 Classification: Query
 In Reply to: Smith Lazelle Carpenter  by:  Paul Sukeforth
Yes, this is the same family! I welcome an exchange of information with you. Here are my own notes compiled primarialy from family records.

PHILIP1 STEVENS was born July 24, 1789 in Dantown, CT, and died December 13, 1876 in Auburn, Cayuga County, NY. He married WELTHA BROOKER SMITH February 1814, daughter of ELIJAH SMITH and MARY. She was born September 17, 1798 in Cairo, Greene County, NY, and died January 25, 1886 in Auburn, Cayuga County, NY.

Notes for PHILIP STEVENS:
The Stevens family moved in next door to William T. Mosher and his family in Poplar Ridge, Ledyard in 1854. Philip was listed as a farmer in the New York State Cenus of 1855. He had twenty acres of improved land valued at $1,600. Twelve of those acres were plowed. This family is not shown adjacent to the Mosher family in the census of 1860.

Burial Fort Hill Cemetery, Auburn, NY: Stevens, Philip d. 12 13 1876 Auburn,N.Y. South Slope Greenwood 30 Auburn,N.Y.

Stephens, Philip NY CAYUGA CO. LEDYARD 312 1860

The New Canaan, CT Historical Society published a family tree of the Stevens name that was compiled by Vera G. Halstead in 1946. This information was found on a messageboard, but has not been followed-up.

Notes for WELTHA BROOKER SMITH:
According to the Stevens Notebook, "Weltha B. married when she was 15 yrs. 5 mo. 5 da.
11 da schooling A very capable woman Could spin, weave cloth and carpet. Do basket work, hair flowers for wreaths, log cabin quilts, knitting, care for a family of 12 children."

Burial Fort Hill Cemetery, Auburn, NY: Stevens Weltha 01 25 1886 Auburn,N.Y. South Slope Greenwood 30 7 Auburn,N.Y.

Children of PHILIP STEVENS and WELTHA SMITH are:
2. i. MARIETTE2 STEVENS, b. January 1815, Tompkins County, NY; d. Unknown.

ii. MARIAM STEVENS, b. May 1817, Greene County, NY; d. April 1843, Aurora, Cayuga County, NY.

Notes for MARIAM STEVENS:
Mariam is buried at Belltown Cemetery according to the Stevens Family Tree. BELLETOWN CEMETERY is located in the Town of Genoa, and is found on http://www.rootsweb.com/~nycayuga/cem/cem72.htm.
However, she does not appear to be listed under that name, with that date of birth or death. She could be the wife of Rev. James Fuller, but the month and day of birth are incorrect. Or perhaps Mary Ann the wife of James McRavy (apparently that stone was not to legible.)

3. iii. PHEBE H. STEVENS, b. December 12, 1819, Delaware County, NY; d. January 01, 1862, Cayuga County, NY.
4. iv. MARGARET A. STEVENS, b. March 1822, Delaware County, NY; d. 1900, Sheldrake ?.

Generation No. 2

2. MARIETTE2 STEVENS (PHILIP1) was born January 1815 in Tompkins County, NY, and died Unknown. She married (2) THOMAS PECKHAM 1856. He was born Unknown, and died Unknown.

Notes for MARIETTE STEVENS:
Marriette was listed in the New York State Census of 1855 as a Milliner. At that time she was living with her father's family in Poplar Ridge, Ledyard. She was 40 years old. Son Charles E. Stevens, 13, was also part of the family.

Child of MARIETTE STEVENS is:
12. i. CHARLES3 STEVENS, b. 1841; d. Unknown.

Child of MARIETTE STEVENS and THOMAS PECKHAM is:
13. ii. JAMES3 PECKHAM, b. April 01, 1857; d. Unknown.

3. PHEBE H.2 STEVENS (PHILIP1) was born December 12, 1819 in Delaware County, NY, and died January 01, 1862 in Cayuga County, NY. She married ISAAC CARPENTER September 11, 1843, son of ISRAEL CARPENTER and PHEBE DOTY. He was born July 08, 1809 in Clinton Hollow, Clinton, Dutchess County, NY, and died April 07, 1898 in Union Springs, Cayuga County, NY.

Notes for PHEBE H. STEVENS:
According to her gravestone inscription, she died at age 42 years, 19 days. The New Canaan Historical Society published a family tree of the Stevens family that was compiled by Vera G. Halstead in 1946. Perhaps that would help tracing this family.

