  I would
think it possible that in a town like Atlanta, someone from India might
conceivably have a greenhouse with a bearing size tamarind.  (Somehow I
doubt that they will have an 80 yr old carob tree in a pot, that' how long
they take to crop.)
 
But carob is on bonsai people's lists of preferred candidates for indoors warm bonsai.  So its not impossible some arboretum or private bonsaid collection COULD in fact have an 80-yr old carob of bearing age.

At Jamaica Plains Massachusetts Arnold Arboretum there are other bonsais more than 200 years old.
