14090. William Purdy Carpenter Rev.

Number 284-4 in TIMOTHY CARPENTER DESCENDANTS.
William carried the title of Reverend.  The compiler (of the T.C. book) and his
mother were in a rowboat on Chautauqua Lake one summer when the family had a
cottage at Lakeview.  On that day, William came calling and decided he would
like to go out on the lake with us.  As we oared along, he told of being a lad
out on the lake in a boat and having a fish jump into his boat.  No sooner had
he told of that incident than a flying fish flew right into our boat and the
compiler almost capsized the boat in his endeavor to get that fish in his
hands.  This is a true fish story.
William's sister Lucy recorded in her Bible that William was born in 1833.  One
old record lists son William S. as Walter L. and daughter Rosalie as Rosalie D.
A separate record lists Clinton as Clinton E.
Gravestones were in good condition in 1965.

14091. Francis W. Carpenter

Number 285-4 in TIMOTHY CARPENTER DESCENDANTS.
See image: RIN 11412 Fracis Carpenter pic.jpg

FRANCIS, the compiler's grandfather, was a farmer most of his life. In later
years, he operated a small general store at Blockville~ The road leading from
the main road to his home, where the store was located, was made a township
road at the time. This had been forgotten for years until a granddaughter, MYRA
(1155), who purchased the old homestead, rediscovered it was a town road. She
and husband, ERNEST TAYLOR, restored the old house. Evidently, FRANCIS and his
family followed members of his wife's family in moving westward to homestead in
Minnesota. The exact date is not known, but the compiler has the original
homestead deed which is signed in two places by PRESIDENT U.S. GRANT. The deed
certificate #7474 was issued Feb.1,1872 and recorded in Faribault Co. Nov. 28,
1872 in Book 2, Pg. 182. It reads as follows: Whereas, FRANCIS W. CARPENTER of
Faribault County, Minnesota has deposited in the GENERAL LAND OFFICE of the
United States a Certificate of the Register of the Land Office at Jackson,
Minnesota whereby it appears FULL PAYMENT has been made by the said FRANCIS W.
CARPENTER according to the provisions of the Act of Congress of the
24th of April, 1820, entitled "An Act making further provision for the sale of
Public Lands", for the North East quarter of the South East quarter of Section
ten, in Township one hundred and two, of Range twenty-seven, in the district of
lands subject to sale at Jackson, Minnesota, containing forty acres according
to the official Plat of the Survey of the said lands, returned to the GENERAL
LAND OFFICE by the Surveyor General, which said tract has been purchased by the
said FRANCIS W. CARPENTER...
Daughter MINA told the compiler her parents gave up homesteading and returned
to the Blockville, N.Y. area because of her father's health.
Some old records give FRANCIS' birth as 1835, as does his sister LUCY'S diary.
The 1836 date, tied in with another record, and because of a leap year, is
given here. FRANCIS' will dated Feb.8, 1908 (Vol.16, Pg.218, courthouse,
Mayville) names his son TIMOTHY as executor. Witnesses were G.H. BURLEY and
WILLIAM WALBURG. Extended litigation ensued prior to final probate of the will.
VICTORIA was a daughter of GEORGE R. NELSON. Her mother's surname was most
probably WAKEFIELD. Records of the compiler indicate GEORGE'S proper name was
RIDDLER; another record indicates that a RIDDLER was a step-father. VICTORIA
reportedly was an expert pistol shot, which was occasioned by the Indian
troubles while they resided in Minnesota. Her brace of pistols was last known
to be in the possession of JOHN (705). Two sisters and a brother were living
when she died: Mrs. MARY OTHOUGHT, Mrs. SARAH FOSS and ALBERT NELSON. The FOSS
family became renowned in the Midwest, particularly in the Minnesota area. The
last known address of SARAH was: Mrs. C.J. LUSK (formerly Mrs. ROPER), 507~ S.
Second St., Mankato, Minn. CHARLES CLARK, VICTORIA'S second spouse, was a Civil
War veteran, having served in Company "H", 185th N.Y. He reminisced with the
compiler about his war experiences and told of being taken prisoner and
confined in one of the infamous Confederate prison camps. The former spouse of
CHARLES CLARK recelved his Civil War pension through Sept.4, 1918; she was
represented by Attorney ARTHUR B. MANN of Coudersport, Pa.
Present at VICTORIA'S passing were sons FRANK and CHARLES and daughters ADDIE
and ANNIE, plus FRANK'S spouse, JEANETTE. Gravestones were inspected in
1974--some were in excellent, some in good and some in fair condition. As you
enter the cemetery, the plot is on the left side down near the left hedge row.
FRANCIS' funeral services were held under the auspices of the Methodist Church,
Blockville.

