Carrie was the daughter of Lewis Hamilton Babcock, a prominent attorney, and Ellen Catherine Babcock (née Sherrill).[1][2] She had two siblings, Sherrill Babcock, a soldier, and Anita Babcock DeLong.[2] Her grandfather was Congressman and Union brigade commander Eliakim Sherrill, killed at Gettysburg.[1]

Carrie Babcock married James Schoolcraft Sherman on January 26, 1881.[3] Carrie and James had known each other since childhood.[1]

The couple had three sons: Sherrill B. Sherman (1883–1962), Richard U. Sherman (1884–1951), and Thomas M. Sherman (1885–1944).[1][2]

When her husband became vice-president in March 1909, Carrie became the first second lady to accompany her spouse in the inaugural parade, riding to and from the ceremony at the U.S. Capitol.[1][4]

Sherman is buried at Forest Hill Cemetery in Utica, New York, alongside her husband.
