Dear John Carpenter:
It has been some time since we have been in contact. I assume that your efforts
on the Carpenter CD are progressing. I look forward to hearing more about it.
I have continued to worry about our discrepancy about Abner Carpenter who
married a Hawes girl. Where do my ancestors fit with your ancestors? Possibly
you have this all worked out by now. However, please let me see if the
information I have been collecting helps any.
The 1840 censuses are informative (the identification of names is my own effort
since, as you know, names were not yet included at the time of the 1840
census.):
CENSUS1:
Abner Carpenter - 1840 Census, Overton TN, (page 023) lists: 2 males < 5, 1
male 5-10 [Hesicar/Hezekiah], 1 male 60-70 [Abner], 1 female 5-10, 2 females
10-15, 1 female 15-20 and 1 female 40-50 [Hannah].
CENSUS2:
Abner Carpenter - 1840 Census Crawford Co PA 9 page 398-9) lists: 1 50-60 yr
old male (Abner=53), 1 30-40 female [Mary Barlow, Abner's second wife], 3 15-20
yr males (Aaron=21, Parley=16, Riley), 1 20-30 yr. male (Charles H.=23), 1 <5yr
male (Ezra?), 1 5-10 male , 1 5-10 female, 1 10-15 yr female (Sophia=15), 1
20-30 yr. female (Nancy). (Welcome was married in 1838.), [Abner's first wife,
Nancy, died in 1835] (the two young children may be Mary's by her first
husband)
I have been able to get into the Mormon on-line data base and have found Abner
Carpenter (AFN: BSF7-1G) born (1783 or 1808) in Bristol MA (Rehoboth) and died
in Abilene KS in June 1854. His wife, Hannah Hawes (AFN: BSF7-2M) was also born
in Bristol (1787 or 1812). Their children, all born in TN, are listed as:
Hesicar (AFN: 2J6M-2Q)(16 Sep 1834-14 Jan 1908) dying in Humbolt NE; Diane
(AFN: 162G-NNR)(b- 1848); Catherine (AFN: 162G-NN5)(b 1842); Elizabeth (AFN:
162G-NPC)(b 1844, died 1908 in Humbolt); and Ludicye (AFN: 162G-NQK)(b- 1846).
The IGI lists Abner's marriage to Hannah Hawes about 1833 In TN.
On the other hand, the IGI lists Nancy Hawes (AFN: Q82F-Q3) as being born in
West Brattleboro VT 17 Dec 1788 and dying in Guys Mills PA 2 Sep 1835. She
married Abner Carpenter (AFN: 1W0Z-KWD) in 1811 in Brattleboro. Abner was born
5 Jun 1787 in Brattleboro VT and died 4 Aug 1845 in Guys Mills PA.
The Mormon data shows that the Brattleboro Hawes were descended from
Massachusetts Hawes, living in the Boston and Dorchester areas. I have not
found the tie between the two Hawes women.
I am sorry that the mistake made by Amos B Carpenter about Hannah Hawes in the
Carpenter Memorial caused this confusion. I hope your and my efforts will
clarify the records.
Please note that I have a new e-mail address. MaxMaryRoh@cs.com . I look
forward to hearing how the Carpenters are coming along.
Regards, Max Roha.

SECOND GENERATION
12. Abner Carpenter [70] was christened in 1787 in Brattleboro (Windham) VT.
He was born on 5 Jun 1787 in Brattleboro
(Windham) VT. [11] He appeared on the census in 1820 in Brattleboro (Windham)
VT. [71] 1820 census lists 4 males <10
[Edward=8, Welcome=3, Charles H.=3, Aaron=<1], 1 male 18-26, 1 male 26-45
[Abner=33] and 1 female 26-45 [Nancy=32]
. He appeared on the census in 1830 in Brattleboro (Windham) VT. [72] 1830
census lists 2 males 5-10 [Riley, Parley], 2
males 10-15 [Aaron, Charles H.=13], 1 male 15-20 [Welcome=14], 1 male 40-50
[Abner=53], 1 female <5 [Nancy] and 2
females 40-50 [Nancy=42, and probably her unmarried sister, Susanna Hawes=51].
