A.P. Carter Birthplace Cabin


 

The A.P. Carter Birthplace Cabin at the Carter Fold
 
Like many of his Appalachian Mountain contemporaries, A.P. Carter of the original Carter Family came from humble beginnings. He and all of his siblings were born in an old log cabin that was built around the middle of the 19th century.

This primitive and run-down Scott County, Va home held the fascination of A.P.'s descendants for years. May 2004 saw the wonderful culmination of a year-long project by Janette Carter and her family to restore the cabin and move it, piece-by-piece, to its current location on the property of the famous Carter Family Fold in Hilton's Va.

The result is the authentic restored cabin that you see in today's photo! The next time you're planning to visit the Carter Fold, get there a couple of hours early so you can visit the museum and the A.P. Carter Birthplace Cabin before the show begins!
