Number 33 in the Carpenter Memorial. Page 53. Only one marriage listed in that record to Richard Sweet. AF has two marriages listed. Gene Zubrinsky writes: "There's no basis for presenting a second marriage, to William Sweet. This almost certainly represents confusion with her only known husband, Richard Sweet."

29. Josiah Carpenter

NOTE: See father's notes for Gene Zubrinsky's data on this individual.

The last day of the month was 29 Feb 1727 is correct because it was after 1 Jan but before 25 March because while only 1728 was the leap year (Jan to Dec) for the Gregorian calendar, the year (1727) did not change until 25 March for the people at that time using the Julian calendar. Thus making 29 Feb still in 1727 on the last day of the month of February. Thus comparing the old style 29 Feb 1727 to the current calendar as 29 Feb 1728 new style. Josiah died at age 63 years, 22 months and 11 days in his 64th year of life.
Gene Zubrinsky writes the follow for his birth and death; JOSIAH CARPENTER, b. 18 Dec. 1664, d. Rehoboth 28 or 29 Feb. 1727/8 [leap year], in 64th yr.; ...

JOSIAH (1664-1728) & ELIZABETH READ (1669-1739); 24 NOV 1692, 24 MAY 1692; REHOBOTH. PER NEW ENGLAND MARRIAGES PRIOR TO 1700.

MARRIAGE: Gene Zubrinsky indicates that the marriage date given above "24 May 1692" is incorrect and should be "24 Nov 1692."

I am looking for information on an Elizabeth Carpenter born in 1699, Rehoboth, MA to the parents, Josiah and Elizabeth Read Carpenter. Elizabeth Carpenter married Israel Peck in 1727, they moved to Barrington, RI, she died some time prior to 1746. Which is when Israel (widow) married Elizabeth Hunt. Any information on Elizabeth Carpenter and her children would be greatly appreciated. ... Tami Peck

169. Mary Carpenter

Number 135 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 66.
She is not listed in the AF, nor born in Rehoboth, which might mean she was
adopted. No mention of this in the Carpenter Memorial.
There is another Mary Carpenter listed in the CM with the same birth date!
SEE: Number 469 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 99.

30. Nathaniel Carpenter

NOTE: See father's notes for Gene Zubrinsky's data on this individual.

DEATH: Often given as 28 Feb 1727 per the AF. However it is for another. His death is actually unknown but estimated about 1741/1743 since he was reported alive in 1740.Use of "aft 1740" is used.

MARRIAGE: Many records in error have marriage as 13 Oct 1695. As Gene Zubrinsky writes: "Mary Preston, 2nd wife of Nathaniel4: Married 13 10th month [Dec (not Oct)] 1695." Remember the difference in the old calendar verses new?
Example: Per Marriage Records Before 1699, page 54: Nathaniel married Mary Preston, 13 Oct. 1695, Dorchester, MA

Number 36 in the Carpenter Memorial on page 53. His family is listed on
page 67 (Number 22).
He was elected town representative in 1724, 1729, 1733, and 1735, serving the
town as their represenative for four year terms.
He made a will in 1740 or 1741. The will does not appear to be probated, but
is signed and sealed in the regular form. He mentions in his will, his son,
Ezekiel Carpenter, in addiition to what he had given him, "all his rights in
Wrentham, etc." He gives to his son, Ezra real estate, money and other minor
articles herein mentioned: Namely his square barrel gun, great andirons, iron
peal; also his best hat, great coat, three fine shirts, and his great silver
shoe buckles.
He gives to his daughter, Rachel Kent, in addition to what he
had given her, land and money, and various other articles: namely his negro
boy, named Dick; two beds and bedsteads, with furniture belonging to them; one
of the beds he then occupied; the other bed stood in the chamber with calico
curtains and quilt belonging to it; one half the sheets the largest portion of
his late wife's linen and wearing apparal, wool, kettles et cetera and a pair
of horse chains and a cow. For a complete listing see page 53.
He gives to his son, Dan, land and money. He also gives him a right and a half
in the Town of Ashford, CT and appoints him executor.

We also find that he gave to the first church in Rehoboth, a good tanker
(tankard) and another tanker to the church of Attleboro to be purchased out of
his estate.

