On 3 Nov 2002 Kathy wrote: " I pulled out my Banks District Cemetery Readings (which I should have done in the first place) and there are two Mary Martin's one a child the other I am guessing an adult buried next to Levi J Smith, who would be her brother, with her parents and sister buried in same area of Rock Cave Cemetery. It makes sense that this would be her. Now question is who is Mary Martin child buried next to her?? I think John T's reference to El Dorado might be where F H is buried." Thus, it appears Mary may have died in Upshur County.

He has a daughter named Pridence C. in 1850 census and called Catharine in 1860. In 1880 Census he has a wife named Nancy w/ stepchildren and Nuse. Almedy died after 1860 apparently. They had a son named Jacob W. listed as 2/12 in 1850/60 census. There doesn't appear to be any room in the family of a displaced child as the birth dates are two years apart but there is a larger gap between Catharine (Prudence age 10) and the next Nancy E. -7 There is one possiblilty that Wesley could be related to his family as a twin...In 1870, the family lives with a ELizabeth FREELAND/THOLAND?? can't read handwriting.

MILITARY: Uriah served in Marion County, WV 18th Militia, probably during the Civil War. Information from Robert M. Hershman via e-mail received 17 Apr 1998.
More notes from Larry Carpenter:
3) Uriah: Again, I only have family records that he was a child of Ashman/Emily; he was born in 8 Jan 1821 and died in 21 Mar 1911 ... he shows up in several Federal Census, i.e., 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900, and 1910 Federal Census; his age for each was 28, 35, 45, 55, 76, and 87 which would translate into birth years of 1822, 1825, 1825, 1825, 1824, and 1823 ... his grave marker lists his birth as 7 Jan 1821 and his death as 21 Mar 1911 ... HOWEVER, similar to Lovina there are not a lot of official records; all I have is his death registration and it does not make any mention that he was the child of Ashman and Emily (Emelia) ... I kept him listed as a child, but it is with some degree of uncertainty because of the birth years and Ashman/Emily's year of marriage.
5) Overall Observation: from my notes, I questioned the two individuals as they were born prior to the marriage AND 6-8 years prior to any of their reported siblings ... the space in years for the remainder of the family is 1-4 years.
I had a note (theory) that Ashman & Emily probably did not wait 5 years to have their first child; although possible it just seems to me that getting married in 1822 and not having your first child (Catherine Louisa) until 1827 seems odd ... my theory was that Lovina was probably born soon after the marriage in, e.g.,1822, and that Uriah was probably born a couple of years later, i.e., around 1824/25; this would have nicely placed them in the spacing with the other children; HOWEVER, I never have found any official records to support my theory.

See IV, 44a. FHL Film 464957, Marion County Marriages 1842-1865 appeared to read "Abraham and Emily Carpenter." The remaining information was the same. See I, 111.
FIRST SPOUSE: Ancestral File, 1993 Edition.

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES-MILITARY-DEATH: On April 29, 2002 descendant Gary Baker, garyb@strategic.com, sent a Carpenter Family History written in 1984 by an unknown author, possibly Carl Carpenter: "On April 9, 1865 in Grafton, West Virginia, David Carpenter was drafted into Company E of the Seventh Regiment of the West Virginia Infantry volunteers. David was 29 years old, had fair complexion, dark hair, blue eyes and was a stout man for his 130 pound frame. A month later the company was repositioned to Washington, D. C. In June following the surrender of the South by General Robert E. Lee, the company participated in a victory march through Virginia which started in Burkeville Junction and passed through Richmond en route to Munson Hill. The march was a long, hard, grueling activity that was injurious to the health of many men. David Carpenter was completely disabled upon arriving at Munson Hill. David was hospitalized for a severe case of varicose veins in his right leg and chronic dysentery. Following brief medical care, David was discharged on July 1, 1865 from the Army. The ailments incurred during the march handicapped David Carpenter throughout the rest of his life. The eight dollar per month pension was little compensation for the ailments which prevented David from living a productive life. On September 28, 1898 David died of the non-combat injuries suffered during his eighty-two days of duty in the Army. At the time of his death, David was survived by his second wife Martha J. (Keener) and their children, Pathina, David, George, John, Sarah, Emma, Louis, James and Elemore. David's first wife, Pathenia (Phillips), died in 1864 and three of their four children were alive at the time of David's death. They were Jacob, Amos and Rebecca. One son, Albert,
was killed one year earlier in a train accident."
MILITARY: David served in the Civil War in the Union Army, Company E. Information from Robert Hershman via GEDCOM/e-mail, 17 Apr 1998. Patty Carpenter Helms wrote via e-mail on June 3, 1998 that "David Carpenter" was the only name listed on his dischage papers in 1865 from the Civil War. At that time he was 29 years old and reported he was born in Richland County, Ohio. (See above notes re: "David Ashman Carpenter."
