Benjamin Carpenter being much annoyed by the Tories removed to ____. This was
at the time that the Tories of Dutchess county put on such a bold front and
gathered their forces at Washington Hollow. At the time of Benjamin's marriage
to Mary Pugsley, he lived on the land given him by his father, but his house
having been trice robbed by the Tories, he sold and purchased a place in
Stanford, NY called "Carpenter's Hill."
REF: Carpenter Chronicles Vol. 23, 1995, BB TOPP. Page 9 HISTORY OF DUTCHESS
COUNTY NEW YORK, Hon. Morgan Carpenter History.
Benjamin, the youngest son of Daniel, born 11 Jul 1749, resided in Charlotte
precinct upon land inherited from his father, until, because of his loyalty,
his house had been robbed and plundered three times by Torries. He moved in
1778 to land purchased in Charlotte and Washington precincts, now the town of
Sanford. He took the oath of "abjuaration to the King of Great Britian and
allegiance to the United States" in 1784 and died in 1837 at age 88. He left
the home tract to his youngest son, Morgan, having some years previous
purchased a farm near the city for his older sons.

Subject: Re: Your Online Descendants Material - a reply
John,
Upon further examination of Seversmith's corrections of his own work, I see that the following passage contains an error:
You have a "Solomon problem": . . .Hannah, Michael, William, Nehemiah, James, and Benjamin (nos. 436–441)—skip a generation; they are actually the children of that Solomon's son Ens. Solomon and the latter's wife, Elinor. In addition to this last Solomon (b. 1712, d. Goshen 24 June 1791) . . ."
Seversmith originally gave the date of death of Ens. Solomon6 Carpenter (Solomon5, John4, John3, William2 of Rehoboth) as 1722 (2:540). That this is a typo—he had a wife and children—is confirmed in the Supplemental Information section of the same volume, where the author says the following: "Solomon, born in 1712, died 24 June 1791 (not 1722), aged 82 years, and was buried at Phillipsburgh. His will, dated 30 September 1779, was proved 20 March 1783 (Liber A, p. 24 of Wills, filed at Goshen, New York)" (2:1011). Then, in the Supplemental Information section of a subsequent volume, Seversmith says (about the previous correction), "Delete the date of death" (4:2048). Find A Grave, however, lists a Solomon Carpenter as buried in Wallkill Cemetery, Pillipsburgh; an accompanying photograph of the gravestone indicates that he "departed this life June 24th 1794 in the 82nd year of his age" (Solomon Carpenter (1712 - 1794) - Find A Grave Memorial ). He was thus not 82 but 81 and born about 1713. Who, then, is the Solomon Carpenter depicted in the aforementioned probate record, and which of these two men was the son of Solomon5?
The Solomon thought to have been the son of Solomon5, incidentally, was an Ensign at Goshen in 1738, not a Lt. Colonel.
