A Farmer. He was an observer at the Battle of Bunker Hill. Was actually near
enough to get grazed by a ball which killed a cow. He was with Washington
crossing the Delaware. See notes in book.
His father is Number 575 in book.MILITARY:
He was a soldier in the Revolution between three and four years;
he was with Washington in crossing the Delaware and participated
in many of the important battles of the war. April 19, 1775,
the battle of Lexington was fought, and about four o'clock in
the afternoon of the 21st, the news of the battle reached
Foxboro with the call to the "minute men" to march at once to
the assistance of the American troops near Boston. Ezra was in
the field ditching, when he received the news; leaving his spade
in the ditch he hastened home and with his step-mother's
assistance packed his knapsack and at sunset on that April
night, started on foot for the seat of war. He walked as far as
Walpole where he halted to rest, turned in but didn't sleep a
wink as he says "I was so excited and anxious to fight the
red-coats." In the morning he pushed on to Dedham where the
regiment was stationed and in two days marched to Boston.
Although not a participant, yet he was a witness of the Battle
of Bunker Hill, and so near that a stray bullet cut his
underclothing grazing the skin, and killed a cow. In all the
after years of his life it was a source of regret that he could
not have been one of the immortal patriots engaged in that
famous battle. When age came with its infirmities, nothing
pleased him more than to have us boys gather around him while he
repeated over and over the stirring scenes of the war. He told
of his sufferings with his sore feet from wearing worn-out
shoes.MILITARY: Summary
He enlisted in Capt. Oliver Pond's company, in Col. J.S. Read's
regiment, May 1, 1775; served eight months; Wrentham company.
Ezra Carpenter enlisted again as private in Samuel Crowell's
company, Col. Hawes' regiment, Sept. 25, 1777; served one

'He's one of us'
Rehoboth Minutemen to honor Revolutionary War soldier from regiment
BY JIM HAND SUN CHRONICLE STAFF Nov 9, 2010
FOXBORO - Revolutionary War re-enactor Al Soucey was leafing through a book on the war a few months ago, when he saw a mention of Ezra Carpenter of Foxboro from the 13th Continental Regiment - the same regiment Soucey's Rehoboth Minutemen re-enact.
"I thought, 'Hey, he's one of us,'" said Soucey, a captain in the re-enactor regiment.
He started to further research Carpenter and found his pension application stating he served under Capt. Oliver Pond of Wrentham.
Carpenter missed the battle at Lexington and Concord, but witnessed the battle at Bunker Hill and took part in Washington's crossing of the Delaware and several other battles.
He also wintered at Valley Forge.
Two younger brothers also fought in the war.
Soucey said he found out Carpenter was from Foxboro and owned a home on South Street, which still stands.
But, nobody seemed to know where he was buried.
"You can't imagine how hard it is to find these guys," Soucey said. "It's easy to find the famous people, but it's hard to find a private because there are no records."
Soucey, an Attleboro resident, put another re-enactor, Tom Dietzel of Foxboro, on the case.
Dietzel said an 1890 book on the history of Foxboro stated Carpenter was buried about a mile from his home. Rockhill Cemetery met the criteria.
He searched the cemetery three times before coming across a white marble tombstone with the engraving of a solider on it. It was Carpenter.
"It was great to connect with someone we are re-enacting," Soucey said.
Carpenter apparently no longer has relatives in the area, so the regiment is adopting his gravestone for maintenance and will mark it on special occasions such as Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
At 10 a.m. Saturday, the regiment will gather at the grave to place a plaque touting Carpenter's service. The public is invited.
Meanwhile, Soucey said he is still searching for Oliver Pond's burial place.GRAVE: images

Number 1480 on page 211 in the Carpenter Memorial. His family is #483. A farmer.
He was in the Revolutionary War serving until he was taken down by fever. He used to relate the story of his efforts to get home. Of his coming to a spring of water and drinking his fill, feeling it was almost certain death for him to do so. For in those days and long after it was believed a few drops of water in fever were almost sure to prove fatal. He felt so much refreshed he continued his journey, arrived home safely, and ever after, cold water in abundance was his remedy for a fever.
He enlisted in the Continental Army, July 6, 1780, for six months; age 17, stature five feet 11 inches, complexion dark; served in Nathan Goodals's company; was dismissed Jan 8, 1781.GRAVE: image
