The William Carter Tailor Shop operated in Otterville from before 1879 to when he sold the building to Joseph Fish in 1903. The address was 5 South Main St. Otterville, ONT. The Carter Tailor Shop advertised on the Hall Curtain painted by Tom Dearle in 1882.Jane, William's wife, died in 1899 in Otterville.

All of William and Jane's children eventually immigrated to the United States. William lived with his youngest daughter, Maud, in 1910 in Waltham, Massachusetts. William died in 1915. He and Jane are buried together in St John's Anglican Cemetery, Otterville, Ontario, Canada.
