Daniel Pettibone Carpenter
E-MAIL: Wed, 10 May 2000 From: "Bill Newsom"
HI John,
I've fixed the standardizes part of the tree, I hope it saves you a few
minutes. I wish I could provide more. I'm in E-mail contact with two other
branches of Daniels family. ONe in Moorhead, MN and one in Bremerton, WA.
I'm still gatering information on Daniel and Sophie. I wish I had a few
stories about them. all I can tell you is they came to Minn with a lot of
others. The promise was farm for land. I'm looking for more on this. It
seems that in the mid 1800. Minnesota attracked familys with the promise. If
they work the land for X amount of time there owned the land. Daniel and his
family left NY for Wisc in 1853\54, then settled in Geneva, Freeborn Co., MN
in 1859/60, some wear between 1860 and 1880 they traveled and settled in
Stony Lawrence, Grant Co., MN and then on two Fergus Falls, Ottertail Co.,
MN. This is were I've found most of the family. They were farmers.
My information is from Census, Newspapers (OBITS), Cemetery records and
Birth and Death Certificates.
I hope this helps, I can possible provide more as I get deeper into the
resource. thanks for you help and again let me know if this is not what you
are looking for. Bill.
