancouver, prob. 1952-56, and a dentist. Children (initials only since they might still be living) D.G (dau - married JE Keller 1950) and D (son).

Alta L. b Idaho 1900 married George Jacob Fernea in Vancouver in 1928. Fairly unique surname.

Claude Harold b Washington 1909 married Mary E. Langford 1938. Enlisted for WWII in Portland 1942 and was possibly a pharmacist (lived in Multnomah County?).

I do have burials for John, Laura, and Ralph at Park Hill Cemetery.

Any descendants out there?
