Hi John,
I'm attaching a short writeup about John Carpenter of Williamstown VT, who was the father of James B. Carpenter of St. Johnsbury, VT. James was my great-great-grandfather.
...
Best, Steve Whitelaw
John Carpenter was born about 1792, according to his gravestone. (He died January 7, 1846, at age 53). His older brothers and sisters and his younger brother were all born in Pomfret, Vermont, so it is likely that John was born in Pomfret as well. There is no listing of his birth in the Vermont Vital Records, but there are many events around that time that are not listed in the Vermont Vital Records (families were not required by law to register births at that time).
John's parents were Nathaniel Carpenter and Anna (Nancy) Walcott. Nathaniel died on March 5, 1796, at age 40, leaving his wife with at least seven, and probably eight, children. John was only four at the time, so he was too young to have been apprenticed out like his older brothers and sisters. It is likely that John remained with his mother and his older sister Nancy, who was only 9 years old when her father died.
On April 28, 1800, when John would have been eight and his sister Nancy 13, their mother married James Thwing in Pomfret. James's wife Hannah had died on January 1, 1796, just two months before Nathaniel Carpenter died. James had 10 children when his wife died, but the two oldest, Prisca and Susannah were 19 and 18, and so they would have been old enough to look after their younger brothers and sisters. After James and Nancy were married, they moved to nearby Barre, taking young John and possibly his older sister Nancy with them.
John's older sister Nancy married Elisha Flint in Williamstown, Vermont on June 19, 1806, when John would have been about 13. John is not listed in a household of his own in the 1810 census, but he would have been only about 17. It is possible that he was living at the time with his sister Nancy and her husband, as the census (which did not give the names of any but the head of the household) lists their family as having a male aged between 16 and 26 in the household.
On September 2, 1812, John Carpenter took the freeman's oath in Williamstown, Vermont. To take the oath, the person was required to be at least 21 years old, but if John's gravestone is correct, he should have been only 20 at most. He could have been fudging a little on his age, or his gravestone could be incorrect (as was often the case in those days).
In 1812, John was listed in the records of the War of 1812 as having served for six months in 1812, and then for several days in June, 1813.
John Carpenter married Clarissa Hawes on December 2, 1813, in Williamstown, Orange County, Vermont. They were married by Mr. Enoch Burnham, J.P.
Notes:
His existence and date of death and marriage place and date are from
Vermont vital records.
His birth location is inferred from the birth records of his brothers and
sisters, who were born before and after him in Pomfret. His birth date
is from his gravestove, which gives his age as 53 when he died in 1846.
Clarissa Hawes
Father: William Hawes
Mother: Sophia Hyde
John and Clarissa were married by the town clerk, whose name was Mr.
Burnham. This could explain their son James' middle name.
She is listed in "Richard Hawes of Dorchester, Mass.", by Frank Mortimer
Hawes, 1932. In the book (p. 95), the author says she was born probably
in Brookfield, Vt.
Death information is from her gravestone, personally visited by Alice
Eichholz in October, 1991.

Subject: Re: Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project - lineage update 52435 - on hold
Yes, I now know that the lineage shown is wrong. My Joel is Joel Monroe Carpenter, born circa 1785 in VT or Mass. My Joel is the one shown in the 1820 Census in Cambridge VT. In 1822 he moved with family to Gerry, Chautauqua Co. NY. He married circa 1810 Sophronia Wright (b. 1793 in Templeton, Mass). I suspect that they were divorced as Sophronia becomes head of household in Gerry, NY starting 1830. He appears to marry second wife Emily Greenleaf in 1841 in Chautauqua Co. NY and then moves to Wisconsin where he dies before 1849. (There is a land record from WI that is clearly him.) I believe that he was a War of 1812 veteran who served in the VT militia and hence the land grant.
The Joel born in Pomfret in 1795 is too young to have married Sophronia Wright in 1810, and an early record in Pomfret confirms that he was orphaned with guardian appointed at age 16 - 1811. He is the one that goes on to Minnesota in the records you identify below, and who has the son named Wheelock.
That leaves the question of who was my Joel's father? My best current theory is that he may be Barnard Carpenter, born in CT, son of the Barnard identified in the Beekman Patent papers. A record in Cambridge VT indicates that my Joel (with a David Carpenter, possibly brother?) acquired property from Barnard Carpenter in 1809. I need to do more research on site in northern VT and western NY!
I would be grateful for any thoughts and ideas.

