      DR. CARTER W. BIGGERS was born August 28, 1840, in Monroe County, Ky.,
      where he grew up. In his thirty-third year he removed to Barren County,
      where he has since resided. His father, George W. Biggers, was born May
      3, 1800, in Virginia, and was for years a physician. He died December
      31, 1876. He was a son of William Biggers, who was a native of Ireland.
      George W. Biggers married, about 1830, Nancy, daughter of Thomas and
      Pricilla (Evans) Sabens. To their union were born James T., Carter W.,
      Mary S. (Frazier), Eva (Reynolds), and George W. Dr. Biggers married,
      June 30, 1864, Elizabeth, daughter of John and Julia (Ferguson) Payne.
      To them were born Millard F., Estella J. (deceased), and Alonzo. Dr.
      Biggers began, when eighteen years of age, to teach, since which time he
      has been making his own way in the world. For the first three years he
      paid his salary to his father; then for two years taught on his own
      account before beginning the study of medicine. After two years' study
      under the preceptorship of Dr. J W. Reynolds, he entered the medical
      department of the University of Louisville, where on account of
      sickness, he only remained a short time. Afterward he entered Ohio
      Medical School for one session, in 1865, after which he immediately
      commenced the practice of his profession at Sulphur Lick, Monroe County,
      and has since continued the practice with more than average success. He
      is the owner of 200 acres of well improved and productive land in a fine
      state of cultivation. He is a member, with his whole family, of the
      Baptist Church; is a thoroughly self-made man, and politically he is a
      Democrat.
