Carpenter, 1901.
A sea Captain.  Buried in the Cemetery of Trinity Church.

DEATH:1 April 1790 at age 60 per above record.
SEE: THE EPISTLE, July 1983, Providence City, Rhode Island, death records had
a Captain James Carpenter, Mariner, died in West Indies, Sept. 4, 1774.  Is this a different one?

Page 80: "RAN away from the subscriber, a Negro man slave, named WILL, alias  WILL JOHNSTON, a large, stout fellow, of a yellow complexion, has a remarkable flesh mole upon his left cheek, a large scar upon one of his
hands, between his thumb and fore-finger, and a scar of a bum on one thigh, & has lately arrived from whaling, with Capt. Lemuel Jenkins: Whoever will take up said Negro, and secure him in any of his Majesty s jails, or deliver him
to the subscriber, in Newport, shall have SIX DOLLARS reward, and all necessary charges, paid by  JAMES CARPENTER.  N.B. Said Negro professes something of the cooper s trade; and can play upon a violin. Newport Mercury May 22, 1775"

Avis Tillinghast

She died in Newport per the GAZETTE of Oct. 7, 1774 in her 82nd year.
She was probably a great grand daughter of Rev. Pardon Tillinghast.
In 1794 Anne Mott, daughter of James and Mary (Underhill) Mott, visited the
"Widow Carpenter" and her two daughters.  Later Anne Mott refers to her as
"Aunt Carpenter."  (Adam and Anne Mott Genealogy)

3284. Pardon Carpenter

Number 160a in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.

3285. Mary Carpenter

Number 161 in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.

3286. Martha Carpenter

Number 161a in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.

3287. Avis Carpenter

Number 163 in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.

3289. Francis W. Carpenter

Number 162a in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.

1253. Thomas Carpenter Jr.

Number 60 in the book "The Carpenter Family in America" by Daniel H.
Carpenter, 1901.
Thomas Carpenter, this Thomas's son is not listed in the above record.  Does he
belong in another family?  Maybe his son Joseph's son?

He was a Patriot and a private in a New York unit, D.A.R. Patriot Index, a
Farmer and Friends Member at Rye, New York.
It is probable he married twice.  See wife's notes.

In 1739, Thomas Carpenter bought several tracts of land in the lower part of
"Harrison's Purchase," in Westchester County, in which deeds he lists himself
as being "Thomas, Jr., "late of the i'sl of Nassau, now of Rye."
In 1743 (12,8,1743) charges were made against him by the Meeting "for some
unbecoming expressions."  He denied them and several months later they were
dismissed as "not proven." (Purchase Minutes)

WILL: Will dated 5 Oct. 1775 and proven 24 Aug. 1784.

BIRTH:
Thomas was born on 25 6th month [August (not June)] 1710 (family record in Frost, Haviland Genealogy [1914], 186). The D. H. Carpenter volume consistently expresses pre-1752 Quaker records’ numbered months as named ones as though the first month of the year were January rather than March. NOTE: Chances are you’ve got a lot of dates taken from that genealogy that are two months off.

Carpenter, 1901.

He died of small pox in New York City. He was an Innholder of Outward,
New York City of the "Bulls Head Taveren" and a farmer.
Picture 1783 in "Valentine's Manuel."
NOTE: Ellwood Valentine was related to this Carpenter family and maintained
records on this family.  Daniel H. Carpenter used these records as a source.
I assume that Ellwood was related to Captain Jacob Valentine due to a reference
in the above book regarding a Bible. (see page 126)
(The Inn was in Manhattan?)

On Nov. 26, 1753, Stephen Carpenter posted bond with Petter Ferris of East
Chester, West Chester county, NY.

16, 1755, with John VanCortlandt posting bond.

His farm was nearly ruined during the Revolutionary War, as it was so situated
as to be alternately occupied by both armies.
As a Friend, he could take no active part in the fighting.  At the Battle of
White Plains, a skirmish took place in a rye field near his house, the wounded
being cared for there.  He and possibly his family helping the wounded.
