A picture of Matthew Carter and Ephraim Charlton. The Charlton Family lived on the Gwynn property, where Carter's wife Willie Mae also lived as a child, and which was later incorporated into the Ayavalla Plantation. Ephraim worked at Ayavalla for nearly 50 years, first as a farm hand, then, for many years, as a gardener, and then as a butler. Matthew was a dog handler and horse trainer, and lived at Ayavalla with his wife from 1942-1948.
