Mrs. Day's house in Seekonk, stands on or very near
where William Carpenter's (No. 18 in the CM)house stood. The cellar of the
house was pointed out to Amos B. Carpenter in 1844 or 1845 by Wooster
Carpenter, Esq., from which the compiler (Amos) took a brick which probably
came out of William Carpenter's (No. 18) chimmey. The cellar hole, as it was
seen then, showed plainly that a house had stood there.
Residence: Sanford, ME. But he died in Seekonk.

Subject: information about Solon Carpenter?

Dear Mr. Carpenter:
I seek information about Solon Carpenter (1829-1923) of Seekonk, Masaachusetts. I have the reference from Amos Carpenter _A Geneological History_ (1898). Can you point me to any more recent work that includes this branch?

Kind thanks for sending this information about the Solon Carpenter who built my house about 1875. From the land evidence records and the probate records at the Bristol County Courthouse in Taunton, Mass., I can add the
following:
Bristol County Land Evidence vol. 735 page 396:
A real estate transaction of July 7, 1922 reveals that Solon Carpenter owns the home place with his wife Carroline F. S. Carpenter. This identifies the name of his second wife.
Bristol County Probate Court Will Book docket file 50513:
Probate documents dated June 22, 1923, name Davis Carpenter of Brown, New York, as the executor of his late father's estate. The identifies the month and an approximate day of death for Solomon (he died at age 93) and locates Davis Carpenter as living in New York at the time of his father's death.At his father's death Davis Carpetner inherits all of his father's property outright while Caroline Carpenter is given life estate. This reveals that Caroline outlived Solon.
Bristol County Land Evidence vol. 753 page 122:
On September 17, 1924, Davis Carpenter of Bronx, New York, sells the Solon Carpenter farm outside the family. This concludes the ownership of land in Seekonk by that branch of the family.
When I find their gravestones I'll send along photographs.
Yours sincerely, Rob EmlenCENSUS: 1880 United States Census
