Rosana/Rosina Carpenter born 1788 in VA or PA married John Forest/Forrest,
date and place unknown. They show up in Meigs Co OH in 1820. Rosana/Rosina
married twice after John's death in 1829. She married Leonard Cooper and
John Gilpin in Meigs Co.
The only clue I have for her comes from Rev War Period Bible, Family and
Marriage Records from Pension Applications Vol 6 where it says: "Amos
Carpenter married Margaret McGlaughlin 18 Feb 1803 by Elder Jacob Cozar at
West Fork settlement Harrison Co VA." In 1853, Rosina Gilpin gave a
statement that she was the nurse of Margaret Carpenter's when her son
Jeremiah was born and that she was invited to the marriage "but could not
cross the creek on account of the high rise."
Any help/clues/advice in finding more info on this Carpenter family would be
greatly appreciated.
