A Typical Wedding
This was a typical wedding of those days full and jollity for several days and then the young couple settled down to the serious business of life. At the weddings the jokes at times were practical as in the case of the wedding of John D. Carpenter, great grandfather of Dr. C. N. Skinner. Mr. Carpenter was comparatively short in statute but what he lacked in height was made up in physical vigor and grit and when he and the bride took their places before the minister for the wedding ceremony a guest placed a sheet of paper on the floor for the groom to stand on, to equalize the height of the pair, the bride by -the-way, being about half a head taller. The wag made a serious error for the groom insisted on stopping the ceremony until he walloped the man who had insulted him. Friends intervened, the joker apologized and a half hour later the wedding went on.
These people, whose immediate ancestors had suffered so terribly from the Indian raids in the valley and many had fought in the war of the Revolution, were of the "Early to bed and early to rise etc." class and this wise saying of Poor Richard proved true with them for they were physically strong and active, wealthy considering their wants, and their business judgment was unexcelled.
They were unanimous in opinion for the proprieties and ceremonials. The minister was a most revered gentleman and at his pastoral visits all the members of the household gathered to give grave but most courteous greeting to the dominie, to hear a portion of the Scriptures read and the prayer invoking God's blessing on that household. A part of the ceremony, not to be overlooked was the offering of cake and wine or whiskey to the Dominie. I am speaking now of the days of 80 to 100 years ago.

REPLY:
Hello Robin,
The John Carpenter appears to be RIN 21082 in the CE CD 2001. He was born 6 Feb 1796 in Minisink, Orange, NY.
His son Levi Carpenter-21099 is listed in the 1870 Census for Lumberland, Sullvan, NY. His father is Benjamin Carpenter-12760 and is number 309 in the Carpenter Memorial. Page 84. His family is on page 156 (#134). His grandfather is Col. Solomon Carpenter-4738 who is Number 75 in the Carpenter Memorial on Page 61.
The above John Carpenter-21082 had a brother named James b. 6 April 1805 in Minisink. He would have been 11 in 1816.
The above John Carpenter-21082 had an Uncle James Carpenter-12759 b. 1752 in Goshen, Orange, NY d. April 1817.
(NOTE: This would match with, "James was also assessed in 1814, but not in 1818."
James Carpenter-12759 had a son named James Carpenter-21074 b. 1788 in Goshen, Orange, NY but nothing more is known about him.
I found only 1 of Col. Solomon Carpenter's descendants named Joesph that even came close to being alive at the right time. This is Joseph S. Carpenter-23416 b. 19 May 1815 in Amity, Orange, NY who was son of Solomon Carpenter-23412 b. 24 March 1768.
OTHER POSSIBILES Joseph Carpenters ...
I have a Joseph Carpenter-26996 b. abt 1776 in Newburgh, Orange, NY who is Number 331 in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H. Carpenter, 1901.No family listed. Probably settled in Palmyra, NY.
I have a Joseph Carpenter-27042 b. abt 1765 in Newburgh, Orange, NY who is Number 333 in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H. Carpenter, 1901. No family listed. He died in New York City, unmarried.
I have a Joseph Carpenter-49408 b. 15 Dec 1790 in Goshen, Orange, NY. E-MAIL: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 From: "Marcia Buffett" To: "John R. Carpenter" CC: "Ken Warkentine"
Dear John and Ken:
Do either of you have anything on a Joseph C. Carpenter of Northville? He had a daughter Libbie who was married on March 31, 1880 to Harmon Fisher a barber in Northville.Thanks, Marcia
NOTE: This Joseph had a sister named Rebecca whose first husband died in Northville. Was the Joseph C. above a descendant of this Joseph?
I have a Joseph Carpenter-88893 b. 30 Sep 1783 in Chester, Orange, NY d. 21 May 1829 in Goshen, Orange, NY. He was the son of Jesse Carpenter-2688 who was Number 340 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 88.
I hope this helps.

Just so everyone knows, I spoke today with the Historian of the New Utrecht Reformed Church and he said those children buried in their cemetery were not of John and Mary Carpenter. They belonged to John and Margaret Carpenter. This appears not to apply to our family. Someone along the line took the abbreviation for Margaret as meaning Mary.

