Jonas Carter

From The Dark Shadows Wiki

Jonas Carter was the elected sheriff in Collinsport, Maine.

In 1957, Carter worked on Burke Devlin's manslaughter case, and in 1967, he investigated Roger Collins' car accident, which also involved Burke as a suspect (21, 23).

Carter was married (32). He was not too fond of mustard on ham (26).

[edit] Behind the scenes

Carter was initially referred to as the Constable, but beginning with episode 24, his shoulder patch said "SHERIFF." From 25 on, all characters began to refer to him as the sheriff, except Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, who called him by his first name (23) or "Mr. Carter" (22). In 28, his credit was finally changed to "Sheriff Carter."
