Family on page 126 & 127. At the close of the Revolution, he sold his property
at Marlborough and having entire confidence in the money of the times took for
his pay a sum of Continental money. Of course it proved worthless and he moved
to New York City with almost nothing. He and his wife and daughters started a
millinery establishment at 73 Chatham Street. This business proved very
successful and it was continued until his death. The daughters retired from
business in 1831. His will was proved May 11, 1826.
Wright Carpenter was a lieutenant in the New York Militia. He was a prisoner
of war from 16 Feb. to 4 July 1781. Per Hist. Reg. of Rev. Officers by F. B.

Last week Lieut. Wright Carpenter and two others went down to Col James
DeLancey's quarters, and laid in wait for his appearance; he accordingly came,
and having tied his horse at the door, wett into the house; pon which which
Carpneter seized the horse ad mounted when DeLancey discovering him,
immediately alarmed his men, who pursued to Whit Plains but in vain. This hor is one
of the finest in America, he cost DeLlancey 200L. Carpentr was offered 150L
as soon as he broought him in. The cowboys had plundered Carpentr of all his
cattle some time before, When Mr. Carpenter went dow with a flag, and
complained of the cruelty of taking his cattle, and told DeLancey he would have
his horse by way of retailation;upon which DeLacey sneeringly replied, "you man

John,
I came across the carpentercousins website today and was very pleased with the information found there. I am a descendant of Wright Carpenter's daughter Mary.
Have you reviewed
The History of The Town of Marlborough, Ulster County, New York: From the First Settlement in 1712, by Capt Wm. Bond, to 1887, by Charles H. Cochrane, Poughkeepsie, NY, 1887.
OLIN F 129.M34.C66 1887a page 14 (PDF page 34+)
I downloaded a PDF copy of the book. It was originally sourced from the Cornell University Library and has been digitized by Google.
I can probably send you the PDF document if you cannot find it.
I see that there are some differences in that book and the information on the website. I was wondering if this source might be helpful to you or whether it has been proven inaccurate and I should not use it as a source/reference.
Thanks,

THE CARPENTER FAMILY
In an old burying-ground in Lattingtown (now written Lattintown) on the Odell farm, is a tombstone upon which
Page 14 - The History of Marlborough
is the following inscription : " In memory of Joseph Carpenter, first settler of this place and planter of this orchard. Departed this life July 11, 1766, aged 61 years, 3 mos. and 6 days." Although the stone is begrimed by age and the lettering almost obliterated, enough is shown to establish the fact that Joseph Carpenter was among the first to select Marlborough as his abode. The family 'records say that he first settled in Marlborough in 1753, and that his wife's name was Sarah. They came from Glen Cove, L. I., and settled in Lattintown, where they spent the greater portion of their lives. In 1778 Benjamin Carpenter came from England and settled near his brother in Lattintown.
Wright Carpenter was born March 2, 1749, and was the son of Joseph and Sarah Carpenter. He married Anne Smith, sister of Capt. Anning Smith, of this town, July 5, 1772, she being then only seventeen years of age. Little is known of Wright Carpenter, except that he left a good name to a large posterity.
He had thirteen children :
Luff, born May 4, 1773, died 1813 ;
Asa, born May 16, 1774;
Mobury, born April 25, 1775, died Jan. 1, 1851;
Mary, born March 27, 1777;
Leonard, born March 8, 1779 ;
Anne, born May 15, 1780 ;
Joseph, Aug. 22, 1781 ;
Sarah, born May 2, 1783;
Ruth, born Sept. 14, 1788, died Mar. 3o, 1840;
Latting, born Sept. 11, 1789, died Nov. 15, 1848 ;
Hannah, born July 31, 1792, died Aug. 4, 1834;
Julia, born Jan. 3, 1794;
Leonard, born Dec. 25, 1798.
Mobury Carpenter, the third son of Wright Carpenter, left a greater impress on Marlborough than any of the elder members of the family. He was a busy man, and erected the house at Hampton, where Alexander Young now lives.
There he lived while he was in partnership with his brother Joseph, in a store at the dock. He also sailed sloops to New York.
In 1843 he built the store now occupied by James Carpenter & Son, and kept a general country store. He was a man of genial temperament, being universally liked. Joseph Carpenter left the store at the dock after some years, and settled in Cornwall, where he died.

He was also father of Mrs. Margaret A., wife of Gershorn Thorn, now living on Bingham street, Marlborough.

scent to Ezra Carpenter, of Wales, England, born in 1550. His son Richard, born in 1593, had A son Ephraim, born June 17, 1627, in Wales. He came to America in 1678, and had a son Ephraim, who had a son Ashmead, born Aug. n, 1689.
Ashmead's second son was Benedict, born Jan. 11, 1715, and lived in Westchester.
Benedict was father to Elijah Carpenter, who had a son Haydock Carpenter, of Plattekill, and he was father to William Carpenter, who came from Plattekill to Milton 34 years ago. Here he became possessor of a fruit farm, and practiced surveying.
William married a Flagler, and his children are
Caroline, who married Herbert Sabin, and settled at Amherst ;
Mary E., who married Chas. S. Pope, and settled in Manchester, Me.;
Annie M. married George L. Cary, of Gansevoort, Saratoga county ; Charles M., who married Julia Wilkelow. and lives in Lloyd ;
Enoch F., who resides with his father in Milton, and carries on fruit farming and surveying.

Hi John,
I'm reading through an article & wonder if you've seen this & whether you have the 18 Carpenters noted in it?
Here is one:
"The Westchester Historian Volume 66 No. 4 Fall 1990, page 91
Notices in the Hudson River Chronicle - Deaths Dec 25, 1838
Carpenter, Benjamin died in Somers Dec 17, 1838, age 62. Member of Society of Friends."
If you've seen this source I won't bother copying & sending them to you. This Benjamin has dates similar to a Benjamin Carpenter you once sent me who was born 1775 & died 1835.
To refresh your memory on those that I research...

Dear Jean,
The dates are too close. While it may be a chance, they appear to be the same person.
The Westchester Historian Volume 66 No. 4 Fall 1990, page 91
Notices in the Hudson River Chronicle - Deaths
Dec 25, 1838
Carpenter, Benjamin died in Somers Dec 17, 1838, age 62. Member of Society of Friends.
I double checked the death date in the 1901 book and it does say 17 Dec 1835. My guess is that we may have found a typo!
I will make a note regarding this.
And yes, I would be interested in seeing more. Okay to share on the Carpenter forum?
Good Ops!
