Hi John,
... I was wondering if you were familiar with the family of John
& Ann Carpenter Thorn. John & Ann were both born in Cornwall, Orange Co.,
NY and emigrated to Horseheads, Chemung Co., NY.  I understand from
another researcher that Ann's parents were Townsend &
Elizabeth Truesdell Carpenter. I will copy a descendant outline of what
I have for the family at the end of this email.  I believe that John was the
brother of my ancestor Lawrence Thorn, and that Lawrence & John were the
sons of Daniel & Ann Johnes Vandel Thorn,
who were born in Orange Co., NY and emigrated to Yates Co., NY.  I believe
Daniel is the son of Langford & Mary Roe Thorn(e) of
Cornwall, Orange Co., NY. I am trying to find confirmation for all
of the above, and any information you may have on any of these people
would be helpful. Thanks, Kari Northup.

Thanks so much for the info -  I may have some questions after I look it
over.  I'm interested in the Elizabeth Carpenter married to John Thorn - but
the ages and marriage date don't match what I have.  I will copy some of my
notes on this email for you to look over.  You may want to contact Paul
Truesdell if you haven't already.  He couldn't remember where he got the
info I have on John & Ann Carpenter Thorn - I think the birthplace info is
from the 1855 New York State census.  Paul lives in Okinawa.

Subject: Louis Carpenter, b. Dec. 14,1829
Dear Mr. Carpenter:

Dawn Carpenter suggested that I contact you. I am researching Louis (some sources spell it Lewis) Carpenter, born December 14, 1829, possibly in New York State.

I am the Law Librarian at the Douglas County Law Library, now being formed in Lawrence, Kansas.  I am researching Louis Carpenter because there is a proposal to have a memorial to him in the Law Library. We need to have as much information as possible about him to determine if such a memorial would be appropriate. Also, if we do establish a memorial, we would like to let any relatives he might have know about it.

I have found no information about him prior to 1860 except for his birth date, recorded on his headstone (an image of which is located on the Find a Grave web site at: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=10534), and that he was from New York. He is recorded in the Kansas Territorial Census of 1860 as living in Lawrence but when he actually came to Kansas is unknown. He was married in Lawrence to Mary E. Barber of Emporia, Kansas, on October 10, 1862 but had no children.  He was murdered at the hands of Confederate guerrillas led by William Clarke Quantrill in a raid on Lawrence on August 21, 1863.  He was an attorney, had been probate judge, had run unsuccessfully for Attorney General of Kansas and, at the time of his death, was Recorder for the Kansas Supreme Court.

While Carpenter was probate judge in Douglas County, he wrote a Mrs. F. Stowe of Livingston County, N.Y. on April 11, 1861, concerning the estate of her husband.  Other material in the letter suggests that Judge Carpenter may have had more than a professional relationship with her, being either a friend or relative of hers.  Other than this, I have no clue as to where in New York he may have come from, whether he was actually born in New York, or any family connections he may have had.

Any assistance you can provide me in my research would be most appreciated.  Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
(Mr.) Kerry Altenbernd
