Son of George and Ann Carter, brother to Harry, Ann, Matilda, Timothy, Frank, Walter and Thomas Carter.

His father is noted as a widower in the 1901 census, and remarried a Phoebe Graves in 1904. Interestingly, in 1904 Ben is listed as lodging with the Graves family in Highbury Road Luton, and is employed as a Straw Hat Blocker.
