Ohio and was residing there in 1850.  Some Carpenter researchers say
that this Joseph was a son of Jeremiah and that he died in a logging

BY TERRY LEE CARPENTER AND PAUL THOMAS MOWREY.
PRO BONO PUBLICO - PRIVATELY PUBLISHED, DOVER, OHIO, 1997.
BY PAUL THOMAS MOWREY.
PAGE 52: 2. Jesse "Ike" Tanner was born circa 1795, married 1st Mary "Polly"
Carpenter 14 August 1820 in Mason County (Mary was a daughter of Jesse and
Sarah Jane Riffe Carpenter) and 2nd Judith Carpenter (Judy was a daughter of
Jeremiah and Elizabeth Hamm Carpenter) circa 1837. All of Jesse and Judith
Carpenter Tanner's children 1837-1846 listed their parents as Jesse and Judy
Tanner when they married.  Judy died 10 October 1859 and is reportedly buried
in the "Old Tanner Cemetery" on Craig Ridge.  Mary Carpenter Tanner died in
childbirth with her last child, William, and is supposedly buried in the same
graveyard. Jesse Tanner married 3rd Lucinda Raines 11 February 1860 and died 26
March 1885. Lucinda was a daughter of Uriah and Massie (Hughes) Gandee, a widow
of Abraham Raines and a first cousin, but once removed, to Jesse Tanner through
the Hughes family. They are buried in the Memorial Gardens Cemetery at Spencer,
West Virginia. Jesse and Lucinda's (Page 52) children, 1862-1872, all listed
their parents as Jesse and Lucy or Lucinda when they married. Parental listings
offer substantial proof of whom Jesse Tanner married and when he married them.

NOTE: Jesse "Buffalo" TANNER Sr. AND Jesse "Ike" TANNER may or may not be the
same person.  I think maybe, but there is enough debate to allow two until
further details come forth.


Judith or Judy or Judah or Polly Carpenter

NAME: Judith was known as Polly, but her name is often spellt as Judy or Judah
instead of Judith.    See page 48 of the Mowrey 1997 book:
Per page 48: 11. Judith (17) Carpenter was born around 1809, married Jesse
"Ike" Tanner circa 1837 and died 10 October 1859 (Jesse reported her death in
Roane County.  Other records have her death in Braxton county, VA.
She was fifty years old and the daughter of J. and Elizabeth (Hamm) Carpenter
of Braxton (page 49) County. She and Jesse's first wife, Mary Carpenter
(daughter of Jesse and Sarah Jane Riffe Carpenter) are probably buried in the
old Tanner Cemetery on Craig Ridge.

MARRIAGES need claification.  Children conflicts.  Could there be 2 Mary
Carpenters?


3389. Riley See Notes Tanner

The Mowrey Book and this orginal record are again in conflict.  Riley is
listed as the son of Jesse "Ike" Tanner (Sr.) b. abt 1795 AND Jesse "Buffalo"
Tanner.


3390. Elizabeth See Notes Tanner

The Mowrey Book and this orginal record are again in conflict.  Elizabeth is
listed as the daughter of Jesse "Ike" Tanner (Sr.) b. abt 1795 AND Jesse
"Buffalo" Tanner.


3391. Sarah See Notes Tanner

The Mowrey Book and this orginal record are again in conflict.  Sarah
is listed as the daughter of Jesse "Ike" Tanner (Sr.) b. abt 1795 AND Jesse
"Buffalo" Tanner.


3392. Samantha Tanner

I, (the author of the Mowrey publication, Paul Mowrey)  place the
Samantha Tanner (born circa 1826) who is found in the 1850 census of
Jackson County, Virginia, here but not proven.


3393. Samuel Tanner Jr.

I, (the author of the Mowrey publication) place the Samuel Tanner Jr. (born
circa 1832) who is found in the 1850
census of Jackson County, Virginia and who signed the 5 December 1855 petition
for the formation of Roane County here, but not proven.


Lucinda (Gandee) Raines

LUCINDA WAS ABT 31 YRS YOUNGER TAN JESSE. LIVED IN ROANE CO WVA
IN CENSUS: 1860,70,80. THEIR LOG HOUSE BUILT BY JESSE WAS LOCATED ON
THEIR LARGE FARM WHICH IS NOW KNOWN AS THE ALVOID SECTION OF SPENCER,
WVA. THE CABIN SAT ON A KNOLL ACROSS FROM THE RAYMOND CARPER HOUSE NOW
STANDS.

SPOUSE: Jesse "Ike" or Jesse "Buffalo" Tanner?  The same person?

It is interesting to note that in the Mowrey book concerning this marriage,
there are no birth dates given for any of the children.  This is in variance
with all other families which at least show a year of birth.


