Benjamin Carpenter
BENJAMIN CARPENTER -- Benjamin, son of Ensign Solomon Carpenter, was born at
Goshen April 15, 1755. He wed Margaret Decker, daughter of Major Decker. They
lived at Minisink (later Deer Park), N.Y. at a place sometimes called
Carpenter's Point. Benjamin served in the Revolution and, according to the
History of Orange County, made a bold escape when Fort Montgomery was taken by
the British. He died in 1821.

in Orange County, NY.

An Extraordinary Race
On one occasion James D. Swartwout who formerly owned the Laux farm in the Neversink Valley; David Swartwout who owned the farm which is now occupied by the deserted oil station on the Huguenot road and Cornelius Westfall who was the owner of the farm directly across the Delaware over in Pike County from Mr. Wolverton's West Main Street this city had gone down to Easton in the same crew. Westfall being the steersman.
The Messrs. Swartwout who owned the raft made a quick sale and the next morning about 5 o=clock, at the finish of breakfast, Mr. James Swartwout addressing Mr. Westfall said, "Duck Legs, we're going home and you may go with us if you will agree that the last man at Uncle Ben Carpenter's will treat!" Uncle Ben Carpenter, great, great grandfather of Dr. C. N. Skinner, on his grandmother's side, had the hotel and ferry at Carpenter's Point, nearly 60 miles away. They had lunches prepared and the 60 miles race was on. James Swartwout was a large man, one of the strongest men in the valley and had a seven leagues stride.

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.

Subject: Another whole John Carpenter line!
Dear John:
For ages I have been trying to sort out the William B. Carpenter line and the Samuel B. Carpenter line (mostly to make sure that it didn't fit into my direct line as I have Sam's and Williams in about the same area).
(I THINK this is Union Mills Cem, Broadalbin NY but my notes are not clear as I was doing several cemeteries at once.)
William B. goes back to a John Carpenter born 1790 (don't know parentage of this John, do you???).
John Carpenter (b. 1790) died 5/20/1862 age 72 married to an Abigail born 1808 died Aug 9, 1857 age 47
dau. Anna Maria b. 1820 died Oct 21, 1849 in her 20th yr.
dau. Helena Mary b. 1832 died Jan 15, 1854 in her 22nd yr.
son William B. Carpenter b. 1834. He died in Battle of Wilderness near Spottsylvania Courthouse May 11, 1864. He was enlisted in the 77th Regiment NY Vol. Company E.
His wife was Angeline (?) b. 1850 died Feb. 16, 1890 age 40.
So at least now I know that William B. goes back to this John. Where do we connect him??

In Reply to: Re: ATTNY WILLIAM C. CARPENTER b. 1803 m. RUTH MABEE EASTPORT TO NY CITY by John R. Carpenter of 8138
John, Thank you very much for your reply and the great piece of information you shared so kindly! I had no idea Sea Cliff was home to some Carpenter Loyalists but this could account for why William C. Carpenter went to Queens Co while his other siblings settled in Eastport.
Here is why I think your clue is so valuable:
William C. Carpenter's parents are Anthony W. Carpenter 1773-1827 and Mary ____? 1770-1827. Both died in Eastport Maine.
I think this Anthony W. who I found in Newmarket, Rockingham County, NH in 1790 is a descendant of Solomon Carpenter of Goshen NY which I found on your Carpenter CD!
Then Anthony W. Carpenter is found on a land petition in Charlotte County NB in 1807. (I have been waiting for this record from NB since December)
Anthony W. Carpenter's father had a sister, Elizabeth who married a Tory, Nathaniel Rogers and went to New Brunswick where it is possible that Anthony W. Carpenter went with this family or on his own.
I am very grateful for your help which has always been so generous and for the CARPENTER CD!

* Rev. James Finn was born, as is believed, at Goshen, New York, shortly previous to the
middle of the last century. And at an early age was married to Miss. Hannah Carr. Perhaps
of his native place. He moved into New Jersey and was ordained, April 23, 1783, as
pastor of the Baptist church of Wantage, in that State, where he remained for some two
years and then removed to Pittston, Pennsylvania. He became the first pastor of the
Baptist church in that place, a relation he sustained during some six or seven years. He
is next found living at Thornbottom on the Tunkhannock, where he died and his remains now
repose. His widow married Captain Daniel Gore, of “Jacob’s Plains” in the Wyoming
Valley. She survived her second husband and finally died at the house of her son,
William Finn, in Clifford, Susquehanna county, March 16, 1835, aged 85 years and 11
months. The descendants of Mr. Finn and his wife are quite numerous in this region, many
of whom are following in the steps of their venerable ancestors.
