I am looking for more information on the following family. Maggie Kate Carpenter below is
my Great Grandmother.
Merritt C. Carpenter, born April 11, 1838, died August 31, 1876. He married Harriet Cole
October 15, 1862 in Minisink, Orange County, New York. Harriet Cole was born August 10,
1842, died April 28, 1879. She was the daughter of John Westfall Cole and Charity
Coykendall.
Children of Merritt Carpenter and Harriet Cole:
John L. Carpenter, born April 26, 1863
Chatty E. Carpenter, born December 27, 1866
Mary Emma Carpenter, born March 6, 1870, died December 19, 1872
Eddie Carpenter, born April 6, 1873
Maggie Kate Carpenter, born April 12, 1877
Most of this information came from my family's Bible.
Also in the Bible is a Edgar P. Carpenter died February 23, 1874. I guess this is
Merritt's brother or father.
Sincerely,
Daniel Riker