NAME: Daniel Wheaton Carpenter in one record.

He was chosen town clerk on the death of his father in 1703, and held the
office three years and in 1708 was again chosen and filled it until 1730.
As a townsman he was very popular as is shown by the various offices to which
he was appointed.
He was in the doleful expedition of Phillips against Quebec in 1690, as appears
by a letter to his father, William, written at Weymouth about 27 July 1690.
The letter lists officers and men and a later letter of a descendant describes
the short provisions and hunger.
His tombstone was NOT engraved with the Greyhound Coat of Arms that was granted
to Willaim Carpenter in England in 1663. It was Daniel Charles Carpenter b.
8 Nov 1695 who died 26 Jan 1763 who had it engraved!

To:         CARPENTER-L@rootsweb.com

Having recently been reminded of the ease with which genealogical errors take
on a life of their own, robustly surviving in the face of corrections, I
realized I had never posted the following items online, where they might have
a chance of supplanting the inaccuracies with which they compete.

DANIEL4 CARPENTER, born 8 October 1669, son of William3 Carpenter and his
second wife, Miriam "Saile" (dau. of Edward Sale/Sarle of Weymouth and
Rehoboth), married at Rehoboth, 15 April 1695, BETHIAH3 BLISS. Daniel's
sister MIRIAM4 CARPENTER, born 16 October 1674, married at Rehoboth, 23 June
1691, JONATHAN3 BLISS, Bethiah's brother.

Bethiah and Jonathan Bliss's father is easily and accurately identified as
JONATHAN2 BLISS, son of Thomas1 and Dorothy (Wheatlie) Bliss of Braintree and
Rehoboth. The oft-repeated claim that Jonathan2's wife (i.e., Bethiah and
Jonathan3's mother) was MIRIAM HARMON, however, is false. She was, in fact,
neither a Miriam nor a Harmon; there is no record of a Miriam Harmon in New
England during this period. Jonathan2 Bliss's wife was almost certainly a
daughter of George PUFFER of Braintree, Mass., probably named RACHEL. For a
complete discussion of the factors that led to this misidentification and the
evidence supporting its correction, see NEHGR 151(1997):32-37.

JOHN4 CARPENTER, born 19 October 1652--also a son of William3 Carpenter but
by his first wife, Priscilla Bennett--had married probably at Rehoboth, by 19
December 1677 (birth date of first child), REBECCA2 REDWAY, with whom he had
10 children, 8 recorded at Rehoboth, 2 at Woodstock (no John among them).

Rebecca's father is invariably identified correctly as JAMES1 REDWAY--though
his date of burial (31 March 1684) is often confused with that of his son
James2 (28 Oct. 1676). But sloppy research has caused some accounts
(including that on John R. Carpenter's CD) to misidentify James1's wife
(i.e., Rebecca's mother) as MARY WHIPPLE. The facts are these: Mary Whipple
married at Rehoboth, 14 April 1748, as his second wife, CAPT. JAMES3 REDWAY (
John2, James1) (orig. Rehoboth VR, 2:266); the identity of James1 Redway's
wife is unknown.

Brothers SAMUEL3 and ABIAH3 CARPENTER, sons of William2 and Abigail
(Briant) Carpenter, also married daughters of James1 Redway: Samuel m. 25 May 1660,
SARAH REDWAY, and Abiah m. say 1667, MARY REDWAY. As above, the
identity of the Redway sisters' mother is unknown.

Gene Z.

Bethiah Bliss

Possible 2 Bethiahs? Are they the same person?
The other Bethiah BLISS was born about 1663. No parents listed.
She married Samuel Carpenter.

