John House: "Pioneers of Jackson Co. . ."
Another family of Boswells, connected with the Squires people, came from Rockbridge County, Virginia, to Mason, at an early day. A daughter, Jane, married John Carter, who purchased land and settled about seventy-five years ago. It is related that he used to walk barefoot to the Court House to settle his taxes, so economical did he have to be while saving money to pay for his land.
