1371. Thomas B. Carpenter

Number 703 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 131.
No family listed.
Descendants submitted by: Jack A. Schoedinger.
on Sun, 6 Aug 2000 From: Jack A Schoedinger

E-MAIL: Thu, 9 Sep 1999 From: "John F. Chandler"
To: John Carpenter
John,
Thanks for the response.  Yes, the 1738 Thomas is the one you
identified (your #20519).  (By the way, you show him as born in West
Greenwich, but that town wasn't set off from East Greenwich until 1741.
It's true that his birth record is found in the VR of W.G., but that
just shows how asynchronous the VR collection tended to be in RI!)
Now, I have a couple of challenges for you, if you care to accept them.
The first concerns the parents of this Thomas (Thomas & Elizabeth).
Observe that Beriah was a rare name, even in those days.  Do you have
an explanation of where Thomas and Elizabeth got that name for one of
their sons?  If not, then I submit the following: your Oliver #7828
had a brother Joseph who, according to Austin, had a son Thomas about
the same age as #7839; this Joseph married Mary Brown on 1702/3 Mar 18
in Warwick (per VR); and Mary was in fact the daughter of Beriah Brown
(per VR).  From this, I conclude that the father of Beriah #20523 was
quite possibly the son of Joseph, instead of the son of Oliver.  Can
you refute that?
The second comes from the GEDCOM file you attached.  I observe that it
contains two sets of siblings that appear to be duplicates:
(A) #7833 Abigail, #7834 Anne, and #7839 Thomas, and
(B) #12960 Abigail/Abia, #12961 Anna, and #12962 Thomas.
All four girls have the same birth date and same birth place.  As it
happens, there is an actual record of the birth of twins on that date,
but it was in Warwick, not Kingstown.  Even though your GEDCOM didn't
include the parents in either family, I can deduce them from the context
(such as the date of marriage in family B).  Family B is Joseph & Mary
of Warwick, who by the way had at least two other children not shown
in the file, and family A is evidently Oliver & Sarah.  Doesn't the
confusion over the twins suggest that the Thomases may also be confused?
As long as I'm at it, let me throw in a third.  Oliver #7828 is shown in
your file as having a son Oliver Jr #7846 (c1695-1727).  However, the
same page in the East Greenwich VR that gives us the birth of Sarah
#7848 in 1717 also shows the birth of Oliver Jr on 1716 Oct 24.  Also,
I note that Oliver Sr's will was written on 1727 Nov 20 (over a month
after he took administration of the estate of his son Oliver), and yet
the will refers to a *living* son Oliver as his *youngest* son.  To top
it off, there is a record in North Kingstown of the birth of a son Oliver
to Oliver and Sarah on 1727 Jul 24.  That all seems to me to add up to
a minor son Oliver who had some inherited property that needed proper
disposition in 1727 when he died (obviously intestate and without any
heirs other than his father), plus a second son Oliver named after
the first and therefore presumably born shortly after the first son
Oliver died.  How do you square this with the statement I see in the
file for #7846, that three children born 1714, 1717 and 1723 were his?
I have attached (apologises to those who hate attachments) a GEDCOM of
85 Carpenters in Washington County, RI (formerly NewPort) born between
1699 and 1750 (plus or minus a bit).
Is that why the file has so many families with no parents (even when the
marriage is specified)?  I.e., if the parents aren't listed as being
born in Washington or Newport county between 1690 and 1760, they weren't
included in the file?
In any case, the file has proven helpful, despite the various bits of
confusion.  However, in the final analysis, I'm still left with the same
question: is there any evidence to show that the Thomas Carpenter who
died in 1815 in Exeter, RI was the same as #20519 (or any evidence to
show he was not)?   John.

Hi John
Some time in the past I recall a discussion about the two Thomas Carpenters 1707-1778 and his son Thomas 1730-1815. The discussion was about the son being married to a Dorcas Grinnell being incorrect. I finally found the records of this marriage taking place in South Kingstown,R.I. and the marriage by Dr. Joseph Torrey on 10-25-1759. The original Church Records are at R.I. Historical Society.  (Source: Dr. Joseph Torrey and his Record Book of Marriages by William Davis Miller, Page 14)

1372. Nicholas Carpenter

Number 708 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 131.
Family on page 247 (#261).  A farmer.

NOTE:
On Page 765 of the Carpenter Memorial under number 8097-d is the following partial note:
Nicholas, No. 708. the grandfather of this family; died in Waterboro, Me. in 1822. He was the first settler in North Waterboro. which was then called Massabesic Plantation and settled all of his sons except Benjamin near him. ...
- The note then describes his son John and his two marriages and second marriage children. Strangely this note is under his daughter Mary who married Capt. William Sedgley instead of son John. I believe the normal separator is missing here. So it appears as if the note belongs to 9097-d Mary.

