John,
I'm finishing up an article for the NEHG REGISTER that rectifies widely
accepted misidentifications of three John Carpenters, all descendants of
William of Rehoboth and born in the second half of the seventeenth century.
In the course of supporting my identification of the the wives of John5
Carpenter of Swansea (Benjamin4, Joseph3, William2-1), I mention in a
footnote that "in or near Swansea, almost fifteen years separated the birth
of John5 (Benjamin4) and that of the same-named person nearest his age (John
Carpenter, b. Rehoboth, 7 Feb. 1705, son of William Jr. and Elizabeth
[Robinson] Carpenter, and perhaps he who d. Medway, Mass., 17 Oct. 1776, in
his 72d yr.) (Rehoboth VR, 1:48, 61; VITAL RECORDS OF MEDFIELD,
MASSACHUSETTS, TO THE YEAR 1850 [Boston, 1905], 296)." In that the latter
John Carpenter is a peripheral figure in the article, I had no need (and made
no effort) to resolve the issue of whether he and the Medway man were one and
the same.
As you've probably noticed, the names of three of Medway John's
children--Amos, Jesse, and Patience--are also those of some of Rehoboth
John's Carpenter cousins. Although Medway John's daughter Elizabeth's name
is the same as Rehoboth John's mother, it's too common to draw any
conclusions. Have you checked Bristol Co. land records to see if Rehoboth
John executed a grantor deed indicating a place of residence other than
Attleborough (his father died there in 1718/9) or vicinity? If Medway John
had previously owned land at Holliston, perhaps the Middlesex Co. land record
of his initial purchase there gives his previous place of residence. If
you've already investigated these possibilities, please let me know. If you
haven't but plan to, please let me know what you learn.
Thanks.
Gene Z.
<< I have come across a John Carpenter who lived at Holliston, Mass., in
1730, at which time he married Margaret Leland of Sherborne. They ended up
in nearby Medway, where he died in 1776, supposedly aged 71. Does anyone know
where he was born and who his parents were? I note that there was a John
Carpenter born at Rehoboth in 1705, but I have no way of knowing whether
that's the same John.

Hi Carpenter Listers,
Let me introduce myself.My name is Barb Chase Thompson and I have Carpenters in Rochester, NY who I believe relate back to William Carpenter b. 1605, Amesbury, England. My gr. grandmother was Minerva (Amelia) Carpenter,d/oStephen,
s/o David Carpenter and Rachel Green,
s/o Andrew Carpenter and Mercy Reynolds,
s/o Stephen and Amy Field,
s/o Thomas b. 1687,
s/o Joseph b. 1665,
s/o Joseph Sr. who m. his 2nd cousin Hannah Carpenter, dt. of Wm. & Abigail of Rehobeth,
s/o Wm. b. 1605,
s/o Richard b. 1568, and more. I have some written history too. Stephen Carpenter's house is still standing, was the 1st mill in the area, and is now an historic site. Trying to give a quick overview here.
I have found some of this info on the LDS site but want to verify that it is correct.
Any help you could give me or guidance as to whom I might contact for information would certainly be very much appreciated.
Am happy to share information with others.
Thanks very much....
PS If anyone can help me, would you please contact me at my email address below as I understand that Rootsweb is bouncing MSN subscribers and I have only received 2 Carpenter-L messages since joining abt. 5 days ago.
I would like to know if the Carpenter list receives this email Thanks again........
