E. J. CARR PLANT CENTER Inventory Project

Inventory List of the Botanical Collection Donated c. 1984 by Ellwood J. Carr,
Botanist and Naturalist, as located in the Girls Industrial Building

The following 17-page document is an inventory list (as of 2005) of the collection that was donated in c. 1984 by Botanist Ellwood J. Carr to the Pine Mountain Settlement School. The very large collection was housed with the instructional materials for the Environmental Education Program located in the former Girls Industrial Building, now commonly called the “Plant Center.”

Ellwood Jerome Carr, who preferred to be called “Bud” throughout his life, was 95 years old when he died on March 26, 2005, in Brodhead, Kentucky. His long life as a naturalist was regularly punctuated with accomplishment and his contributions to southeastern Kentucky are well-known to those interested in the flora and fauna of this region.