Notes for ISAAC CARPENTER:
An unsigned note penned "Union Springs 4-2-1897" appears in the Family Bible of Mr. & Mrs. H. Mosher, "Children of Isreal Carpenter born near Clinton Hollow. Isaac Carpenter, Wm Carpenter, Mary Ann Carpenter, Geoge Carpenter. Fruits of the first marriage." It goes on to include children of his second marriage.

Clinton Hollow was one of six principal post-offices and villages in Clinton Town, Dutchess County. Agriculture was the chief business of the early settlers. There was plenty of timber, and the country abounded in clear springs and brooks. Although not listed separately today in the New York phone directory, Clinton Hollow Road near Clinton Corners may identify the area. Clinton Town was organized March 13, 1786. It was formed from Charlotte and Rinebeck Precincts. At the time of Isaac's birth, Clinton Town embraced territory much larger than present. Hyde Park and Pleasant Valley having been taken off in 1821.

1860 NY Census Index, Page 979, Carpenter, Isaac NY CAYUGA CO. LEDYARD 305 1860

Isaac's family was enumerated and listed next to the William T. Mosher family in the New York State Census of 1855, and also in the census of 1860. He was a resident of Ledyard for 26 years in 1855, or since about age 20. Isaac's occupation was listed as a farmer. He owned 115 acres of improved land and 30 acres of unimproved land. Although he only plowed 18 of those acres, his farm was valued at $5,800, plus stock and tools. Isaac's first wife was Phebe H. Stevens, daughter of Philip Stevens and Weltha Brooker Smith. His second wife was Francis H. York.

Oak Glen cemetery in the village of Aurora, Ledyard, Cayuga County, NY has the Carpenter family plot with a large obelisk memorial. Inscriptions on the monument are as follows:

1955. Thomas Francis Carpenter

The Hon. Francis Carpenter was the son of Comfort A. Carpenter,
but not by his wife, Widow Elizabeth Smith.  His father educated
him and made him a legal heir by an Act of the Legislature, and
he became a very prominent man in the state of ,RI.

Extracts taken from Reminiscences of the ,RI Bar
written by Abraham Payne, Esq.: "On the 14th day of September,
1840, I entered the office of Gen. Thomas F. Carpenter as a
student at law.  I swept the office and made the fires and did
all the errands now usually expected of an office boy.  On
entering the office, he came in and laying down his green
satchel upon the table, greeted me with much dignity and
courtesy, asking me to be seated.   He commenced the
conversation by explaining to me that a lawyer should make
himself familiar with the Bible, and taking the book, he read
some passages in confirmation of his advice.  He said that it
was his daily habit to read a chapter in the original Greek in
his house every morning.  He then proceeded to impress upon me
the importance of treating everything that should pass in the
office as strictly confidential, remarking that in his safe
there were wills and conveyances, which,  if known, would
startle the community.    He was of middle height and had a very
large head.   In his intercourse with clients, his students and
brethren of the bar, he was always courteous,  and when
appearing before the courts he was a model of dignity and
deference to the tribunal.

While I was in his office, he rarely looked into a law book and
yet he was in one sense the best lawyer that I have ever known.
In his early life he must have been a careful student of the
common law.      He attained a competent acquaintance with
equity jurisprudence the practice of which was then recent in
the court of ,RI.  He never gave any bad advice.   No
person got into a foolish lawsuit who consulted General
Carpenter.  It was his custom to say to a client who was anxious
to get his grievances into court, `No doubt but that you have a
perfectly good case, but there are some technical difficulties
in your way, and I think it is for your interest to make a
settlement.'  In this way he seldom lost a cause for which he
appeared in court, and the reputation of success largely
increased the number of his clients.

General Carpenter was a Democrat, and was several times a
candidate for governor and member of Congress.     The Whigs
being at the time the strongest party he was consequently
defeated,  but not on the ground of honesty and ability to fill
the offices acceptably.

His charges were always moderate, and to persons unable to pay
even those charges, his services were frequently and cheerfully
rendered.  When he came to an argument, his manner of speaking
was formal and precise.  He indulged in neither wit nor humor
and never made any exhibition of rhetoric; but he knew what to
say to a ,RI jury and a ,RI court.

He stood well as a common lawyer and excelled in criminal cases.

Mr. Carpenter always spoke in the highest terms of the Carpenter
family; he was much interested in the genealogical history and
rendered assistance and encouragement to the compiler.2  SOUR S203