He immigrated between 1830 and 1835
to Guys Mills (Crawford) PA. Apparently moved from Brattleboro VT to Guys
Mills PA several years after his older brother,
Josiah, moved to Strongsville Ohio, about the same time his sister, Rhoda, and
family, moved to the Strongsville area.. He
appeared on the census in 1840 in Crawford Co., PA. [73] 1840 Census shows: 1
50-60 yr old male (Abner=53), 1 30-40
female [probably Mary Barlow], 3 15-20 yr males (Aaron, Parley, Riley?), 1
20-30 yr. male (Charles H.=23), 1 <5yr male
(Ezra?), 1 5-10 male , 1 5-10 female, 1 10-15 yr female (Sophia=15), 1 20-30
yr. female (Nancy?). (Welcome was married in
1838.), (Nancy had died in 1835, possibly after birth of the son listed here)
(The two young children are possibly Mary
Barlow's by her first husband.) He died on 4 Aug 1845 in Guys Mills (Crawford)
PA. [2] He was buried in Guys Mills
(Crawford) PA. Union Cemetery, North east corner. He has Ancestral File
number BSF7-1G. He has Ancestral File number
1W0Z-KWD. [11] He was listed in Carp-Mem under #1919c. [74] Carpenter
Memorial: Lists only four of Abner's children:
Edward, Welcome, Charles and Nancy. Old photo shows six of his children, as
elderly people: Parley, Riley, Sophia,
Welcome Allen, Charles Henry, Aaron E. (identity per Velva Jones Roha).
He was married to Nancy Hawes in 1811 in Brattleboro (Windham) VT. [11]
Contrary to Amos Carpenter's Carpenter
Memorial, Abner's wife was Nancy Hawes. The Abner Carpenter who married a
Hannah Hawes was born in (near) Rehoboth
MA and was possibly #1523 1/2 in the Carpenter Memorial (page 216, family 225)
Nancy Hawes [75,11,76] was born on 17
Dec 1788 in West Brattleboro (Windham) VT. [2,11] She died on 8 Sep 1835 in
Guys Mills (Crawford) PA. [2] At 47 years
old, possibly in birth of youngest son. She was buried in Guys Mills
(Crawford) PA. North east corner, Union Cemetery.
She has Ancestral File number Q82F-Q3. [11] Nancy Hawes, daughter of Ebenezer
Hawes of Brattleboro VT, had a sister,
Eleanor, who married a very distant relative, Ezra Carpenter (Carpenter
memorial #5754), who settled in Guys Mills
(Crawford) PA a few years earlier than Abner and Nancy. Another sister,
probably unmarried, Susanna, lived with Abner and
Nancy in Brattleboro and in Guys Mills until the death of Nancy, when she moved
in with Ezra and Eleanor. Abner
Carpenter and Nancy Hawes had the following children:
54 i. Edward H. Carpenter was born on 6 Sep 1812 in Brattleboro (Windham) VT.
[2] He died on 6 Nov 1835. He was listed in Carp-Mem under #8465. [77]
+55 ii. Welcome Allen Carpenter.
56 iii. Sophia Carpenter was born on 4 Apr 1815 in Brattleboro (Windham) VT.
She died on 29 Mar 1818 in VT. [2]
+57 iv. Charles Henry Carpenter.
+58 v. Aaron Edward Carpenter.
+59 vi. Riley Carpenter.
+60 vii. Parley Carpenter.
61 viii. Nancy Carpenter was born between 1825 and 1830 in Brattleboro
(Windham) VT. She was listed in Carp-Mem under #8468. [78]
+62 ix. Sophia Carpenter.
63 x. Ezra Carpenter was born between
1835 and 1840. [79] He died on 28 Sep 1850. [2]
He was married to Mary Barlow between 1835 and 1840 in Guys Mills (Crawford)
PA. [80,81] Abner was widowered September 8, 1835. His second wife,
Mary Barlow, was widowed October 6, 1834. 1840 census shows a 30-40 yr woman,
and some younger children, living with Abner and his family. Mary Barlow [82]
was born bet 1800 and 1810.. [83] Mary's
maiden name is unknown. We refer to her by her first married name, Mary Barlow,
out of convenience. It is not know which
of the listed children are hers or which (i.e Rachael) are by Joshua's first,
unknown name, NY-born, wife. They are all listed
here together only for convenience. The fate of Mary Barlow Carpenter, after
the 1845 death of Abner, is unknown. Her two
Barlow children, living with her and Abner in 1840, and her two Abner Carpenter
children were probably still living with her
somewhere in western PA, possibly with a sister, daughter, new husband, etc.
under a different family name. Her two
Carpenter daughters, Mittie and Ella Carpenter, later married and appeared at
Carpenter family reunions in the late 1800's.
Abner Carpenter and Mary Barlow had the following children:
+64 i. Ella Carpenter.
+65 ii. Mittie Carpenter.

Dear John - It has been some time since we have had contact. I presume the
Carpenter CD project has been advancing.
I do not know if you are still adding material or whether the project is now
closed. I was recently in Meadville, PA, where my Carpenter branch lived. In
their Historical Society, I found some documents my mother, Velva Jones Roha,
generated in 1975, just before her death. They duplicate some and go beyond
the information I have sent you. I have copied them and put them into my
computer. For your consideration ...
Children of Abner Carpenter (1787-1845), son of James (1738-1829)
With Descendants of his son, Parley Carpenter (1824-1903)
