Carter
County
Montana
Carter County was named in honor of the first Montana United States Senator, Thomas Carter. The county was originally part of Custer County but by an act of the Montana State Legislature on February 22, 1917, Carter County was created. The county opened for business on May 18, 1917 with Ekalaka as the county seat. What is now the Farmers Union Oil Company building was an old school building and also used as the courthouse. In 1920 the new courthouse building was built and is still in use today.