From Gene Zubrinsky of Ojai, CA
Those with one or more Rehoboth Carpenter ancestors who married a Bliss or Redway may, after reading the material below, discover that they need to correct the information they have for the Bliss and/or Redway mothers-in-law of those Carpenters.
DANIEL4 CARPENTER, born 8 October 1669, son of William3 Carpenter and his second wife, Miriam "Saile" (dau. of Edward Sale/Sarle of Weymouth and Rehoboth), married at Rehoboth, 15 April 1695, BETHIAH3 BLISS. Daniel's sister MIRIAM4 CARPENTER, born 16 October 1674, married at Rehoboth, 23 June 1691, JONATHAN3 BLISS, Bethiah's brother.
Bethiah and Jonathan Bliss's father is easily and accurately identified as JONATHAN2 BLISS, son of Thomas1 and Dorothy (Wheatlie) Bliss of Braintree and Rehoboth. The oft-repeated claim that Jonathan2's wife (i.e., Bethiah and Jonathan3's mother) was MIRIAM HARMON, however, is false. She was, in fact, neither a Miriam nor a Harmon; there is no record of a Miriam Harmon in New England during this period. Jonathan2 Bliss's wife was almost certainly a daughter of George PUFFER of Braintree, Mass., probably named RACHEL. For a complete discussion of the factors that led to this misidentification and the evidence supporting its correction, see NEHGR 151(1997):32-37.

Noah was town clerk for a number of years and a proprietor's clerk and belonged
to the order of Masons.

The will of Noah Carpenter was dated 1 Feb. 1756. He mentions his wife Tabithy
sons Stephen, Noah, Simon and Elisha, grandsons John and Jonas, sons of Isaiah
(Jonas is called and recorded as "Jonah"); daughters Priscilla Brown, Sarah
Talbott, Mary Alverson, Margaret Richardson, and Anna Whitaker. It was probated 6 April 1756.

On 1 Nov. 1734, Noah Carpenter (Sr.) and Caleb Hall of Attleboro, in
concideration of love, good will and affection which we have and do bear
towards the church and congregation of the said Attleboro, called by the name
of Presbyterians, have given granted, conveyed, etc., unto them, their heirs
and assigns foever, that is to be understood for the special use, benefit and
priviledge of that society forever, a certain tract of land containing about
45 rods, where the new meetinghouse now stands, bounded by the said Carpenter
and the said Hall's lands and by the county road, etc..

243. Abigail Carpenter

Number 184 on page 74 of the Carpenter Memorial.
Gene Zubrinsky writes in response to a question:
<< TYPO? Should this read: 1 February 1738 or some other year than 1683 which is before the estimated birth year of her and her husband? Or did Abigail (Newton) Carpenter and later Papillon die on 16 Feb 1776 as later stated in your brief. >>
At the top of p. 74, ABC confuses Abigails and mistakenly gives Joseph5's sister Abigail (no birth date given) as the woman of that name who married Obadiah Papillon, when in fact it was Joseph5's widow. ABC further errs in giving sister Abigail's date of death as 1 Feb. 1783, when it is recorded at Swansea thus: "Abigall the daughter of Joseph Carpenter Jur and of Mary his wife dececed febubuary 1:1683." Clearly she died in infancy and should have been placed first in the birth order (based on the dates available). Joseph5's widow, Abigail (Newton) (Carpenter) Papillon, was buried on 16 Feb. 1776.

Dear John
Bob Carpenter suggested I contact you with my question, as the foremost Carpenter authority. I only just found, after 18 years of research, that Mary Carpenter, (who md in Newbury, MA Jan 22, 1722/23 to Daniel CHASE) may be an ancestral grandmother. At the same time I learned that there was probably in Newbury at this time, Edward Carpenter, (wife's name unkn) who had three children born in Newbury: John b. 1719; Mary b. 1719; Edward b. 1723. It would seem that perhaps this Edward and Mary could be siblings. I find no information to indicate who their parents were--or at least, who Mary's parents were? One contact said that some authorities believe she descends from the William of R.I. group. Newbury vital records don't show a births of the elder Mary or Edward Carpenter there. My Chase genealogy reflects that Mary Carpenter and Daniel Chase had two children, Mary and Judah; apparently the compiler had no idea what became of this child Mary, and simply stated 'probably died young.' I think this Mary is my ancestral grandmother due to overwhelming circumstantial evidence I've recently been able to put together. I think it would cement my belief that she is an ancestral grandmother if I knew more about her parents and without that information, I'm in a 'hold' position on the issue.
Would it be possible for you to give me an opinion on this, if you have a moment? I'd most deeply appreciate the help. If I can pin this down just a bit, I'd very much like to buy the CD for the entire ancestry, but at this point I'm still trying to determine if the Carpenter family is mine. Thank you for any information you might have on this tiny Carpenter branch. Warmest regards, Carol Ashby of Iowa