Noah Smith Carpenter
Number 2335 in the Carpenter Memorial. Family is Number 712 in CM.
He was a relative of Samuel, probably of Ridgebury, NY and Benjamin of
Brookfield, NY and Noah the lame man.
SEE: Carpenter Chronicles, Vol. 3, 1990 by Bette Butcher Topp.
She cites: Ancestry and Descendants of Col. Soloman Carpenter, printed by
Rosemary Bachelor of Machias, ME.
Noah was a church member for over 60 years and a veteran of the War of 1812.
He served at Brooklyn Heights, New York City.
SEE: The Descendants of Col. Soloman Carpenter Book.
Noah was born in Orange Co., N.Y. Jan. 14, 1782 and
died near Middletown, N.Y. July 19, 1864; a profess
ional gardener, he married Mary L. Millspaugh of Mont
gomery, N.Y. He was also kin to Samuel Carpenter of
Ridgebury, N.Y., Benjamin Carpenter of Brookfield (or
Slate Hill), N.Y., and to Noah, the lame man, a post
rider and mail carrier who lived at the two-mile stone
on LaGrange Road and carried mail from Goshen to
Bloomingburgh, N.Y., according to the History of
Orange Co. Noah Smith Carpenter lived in Minisink,
N.Y., 1800-1845, in Paterson, N.J., 1845 -1855, then as
a widower returned to Orange County and owned a farm
and garden field house near Middletown.
On July 20, 1814, Noah Smith Carpenter answered the third call for
volunteers in the War of 1812. He enlisted as a private at Minisink Aug. 15,
1814 in Capt. Benjamin Dunning's Co. of Col. Berrian's regiment. They went
to Newburgh, then by sloop down the Hudson River to Haarlem and Brooklyn
Heights to guard New York City against the British. Noah was discharged Dec.
1, 1814. His service is documented in a land bounty claim on file in the
National Archives.
Records of the First Presbyterian Church of Ridgebury,
N.Y. show he and his wife Mary joined the church in
1809. His obituary, which appeared in the Aug. 10, 1864
edition of The Whig, an Orange Co., N.Y. newspaper,
said he had been active in church activities more than
60 years, noted he was "beloved by all who knew him for
all those amiable qualities which tend to constitute
the gentleman and the Christian," and paid tribute to
his long life with a poem in his honor.
PAGE 62.
NOTE: The Noah Henry Carpenter baptized at the First Presbyterian Church in
Ridgebury, N.Y. on July 5, 1845 was probably a grandson of Noah Smith
Carpenter. By whom is the question!

Wilkins Carpenter….. this was the last of our line to stay in the New York area. He died fairly young and his widow (Mellisant Watkins) remarried a Nathaniel Lockwood – they moved to Wisconsin (Concord, Jefferson, WI). Mellisant had three children with Wilkins before his death; Pheobe (married and stayed in New York), Charles Carr (settled in Pepin, Pepin CO., WI), and Verdine E (who also went to WI, but later died at Lake Providence, Louisiana during the Civil War).
...
Mellisant Watkins
After the death of Wilkins Carpenter, his wife Mellisant remarried Nathaniel Lockwood.
CENSUS: 1830 US Census
Mellisant and Wilkins were still living in New York for the 1830 Census of Mammakating, Sullivan,
NewYork. While the census does not give individual ages, I think it's safe to assume Wilkins,
Mellisant, Phebe, Charles Carr, and baby Verdine were present in this household.
CENSUS: 1840 US Census
By the 1840 census, she is in the household of Nathaniel Lockwood, still in Mammakating, Sullivan, New York.
Her and Wilkins children are present in this household along with a male child "under 5" - which
leads us to believe this would be Mellisant and Nathaniel's first child William, however, William is
reported to have died in 1839, so I believe his "death date" may be wrong, and he died after the
1840 census.
CENSUS: 1850 US Census
By 1850, they are in Wisconsin (Concord, Jefferson Co., WI). Nathaniel is a farmer
(age 38), Mellisant (age 47), Submit (age 12), Samuel (age 10), George (age 8), and Verdine
Carpenter (age 19) all listing their birthplace as New York. With George's age of 8, they couldn't
have left New York any sooner than 1842.
CENSUS: 1860 US Census
By 1860 they are still in Concord, Nathaniel is 48,
Mellisant is 56, Samuel is 20, and George is 17 - Verdine has moved out by this time.
CENSUS: 1870 US Census
The 1870 Sullivan, Jefferson Co., WI US Federal Census Mortality Schedule (1850-1885) shows
that Mellisant died in December of 1870.
9983.
Phebe Ann Carpenter
Notes for Phebe Anne Carpenter:
See George S Lockwood's (Phebe's half-brother) letter to Charles Carr Carpenter in
regards to Phebe's death, he was present at the time at her request.
9984.
Verdine E. Carpenter
Civil War Soldier - died of disease.
Notes for Verdine E. Carpenter:
According to the Roster Wisconsin Volunteers, "G" Company 16th Infantry (Civil
War 1861-1865) Verdine died on February 23, 1863 from "disease".
This is further supported by a letter from J. Alcott to Charles Carr Carpenter where
he informs him of his brother's death. It is dated February 23, 1863.
Please see letter for more details.
From Elizabeth (Carpenter) Egger's book.... "Verdine died while in service of his
country in the Civil War. Here are a few lines received by his brother Charles C from
Verdine's commanding officer at the time of his death. "He was beloved by all his
brother soldiers that knew him. He done his part as soldier well and without a
murmur. His disease was described by his doctor as the Bloody Flux"....."

Elias Carpenter
Number 2352 in the Carpenter Memorial. Page 289
His family is on page 475 (#713).
Elias enlisted in the Revolutionary army from Stratford, VT in Jan 1781, in Captain Well's Company, Col. Samuel B. Webbs' regiment of CT. He served until 4 Jan 1784 and received a pension (App# 21683) from 9 April 1818.
He was the first man to enter Yorktown at the surrender of Cornwallis.
He was a most loyal Americanuntil his death, telling with great earnestness reminiscences of the war.
Although he was a pious man and never profane, he invaribly spoke of the "tories" as "Damned Tories" so much that one of his grandchildren supposed that "damnedtories" was one word.
The following obituary notice is copied from an old newspaper:
"Died in Stratford, Feb. 16, 1851, Mr. Elias Carpenter, one of the few
surviving Revolutionary Soldiers, aged 90. Mr. Carpenter enlisted in the
service of his country under Washington, when 17 years old, and was at the
evacuation of NY and the taking of Lord Cornwallis which decided the
independence of our country. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal
church."