Subject: RE: Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project - follow up
Yes, thanks John. I actually had those pages previously. They identify a Barnard Carpenter, born 1760, son of Barnard born 1723 in Swansea MA, son of John born 1691 in Swansea. This was the John who was one of the subjects of Gene Zubrinsky’s research and publications a few years back. So the key for me is to prove that my Joel is indeed the son of Barnard Jr.

Emily Adele Carpenter
In doing a little research on Emily, it turns out that her husband Hector Sharp, froze to death in January 1870 on a business trip to Minnesota from South Dakota where they were living! (Being a native Minnesotan I understand this completely.) The whole family subsequently went west to Montana, Idaho and eastern Washington state.

William H. Carpenter
Does the following pertain to this William?
The Dartmouth College Library bought the Papers of Judge Frederick Vose from
Charles Apfelbaum, Rare Books and Collections, Valley Stream, New York, in
1987. A fine selection of records from early (1825-ca. 1855) Cheshire County,
New Hampshire courts, this collection will provide researchers with a rare
glimpse of the legal and economic problems faced by New Hampshire residents
during the mid-1800s. Although the majority of the suits were brought for
non-payment of debts, there are also cases concerning theft, assault and battery,
breach of promise, divorce, arson, and the settlement of estates.

Bishop Carpenter had 16 children. Their sixteenth child was our great-grandfather James Edward Carpenter who fought in the 5th Illinois Volunteers during the Civil War. (I have James Edward’s discharge papers + much information about his war record.)
Bishop and Mary (Polly) immigrated from New York…they had a farm at the outlet of Schroon Lake in upstate New York …they moved to Carroll County Illinois in the 1850s when James Edward was about 12 or 13. Several of the other grown children and their families immigrated to Illinois with the parents and other siblings.
My grandparents met in South Dakota, married there, lived there for a time and then immigrated to central Wisconsin in 1919.
This local branch of the Carpenter family resided in the Town of Easton in Marathon County since 1919. My mother is Marian Rose Carpenter, daughter of Joseph Carpenter and Gertrude Olga Rose Carpenter.

Bishop Carpenter born 10/28/1781 Stillwater NY died 9/4/1868 Argo Fay, Illinois Carroll Co
buried Upper York Cemetery, York Township, Carroll Co. and Mary (Polly) Weddle born 5/2/1784 Warren Co NY and died 9/28/1864 buried Upper York Cemetery, York Township, Carroll Co. I have photos of their headstones as well. Note: all of Bishop and Polly's children were born in New York. Many immigrated to Illinois with the family migration. A few of the older children remained in New York where they had married and had homes.] Family notes from the siblings of James Edward referred to their parents as their "elderly parents" and indeed they were elderly when they immigrated to Illinois. It appeared the older siblings often functioned in a parental role with the younger siblings. Dates would indicate that Polly was 31 at the birth of her first child and 54 at the birth of her last child, James Edward.
DEATH: 4-9-68 -- This is either 4 Sep 1868 or 9 Apr 1868. IGI has 4 Sep 1868.

CIVIL WAR Death date. Died he die in the military? See below.

Fredrick served in the Civil War. He was ill in a hospital in the south (dysentery, I believe). His older brother, Charles Higley went to bring him home. He arrived home at 10 o’clock at night and died at 7 AM the next morning.
This man is DC Carpenter’s ancestor; he is Cecil Paul Carpenter’s ancestor also. Maria remarried a man named Smith.
D.C. Carpenter, a Methodist Minister from Michigan who was a descendent of Fredrick Walter Carpenter. He gave his brother Cecil Paul Carpenter all of his research. DC had communicated for several years with my grandmother Gertrude Olga Rose Carpenter about the Carpenter family history. Per Sue Kettner

Abigail A. Carpenter
11. Abigail A Carpenter born 3/24/1831 died 4/14/1831 3 weeks old. (There are questions as Fredrick was born 10/15/1831. DC noted questions regarding this child and Martha born in 1833. Cecil and I are unsure of his questions but these dates are strange. We do know that James Edward Carpenter, my ancestor, lied about his age and claimed to be 2 years older than he was when he enlisted in the Illinois Volunteers. Some military records have the incorrect date.
I don’t know if Fredrick also falsified his date of birth or not. I do have photos of
James Edward’s headstone and Fredrick’s headstone. I think the family put the correct dates on the headstones. I will check my photos.)
