The family of William Carr donated to Water Valley, MS the grounds on which stand the Water Valley Grammar School, a Masonic Lodge, and the Oak Hill Cemetery. Donated land for the courthouse, a Railroad Hotel and the Right-of-Way for the Mississippi Central RR. Was appointed Postmaster of Water Valley, Yalobusha Co., MS 27 Jul 1848. Adapted from Godspeed Memoirs of Mississippi: Water Valley began its growth in the early 1830s. William A. Carr had the first store and blacksmith shop and was the first postmaster. Lewis Lawshe, whose wife was a sister of William A. Carr, Jr.'s wife, also came about this time, as did E. F. Crisp. Henry Carr and William Carr's land originally extended from Honeycutt to Velma. They later sold land to Henry Hill. The next to build after Hill was Mr. Hendricks. Adapted from Godspeed Memoirs of Mississippi: "Water Valley began its growth in the early 1830s. William A.
