Donna Ione Harris
Donna Ione was divorced from LeRoy, 19 Nov 1949 Married (2) George E. Hellewell, 1950, divorced 13 Sept 1971. Donna researched and compiled many of the descendants of Robert Carpenter (Abt 1775) and Phebe McNair (1781) Carpenter. As many ancestors as we could find are also included. Donna is retired from School Administrative work and spends most of her time compiling Carpenter and related family records. She has spent many, many hours researching and collecting data on these families. She received tremendous help from Elma Carpenter of Battle Creek, MI, and Helen Fox of Canandaigua, NY, as well as many others too numerous to mention.
The material in these records have been sent to us from the individuals themselves and/ or relatives. We have also found additional information in official records, newspapers, and reunion notes. We will not be responsible for errors we may have received, as all material has not be validated. With all our attempts for accuracy, we know their will be some errors, but none were purposeful. Please be charitable, we have tried very hard to be accurate. Some files were edited for grammar and/or spelling errors, and some were not.
We feel you, who are searching for your ancestors, will be saved countless hours if you find your name in this file as all people are linked to ancestors and descendants if they were known or could be found. The 14,606 names we are submitting to John Carpenter for his "Carpenter CD" represent over forty years of research. The cost to do this much compiling, has not been calculated, but it is a considerable amount. Please use the information we are providing with care, and respect the privacy of those you meet through this file. Thank you, Donna Harris Hellewell. Submitted in March 2001.

Mabel Josephine Jackson
From a letter written in 1966 we were given a different wedding date--13 Sept 1923.
Howard McNair was distantly related to Mabel Josephine Jackson prior to their marriage. Howard was the son of Nora McNair who was the daughter of John Abner McNair and Eliza Jane Eaton. John Abner McNair was the son of John H. McNair and Hannah Allen Carpenter. (Hannah Allen Carpenter was a sister to John McNair Carpenter, who is the father of Eunice Carpenter Jackson, Mabel Josephine Jackson's mother. Therefore Mabel's grandfather, John McNair Carpenter was a brother to Howard's great-grandmother Hannah Allen Carpenter.
There is even a further relationship because John McNair Carpenter and Hannah Allen Carpenter's mother's maiden name was McNair, Rebecca McNair Carpenter, and her brother Thomas Allen McNair was the father of John H. Nair, Howard's great-grandfather. If you go one generation further back, Abner Carpenter's, (Rebecca's husband and father to John McNair Carpenter and Hannah Allen Carpenter), mother was Phebe McNair Carpenter, wife of Robert Carpenter. Robert's father, also named Robert, was killed in the Revolutionary War. We finally found that Phebe McNair and Rebecca McNair's fathers were half-brothers. The McNair line is interwoven with the Carpenter line in several places. We are indebted to Mrs. Fox in Canandaigua, NY for her work on the McNair line as well as Robert Carpenter line. Hopefully, records we have on the McNair line may be published.
Mabel was listed as "of Akron, OH" on sister Mary's obituary. Miss Cox's letter gave husband's (Howard McNair's) mother as Nora McNair. Miss Cox was a grandaughter to Jane Carpenter, daughter of Abner Carpenter and Rebecca McNair.
Howard Eugene McNair
Mother was Nora McNair. This is correct.

Kathryn Louise Jackson

Woodford Gene Williams

Surviving sons: Joe of West Union, (IL), Roger of Irving, TX, and Richard of Marshall, (IL). 3 brothers: Harold D. of Cassey, IL, Leon of Martinsville, and Perry Jr. of Marshall and 8 grandchildren. Death record in Marshall, Clark, IL, has his name as Woodrow, but it should have been Woodford.