Biography of George W. Carpenter
This biography is from "Memorial and biographical record; an illustrated
compendium of biography, containing a compendium of local biography,
including biographical sketches of prominent old settlers and
representative citizens of South Dakota..." Published by G. A. Ogle &
Co., Chicago, 1898. Page 276.

GENERAL GEORGE W. CARPENTER, whose portrait appears on another page, is
an old settler of South Dakota, and a well-known and prosperous citizen
of Watertown, South Dakota. He was born in Erie county, New York, July
26, 1833.
Mr. Carpenter's father, George W. Carpenter, was born in Pompey,
near Syracuse, New York, in the year 1800, and moved with his parents
to Erie county, New York, when about ten years of age. His father,
Jeremiah Carpenter, was a native of New York, and a soldier in both the
Revolutionary war and the War of 1812. He is a descendant of one of
three brothers who came from Germany in an early day and located on
Long Island, their names then being "Zimmerman," the German word for
"carpenter." Our subject's mother, Anna Foot, was a native of New York.
Her father, who was of French descent, died when she was quite small.
Mr. Carpenter is the seventh child in the order of birth of a
family of ten children, nine of whom grew to maturity, and one died at
the age of ten years. He was reared in his native county and educated
in the public schools of his district. February 13, 1858, he was united
in marriage to Miss Ermina E. Watson. Mrs. Carpenter was born in
Darien, Genesee county, New York, March 1 7, 1 840, the daughter and
only child of Milton and Marilla Watson, natives of Massachusetts and
Vermont, respectively. After his marriage, Mr. Carpenter located in the
village of Marilla, a town named in honor of his wife's mother, and
there engaged in business until 1 86 1, when he enlisted in Company C,
Twenty-first New York Volunteer Infantry, as a private for three
months, and served about six months. On his return, he was given a
permit by the government to recruit for the One Hundred and Sixteenth
New York Volunteer Infantry, and was appointed first lieutenant of
Company I of the regiment. When he went out, in October of the same
year, he was appointed captain of Company I. In December, 1864, he was
appointed major of the One Hundred and Sixteenth Regiment, and served
in that capacity until the close of the war in 1865. Mr. Carpenter
participated in the following principal battles: The first battle of
Bull Run; the siege of Port Hudson; Coxie's Plantation, or
Donaldsonville, where he was slightly wounded; Winchester, Virginia,
Fisher's Hill, Cedar Creek, where he was again wounded in the leg by a
shell, and was taken to Winchester about thirty days, and was then sent
home on a furlough for sixty days, and later went to the hospital at
Annapolis, Maryland. He again joined the regiment in March, 1865, and
was ordered to Washington on guard duty, and was there at the time of
the assassination of President Lincon. He was on provost duty at the
Grand Review, and was field officer of the day during the second day of
that celebration. He was mustered out at Buffalo, New York, July 8,
1865.
After the close of hostilities, Mr. Carpenter went west and
located in Fillmore county, Minnesota, in July, 1865, and there engaged
in farming until 1878. During that time he served the citizens of the
county in the capacity of justice of the peace, dividing his time
between the duties of that office and his farm interests. He made a
specialty of hop raising, and in 1871 shipped nine car loads of hops,
valued at $12,000, to Chicago, and they were all burned in the fire of
that year. In 1 878 he moved to Codington county, South Dakota, and
located on a farm two and a half miles south of what is now Watertown,
being one of the first to locate in the county. Soon after he was
elected surveyor of the county, and helped to lay out the town of
Watertown and several other towns in the state, and did surveying on
government land. He is now surveyor of three counties, Codington,
Hamlin and Deuel, and at one time was surveyor of Clark county. He also
surveyed the Great Northern railroad, being thus engaged three years,
and was chief engineer of the Duluth, Watertown & Pacific railroad,
which was surveyed from the northern line of the state to Watertown. He
has been connected with the state militia for ten years, and held the
office of quartermaster general of South Dakota, until 1897. He was
department commander of the Grand Army of the Republic during the year
1894; has been connected with that body since 1868; is now a member of
the National Encampment, and is also a prominent Mason.
Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter are the parents of eleven children, of
whom we have the following record: Eva E., wife of George R. Williams,
of Watertown; Kattie M., wife of Elmer McDowell, of Watertown; Osceola,
at home; Capitola, a teacher; Edna M., now attending school; J. C., the
youngest, now attending school; Libbie and Lillie, twins, both
deceased; George W., deceased; Glezen F., deceased; and Estella,
deceased.
