I believe that John and Mary Carpenter belonged to the New Utrecht Dutch Reformed Church in Brooklyn. There are burials noted as follows:
This could be the missing John, Amanda’s father or not. There are two John Carpenters that belonged to the church, one with a wife named Mary and another name Margaret Smith.

Just so everyone knows, I spoke today with the Historian of the New Utrecht Reformed Church and he said those children buried in their cemetery were not of John and Mary Carpenter. They belonged to John and Margaret Carpenter. This appears not to apply to our family. Someone along the line took the abbreviation for Margaret as meaning Mary.

Noah Smith Carpenter
Number 2335 in the Carpenter Memorial. Family is Number 712 in CM.
He was a relative of Samuel, probably of Ridgebury, NY and Benjamin of
Brookfield, NY and Noah the lame man.
SEE: Carpenter Chronicles, Vol. 3, 1990 by Bette Butcher Topp.
She cites: Ancestry and Descendants of Col. Soloman Carpenter, printed by
Rosemary Bachelor of Machias, ME.
Noah was a church member for over 60 years and a veteran of the War of 1812.
He served at Brooklyn Heights, New York City.
BOOK:
The Descendants of Col. Soloman Carpenter Book.
Noah was born in Orange Co., N.Y. Jan. 14, 1782 and died near Middletown, N.Y. July 19, 1864; a professional gardener, he married Mary L. Millspaugh of Montgomery, N.Y.
He was also kin to Samuel Carpenter of Ridgebury, N.Y., Benjamin Carpenter of Brookfield (or Slate Hill), N.Y., and to Noah, the lame man, a post rider and mail carrier who lived at the two-mile stone on LaGrange Road and carried mail from Goshen to Bloomingburgh, N.Y., according to the History of Orange Co.
Noah Smith Carpenter lived in Minisink, N.Y., 1800-1845, in Paterson, N.J., 1845 -1855, then as a widower returned to Orange County and owned a farm and garden field house near Middletown.
On July 20, 1814, Noah Smith Carpenter answered the third call for volunteers in the War of 1812. He enlisted as a private at Minisink Aug. 15, 1814 in Capt. Benjamin Dunning's Co. of Col. Berrian's regiment. They went to Newburgh, then by sloop down the Hudson River to Haarlem and Brooklyn Heights to guard New York City against the British. Noah was discharged Dec. 1, 1814. His service is documented in a land bounty claim on file in the National Archives.
Records of the First Presbyterian Church of Ridgebury,
N.Y. show he and his wife Mary joined the church in 1809. His obituary, which appeared in the Aug. 10, 1864 edition of The Whig, an Orange Co., N.Y. newspaper, said he had been active in church activities more than 60 years, noted he was "beloved by all who knew him for all those amiable qualities which tend to constitute the gentleman and the Christian," and paid tribute to his long life with a poem in his honor.

NOTE:
The Noah Henry Carpenter baptized at the First Presbyterian Church in
Ridgebury, N.Y. on July 5, 1845 was probably a grandson of Noah Smith
Carpenter. By whom is the question!

Wilkins Carpenter….. this was the last of our line to stay in the New York area. He died fairly young and his widow (Mellisant Watkins) remarried a Nathaniel Lockwood – they moved to Wisconsin (Concord, Jefferson, WI). Mellisant had three children with Wilkins before his death; Pheobe (married and stayed in New York), Charles Carr (settled in Pepin, Pepin CO., WI), and Verdine E (who also went to WI, but later died at Lake Providence, Louisiana during the Civil War).
...
Mellisant Watkins
After the death of Wilkins Carpenter, his wife Mellisant remarried Nathaniel Lockwood.
CENSUS: 1830 US Census
Mellisant and Wilkins were still living in New York for the 1830 Census of Mammakating, Sullivan,
NewYork. While the census does not give individual ages, I think it's safe to assume Wilkins,
Mellisant, Phebe, Charles Carr, and baby Verdine were present in this household.
CENSUS: 1840 US Census
By the 1840 census, she is in the household of Nathaniel Lockwood, still in Mammakating, Sullivan, New York.
Her and Wilkins children are present in this household along with a male child "under 5" - which
leads us to believe this would be Mellisant and Nathaniel's first child William, however, William is
reported to have died in 1839, so I believe his "death date" may be wrong, and he died after the
1840 census.
CENSUS: 1850 US Census
By 1850, they are in Wisconsin (Concord, Jefferson Co., WI). Nathaniel is a farmer
(age 38), Mellisant (age 47), Submit (age 12), Samuel (age 10), George (age 8), and Verdine
Carpenter (age 19) all listing their birthplace as New York. With George's age of 8, they couldn't
have left New York any sooner than 1842.
CENSUS: 1860 US Census
By 1860 they are still in Concord, Nathaniel is 48,

Elias Carpenter
Number 2352 in the Carpenter Memorial. Page 289
His family is on page 475 (#713).
Elias enlisted in the Revolutionary army from Stratford, VT in Jan 1781, in Captain Well's Company, Col. Samuel B. Webbs' regiment of CT. He served until 4 Jan 1784 and received a pension (App# 21683) from 9 April 1818.
He was the first man to enter Yorktown at the surrender of Cornwallis.
He was a most loyal Americanuntil his death, telling with great earnestness reminiscences of the war.
Although he was a pious man and never profane, he invaribly spoke of the "tories" as "Damned Tories" so much that one of his grandchildren supposed that "damnedtories" was one word.
The following obituary notice is copied from an old newspaper:
"Died in Stratford, Feb. 16, 1851, Mr. Elias Carpenter, one of the few
surviving Revolutionary Soldiers, aged 90. Mr. Carpenter enlisted in the
service of his country under Washington, when 17 years old, and was at the
evacuation of NY and the taking of Lord Cornwallis which decided the
independence of our country. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal
church."