NOTE:
He moved to Somersworth, NH (correction: Waterboro, ME!) aft 1761 and died there in 1822.
He settled all his sons there except Benjamin. Per notes on page 837.
Nicholas appears to have enlisted on Nov. 5, 1775, in Moses ____?'s Company,
on Pierce's Island; again as private. July 3, 1780: was discharged Oct. 26,
1780 and was on the payroll for the defense of West Point in Captain Tim
Emerson's company.
Jerry Carpenter ( jcarp1939@gmail.com) adds:
Further records in the NH State Library show that his first enlistment was in Capt. Moses Yeaton's company. His enlistment on July 3, 1780 was in Captain Tim Emerson's company in the Regiment of Col. Thomas Bartlett. For this 3 months period, he was paid a total of 679 £ 6p for wages, travel, meals. Seems like a large amount of money for those time and for 3 months work.
Jerry add more:
Nicholas is buried in North Waterboro, just outside the Carpenter cemetery on Clark's Bridge Road. In a book about " North Waterboro History, Waterboro, Maine 1768-1955" by Ernest G. Knights, the following was written about the Carpenter family in Waterboro, York County, Maine. The record of a school district meeting held in the Carpenter district in Waterboro more than 150 years ago, and in the possession of L. W. Carpenter, M.D. of Limerick, Maine reads as follows: "Waterborough, February 6, 1804 No. 5. This certifies, met and voted to have a school six weeks after Moderator Chapman Clark {says} Nicholas Carpenter gives consent to let us have a school in his house. Schoolmaster struck off to Nat Carpenter at 5-3 per week." This Nicholas Carpenter who "gave consent", was the descendant of William Carpenter of Rehoboth. In the "Carpenter Memorial" by Amos Bugbee Carpenter, he would be Nicholas #708. Nicholas came to Waterboro shortly after the close of the Revolutionary War and built his cabin on a spot near the residence of the late Jennie M. Fox, whose ancestor he was. His grave is nearly opposite the spot where he built his lowly dwelling. The "Nat Carpenter" mentioned above was one of his sons and was elected Highway Surveyor at the town's first meeting after incorporation in March, 1787. The great-grandson of Nicholas, Nathaniel W. Carpenter, caused the erection of a proper memorial at his grave several years ago.
LAND:
Nicholas Carpenter, of North Waterborough, Maine (Mass at that time) who got his 180 acres by being a veteran of the Revolutionary War. All recorded in the York County seat in Alfred, Maine.

Per the Beekman Patent book he had 6 children. See father's notes.

FACTS REGARDING WEEDSPORT NEW YORK
by LAZELLE R. HOPKINS, A. M. Privately printed - 1933
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nycayuga/books/factsrgw/index.html
WEEDSPORT IN 1854
From a copy of the Weedsport Times dated Sept. 23, 1854, these items were taken by S. D. Lee, a former editor of this place. The Times was published by Charles T. White, the first issue being put out Feb. 2, 1854. Mr. White did not find Weedsport a profitable field for in 1857 he moved his office to Newark, N.Y.
The Times says its home was in the building three doors south of the Basin Bridge and directly opposite C. Carpenter's blacksmith shop; subscription $1.00 per annum.
AND ...
SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS The Ancient and Honorable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York is under the jurisdiction of a Grand Lodge which meets once a year in New York City. This Grand Lodge of competent jurisdiction issued to Brutus Lodge No. 324, August 18, 1819, a charter that was surrendered a few years later--time and cause unknown.
In 1824, another charter was granted to Erie Canal Lodge No. 385. This lodge surrendered its charter and dissolved about 1826, due probably to the anti-masonic feeling aroused by the disappearance of William Morgan of Batavia.
The present lodge, Weedsport Lodge No. 385, was organized June 13, 1856. The first officers were Andrew Sittser, Master; Calvin Carpenter, S. W.; William Watson, J. W. It was probably the early meetings of this lodge which were held in the second story of the Baptist parsonage on Liberty Street. There were fifty-four members in 1879.

Subject: Re: SC Archives for Carpenters

SC (South Carolina) was involved in trade with New England and several New England Carpenters established merchant or mariner outposts in the southern port cities.
**** The Oliver mentioned in the SC archives was a mariner, possibly ABC #208. ****
The Richard was a merchant from Rhode Island who traveled throughout the southeast -- you can read more about him in my article "Richard Carpenter, Pioneer Merchant of British West Florida and the Natchez District of Spanish West Florida," in the National Genealogical Society Quarterly, Vol. 72, No. 1 (March 1984), pp. 51-62.  He is ABC #621.
The Dan Carpenter in Camden SC is ABC #1525, pp. 216, 370.  (His brother Timothy #1527 was an itinerant Methodist preacher who settled in Tennessee.)  Lucy (Blanding) Carpenter, widow of Phanuel Carpenter ABC #2028, also lived in Camden SC.  The Abiah Carpenter may be ABC #719, who is unaccounted for in ABC.  Margaret and husband George Carpenter lived near Abiah and were probably related, but again, not enough evidence to prove anything.  The later Carpenters in the piedmont counties were from PA, VA, and NC lines.  Lots of interesting possibilities in the South!

Attached is an excel spreadsheet of early SC Carpenters starting in 1719 that I condensed from the SC Archives.
I was interested in the Edgefield group, but noticed a Daniel Carpenter mentioned with a location of Goshen NY and reference to a SC will.  Maybe you know someone who may be interested it that.
