attractive.

CARPENTER, Amos Bugbee & Miner Bugbee
Biography of Amos Bugbee CARPENTER (father of Miner B.)

Men of Vermont: Illustrated Biographical History of Vermonters & Sons of
Vermont. Ullery. Brattleboro: Transcript Publishing Company, 1894, p 65
(portrait p 65)

Amos Bugbee CARPENTER, of Waterford, was born 25 May 1818 in Waterford
[Caledonia County, Vermont], son of Isaiah and Caroline (BUGBEE) CARPENTER.
The first of the family who emigrated to America was William CARPENTER, who
came from Wherwell, England, in 1638, and was one of the earliest settlers of
Weymouth [Warren County, Massachusetts] and Rehoboth [Bristol County],
Massachusetts. Jonah CARPENTER, the grandfather of Amos Bugbee CARPENTER,
was a minute man during the Revolutionary War, and Isaiah, his son, came to
Waterford in 1808, where he cleared a farm, which has since been the family
home.

Mr. Amos Bugbee CARPENTER attended the common schools of Waterford, and
afterwards pursued short courses of study at the Lyndon Academy and Peacham
grammar school. When eighteen years of age, and each season after that time
until married, he taught school during the winter and attended to his farm
duties during the summer; but though his educational opportunities were
limited, he has supplemented them by a lifelong habit of reading, and a large
experience of men and affairs. He has made general farming the vocation of
his life, paying considerable attention to the products of the dairy.

On 24 June 1847 he [Amos Bugbee CARPENTER] was united in marriage to Cosbi
B., daughter of Ezra and Hannah (BURLEIGH) PARKER, of Littleton [Grafton
County], New Hampshire. They have had eight children, six of whom still
live: (1) Martha W., Mrs. Stillman F. CUTTING, of Concord [Essex County,
Vermont]; (2) Althea C., Mrs. Stephen J. HASTINGS, of Waterford; (3)
Philander Isaiah, who died in infancy; (4) Caroline Bugbee, Mrs. L. J.
CUMMINGS, deceased; (5) Amos Herbert; (6) Cosbi May, Mrs. L. J. CUMMINGS,
of Clinton [Clinton County], Iowa; (7) Ezra Parker; and (8) Miner Bugbee.
[It appears that L. J. CUMMINGS, after the death of his wife, Caroline Bugbee
CARPENTER, then married her sister, Cosbi May CARPENTER.]

Mr. CARPENTER is a consistent Republican, and for thirty-eight years has
discharged the duties of postmaster at West Waterford. He was a member of
the state Legislature from Waterford in 1888. Nearly half a century ago he
was elected a corresponding member of the Historical and Genealogical Society
at Boston, and is about to publish a record of the CARPENTER family, on which
he has persistently labored for many years. He has received the three
degrees of Blue Lodge Masonry, and is a member of Moose River Lodge of West
Concord. He was one of the charter members of the Green Mountain Grange,
Patrons of Husbandry, which was the first subordinate body formed in New
England, and later was selected to be Master of Waterford Grange.