3394. Minter Tanner

Minter Jackson Tanner was born 24 August 1862, died 3 June 1951 and  married 1
March 1887 Angeline Wine (daughter of Richard W. and Nancy (Miller)  Wine) and
2nd 3 April 1912 Ada Mae Perrill.

Confusion agin occurs in this marriage.  The Mowrey book shows this marriage
with 5 children, as entered in this record, but, the first birth, Richard
DeWitt is in 1914.  It is unlikely that Minter and Angeline were married in
1887, and had no children untill 1914!  However, Minter may have gone away for
that length of time, or whatever?


Angeline Wine

Angeline Wine was born around 1865 and married Minter J. Tanner 1  March 1887.
Minter was a son of Jesse and Lucinda (Gandee) Raines Tanner.


3395. Rosa Tanner

Rosa Tanner was born in July of 1866 and married Albert "Abe" Goff circa
1883, 2nd 3 March 1892 Augustus Droddy and 3rd Marshall e.Greathouse.


3396. Zelpha Mary Tanner

Zilpha Molly Tanner was born circa 1868, died 1937 and married Joe Smith.
In 1870 census she is called Zelpha age 2 yrs. b. Va.
In 1880 census she is called Mary age 12 b. Va.


1591. Mathias See Notes Carpenter

Mathias' father is believed to be Samuel Carpenter (1742) son of Joseph.
Not proven.

