- Country/folk music vocalist and autoharp player. She typically sang lead on Carter Family recordings and live performances. Sara's mother and Maybelle's mother had been sisters, both Kilgores. After the Carter Family group disbanded in the 1940s, she stepped back from public performances. The folk music boom of the 1960s then brought her back into prominence.
