Zayde Eliza Carpenter daughter of Daniel and Zayde Carpenter Born Thursday 11 May 1820 Died Feb 27th 1891 Note from the bible's current owner: This is one of three family bibles I received after my father's sister, Amanda Frances Haviland McCaw, died. She had been living in her father's house in Millville, NJ and he (Virgil Haviland) had apparently inherited all of them from his father, Girard P. Haviland. Daniel Carpenter is my 3 great grandfather. According to the History of Dutchess Co by J. H. Smith, p 442 and the Commemorative Biographical Record, p 21 his grandfather, Daniel Carpenter, for whom he apparently was named, came to Dutchess Co. from Long Island in 1752. He and his wife, Sarah Hall, lived in Crum Elbow, Hyde Park until his death in 1777. They had 6 children, one of whom, Benjamin, b. 11 July 1749, d. 17 Jan 1837, was the father of the owner of this bible. Benjamin lived in Crum Elbow on land given him by his father. He later purchased land in Stanford, where he died in 1837. He was a Patriot and was persecuted by the Tories for raising a company for the Colonial army. His home was robbed 3 times and on other occasions he was saved by his "immense greyhound". He married, 9 September 1773, Mary Pugsley, daughter of Samuel Pugsley of Westchester. They had 8 children. Their son, Daniel, owner of this family bible, resided in Amenia. He and his wife, Zayde PerLee Carpenter are buried in the Smithfield Burying Ground. Their son, Benjamin, and Tamma E. Huntting, had a daughter, Amanda Carpenter. Amanda married my great grandfather, Girard P. Haviland. See Girard P. Haviland family bible.   Ann Haviland Amadori

1635. Morgan Carpenter Judge

Number 981 on page 160 in the CARPENTER MEMORIAL.
Family on page 282 and 283 (# 339)  More info in book.
Ref:  Carpenter Chronicles, Vol. 23, 1995, page 9 BB Topp.  information taken
from The History of Dutchess County New York.
Morgan Carpenter was appointed by Governor Seward in 1841 "one of the County
Judges for Duchess Co." served one term of 4 years and declined a
re-appointment.  In 1852 he removed from Stanford (note there is a difference
in spelling of Stanford, Sanford for an earlier time?) where  he  had  lived
thus far, to the city of Poughkeepsie, In which he resided until his death.  As
a large landed proprietor he was energetic and enterprising in business
affairs.   His sterling integrity and high regard for principle  always
commanded respect.  His unusually sound judgment made him a most trusted
counselor, while a tender and sympathetic heart rendered him a kind friend a
revered parent.  A firm believer in the truths of revelation he exemplified
it's precepts in the uprightness of his life, and was ever a reverent attendant
upon the worship of the church and a Liberal contributor to it's support.
Thoroughly devoted to his country, in all questions of a public nature he took
a warm interest and on all such questions, whether pertaining to City, County,
State  or  Nation,  he  was always found advocating an honest and liberal
policy.  While as a member of the Whig and Republican parties, he was earnest
in the advocacy of political positions and on one or two occasions declined
nominations tendered him for important offices.  His ambition was not to hold
office, but to do his duty to  his
country and neighborhood to the best of his ability, and so through a long life
he acquired and retained the respect and esteem of all who knew him.
