http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Ticonderoga
Fort Ticonderoga is a large 18th century fort built at a strategically important narrows in Lake Champlain where a short traverse gives access to the north end of Lake George in the state of New York, USA. The fort controlled both commonly used trade routes between the English-controlled Hudson River Valley and the French-controlled Saint Lawrence River Valley. The name "Ticonderoga" comes from an Iroquois word tekontaró:ken, meaning "it is at the junction of two waterways".[3] Fort Ticonderoga was the site of four battles over the course of 20 years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Ticonderoga_%281777%29
The Battle of Ticonderoga occurred on July 5 and July 6, 1777 was more a battle of maneuver than a direct conflict in the American Revolutionary War. The British Army, led by John Burgoyne, occupied the fort after forcing American General Arthur St. Clair to withdraw the defenders.
...
The guns at Ticonderoga, most remaining supplies, and some men too ill and wounded to move were left to the British.

803. Elihu or Elihue Carpenter

Number 524 in the Carpenter memorial on page 106.
Family on page 199 (# 206)
He was a deacon of the church.  A farmer.

He did not attend school until he was 16 years of age.  He was then a tall
boy, and had to go into a class of small children, which was very humiliating
to him.  He made good progress and soon mastered the common branches and became
a teacher.  His success as a taecher was remarkable-one of the best.  Many of
the liberally educated men of the town owe their success to him.
It was a credit to a student to state that he had obtained his early education
under the tutorship of Elihu Carpenter.
He also taught singing school and as the old lady, Mrs. Perry said in her 92nd
year of her age, "that he taught singing school for nothing and found candles."
He used to sing when about the house and his work.  Someone asked his mother
one day what made him sing so much, when she replied: "To plague the devil."
He sang pious hymns.

He enlisted and served as corporal in the Lexington scare in Nathaniel
Carpenter's No. 607 Company and served eight days.  He enlisted again in
Nathaniel Carpenter's Company, Col. Cary's Regiment at New York and White
Plains for five months and was dismissed on Dec. 1, 1776.
He enlisted for a third time and served as Quartermaster-sergeant in Col.
Hathaway's Regiment on April 21, 1777 and served 24 days in Rhode Island.
He enlisted a fourth time as a Sergeant in Capt. Nathaniel Carpenter's Company,
Col. Whitney's Regiment in the Rhode Island Alarm on May 13, 1777 and served
one month and twenty five days where he marched from Rehoboth to Point Judith.

In the funeral sermon of the Rev. Jacob Ide of Medway,,MA., in
referring to his own conversion I find the following paragraph:

"A great change came over my mind - a delight in the services of
God. To prepare myself to be useful in the world, became now an
object of my most ardent desire. - was greatly encouraged in my
purpose by the district school master, Dea. Elihu Carpenter to
whom I confess myself under greater obligations than to any
other man. The good layman held religious meetings, giving
scripture expositions and exhortations.  I so admired him as to
make him my model of future usefulness. But Dea. Carpenter fired
me with higher ambition and molded me to nobler issues. He urged
upon me a preparation for the ministry.  His words to me were
fuel to the fire already kindling in my heart."2  SOUR S203

Dr. Alva Carpenter was of feeble health from his childhood.  He

806. Nehemiah or Nahemiah Carpenter

Number 575  on page 114 in the Carpenter Memorial.  His family is #220.
A farmer who settled in Foxboro abt 1750.

He was the first settler of what is now Foxboro Village, buliding a house
there about the year 1750.  He was prominent in the formation of the town, and
was town clerk and treasurer, selectman and constable for a number of years.
He was the first deacon of the first Orthodox church formed in town and he gave
land for a cemetery.  He kept a hotel being the half way house between Boston
and Providence.
Nehemiah took an active part in the formation of the town of Foxboro and
was one of the 29 charter members of the first church which was formed in
1779, of which he was chosen one of the deacons in 1780 and served until
his death in 1799.
His second wife Sarah Day Hartshorn, was the widow of Thomas Hartshorn, who
lived in a small house that stood on the site of David Carpenter's greenhouse.
Sarah died 22 Dec. 1810, aged 81 and is buried beside her husband near where
the monument stood in 1898.
!He appears as sergeant on the Lexington Alarm Roll of the Company of Captain
Israel Smith of Stoughton and served 3 days, date not readable.  However this
must have been in March or April 1775 and could be no other than the Nehemiah
Carpenter of Foxboro.  He was then in the 44th year of his age.  He like
others, left his home at the first alarm to obtain the rights of colonists at
the risk of his life.
Nehemiah Carpenter of Stoughtenbam appears on the pay roll of Capt. Pratt's
Company, Col. Gill's Regiment; enlisted March 4, 1776 and discharged March 11,
1776: marched on Roxbury alarm: served eight days: residence given as
Stoughton.
Nehemiah of Foxboro appears as Lieutenant on the pay roll of Capt. Samuel
Fisher's Company of Wrentham, Col. Jonathan Titcomb's Regiment, for services at
Rhode island: enlisted May 3, 1777; served two months and three days; he also
appears among the list of officers of the Massachusetts Militia as First
Lieutenant of Company 7, of the 3d Suffolk Regiment.  This was probably a
company formed in Foxboro.  He also appears among the list of officers of
Massachusetts Militia as Captain in the 3d Suffolk Regiment and no doubt this
was a Foxboro Company.
On page 114, second paragraph describes a old paper as a will, with seal torn
off and his name erased.