HISTORICAL SKETCHES OF
THE CARPENTER AND BURTON FAMILIES
BY DAVID RILEY CARPENTER, NEWTON, KANSAS
MATHIAS CARPENTER AND TWO BROTHERS COME FROM HOLLAND AND SETTLED IN NORTH
CAROLINA ABOUT THE LATTER PART OF THE 18TH CENTURY.  TWO OF THESE BROTHERS
WENT SOUTH AND MATHIAS REMAINED IN NORTH CAROLIA AND BECAME A RICH
SLAVEHOLDER.
MATHIAS HAD THREE CHILDREN, ONE GIRL AND TWO BOYS. ONE BOY WAS ACCIDENTALLY
KILLED WHEN GROWN, THE OTHER, DAVID CARPENTER IS THE GRANDFATHER OF THIS THE
OLDEST GENERATION OF CARPENTERS LIVING, AND JACOB CARPENTER HIS SECOND CHILD
AND FIRST SON IS THE FATHER OF THIS CARPENTER FAMILY.
MATHIAS CARPENTER, THE SLAVEHOLDER, DIVIDED HIS SLAVES BETWEEN HIS TWO
CHILDREN, AND DAVID CARPENTER WAS A SLAVEHOLDER JUST LONG ENOUGH TO WRITE
EACH ONE'S DISCHARGE OR RELEASE FROM SLAVERY, AND THAT RELEASE WAS
PERMANENT.
THIS DAVID CARPENTER, AND HIS WIFE CATHARINE MAY REARED TEN CHILDREN, FIVE
BOYS AND FIVE GIRLS.   ABOUT THE YEAR 1833, THE YEAR THAT ALL THE STARS
FELL, HE AND HIS FAMILY MOVED TO MONROE COUNTY, INDIANA AND SETTLED NEAR THE
LITTLE VILLAGE OF STAMFORD.  HERE HE LIVED TILL ABOUT THE YEAR 1870.  WHEN
HE WENT TO MISSOURI FOR A FEW YEARS, HE HAD ACCUMULATED CONSIDERABLE
PROPERTY, AND WAS ABLE TO GIVE EACH OF HIS CHILDREN FORTY ACRES OF LAND.
MEANTIME HE HAD VOLUNTERED AS A SOLDIER IN THE MEXICO WAR.(PER:   HELEN
JONES ADAMS, "I REMEMBER SEEING THE RIFLE DAVID CARRIED HANGING OVER THE
DOORWAY OF GRANDAD'S PLACE IN NEW MEXICO.  WHAT HAPPENED TO IT, I DO NOT
KNOW".  MEXICAN WAR 1846-1847- GENERAL SCOTT TOOK MEXICO CITY SEPTEMBER 14,
1847.  TREATY OF GUADALUPE HIDALGO FEBRUARY 2, 1848.) BUT ON HIS WAY ACROSS
THE GULF OF MEXICO TO THE WAR ZONE, HIS COMMAND WAS MET BY THE RETURNING,
CONQUERING ARMY FROM MEXICO.  HE WAS A MEMBER OF THE METHODIST CHURCH AND AT ONE TIME A METHODIST CLASS LEADER.
CATHARINE (MAY) CARPENTER, LIVED TO BE ABOUT 70 YEARS OLD AND DAVID
CARPENTER LIVED TO BE 97 YEARS OLD.  THEY WERE BOTH BURIED IN THE GREEN
COUNTY METHODIST CHURCH YARD, OR GRAVEYARD, ONE MILE WEST OF THE VILLAGE OF
STAMFORD, INDIANA.  SEVERAL OTHERS OF THE CARPENTER FAMILY WERE BURIED
THERE.
JACOB CARPENTER, THE FATHER OF THIS OLDEST GENERATION OF CARPENTERS, WAS
BORN IN NORTH CAROLINA, MAY 16.1818, AND HIS WIFE, ELIZABETH BURTON WAS BORN
IN NORTH CAROLINA DECEMBER 12, 1824.  THEY WERE UNITED IN MARRIAGE MARCH 16,
1843, NEAR ORLEANS, INDIANA.  AFTER LIVING HERE AND THERE FOR A TIME THEY
SETTLED ON A LITTLE FARM IN MONRO COUNTY, NEAR THE VILLAGE OF STAMFORD,
INDIANA IN THE YEAR 1855.  HERE THEY REARED THE LAST HALF OF THEIR FAMILY OF
14, 9 GIRLS AND FIVE BOYS.
IN THE SPRING OF 1871 THEY MOVED TO HARRISON COUNTY, MISSOURI, AND IN 1874
THEY MOVED TO ADAMS COUNTY, NEBRASKA AND SETTLED NEAR HASTINGS.  HERE THEY
CELEBRATED THEIR GOLDEN WEDDING, MARCH 16, 1893 WHEN TWELVE CHILDREN SAT
DOWN WITH THEM AT THE DINNER TABLE.  IN 1894 THEY SETTLED ON A LITTLE FARM
ONE MILE EAST OF THE TOWN OF FRANKLIN.  JACOB DIED MARCH 14, 1913, AT THE
AGE OF 97 (95), LACKING TWO MONTHS.   ELIZABETH DIED APRIL 6, 1905.  THEIR
REMAINS LIE SIDE BY SIDE IN THE GREENWOOD CEMETARY NEAR FRANKLIN, NEBRASKA.
HERE ABOUT 15 RELATIVES OF THE CARPENTERS AND BURTONS ARE BURIED.  TODAY BUT
FIVE OF THEIR CHLIDREN ARE LIVING;  SARAH C. BURTON, ON A FARM NEAR
FRANKLIN, NEBRASKA, DAVID RILEY CARPENTER, IN NEWTON KANSAS, MRS MAGGIE E
JONES, IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, MRS. AMANDA P. HARRISON IN GEERING,
NEBRASKA, AND JAMES T. CARPENTER ON A FARM NEAR POWELL, WYOMING. (WE DON'T
KNOW WHEN THIS WAS WRITTEN, PROBABLY BETWEEN 1939 AND 1940 SOMETHING.  David
Riley Carpenter died April 21, 1944.)
RECAPITULATION:
AT THE TIME OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION A BAND OF MURDEROUS TORIES WENT
THROUGH THE COUNTRY KILLING ALL WHO WERE IN SYMPATHY WITH THE COLONIES, AND
WHEN THEY CAME TO THE HOME OF MATHIAS CARPENTER, HE WAS SICK IN BED, SO TWO
OF THEIR NUMBER TOOK HIM OUT OF THE BED AND STRETCHED HIM ACROSS THE OPEN
DOOR, WHILE A THRID STOOD OUTSIDE AND SHOT AT HIM.  AT THE CRACK OF THE GUN
THE TWO MEN LET THEIR VICTIM FALL TO THE FLOOR, SUPPOSING HIM TO BE DEAD.
HE WAS NOT STRUCK BY THE BALL AND WHEN THE TORIES WERE GONE HE GOT BACK IN
BED.  WHEN THE TORIES HAD MADE THEIR ROUNDS THEY RETURNED BY WAY OF THIS
HOUSE AND STOPPED AND CONSULTED WHETHER THEY SHOUD GO IN AND SEE IF THEIR
VICTIM WAS STILL ALIVE, BUT FINALLY DECIDED HE WAS DEAD ENOUGH, SO THEY WENT
ON.
JOHN PLEASANT BURTON WAS A REVOLUTION SOLDIER, A VOLUNTEER FROM VIRGINIA.
HE DIED IN INDIANA, AND WAS BURIED IN THE OLD BURTON GRAVEYARD, TWO OR THREE
MILES WEST OF MITCHEL, INDIANA.  AS IT WAS THE CUSTOM FOR SOME OF THE
REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIERS TO BE BURIED STANDING, HE REQUESTED TO BE BURIED THE
SAME WAY, WHICH REQUEST WAS GRANTED.
