some one give me a name to look for, name of the book that is. It sounds
like it is full of names >>
Vicki,
I'm sure I won't be the only one to reply but here goes anyway. A
Genealogical History of the Rehoboth Branch of the Carpenter Family by A.B.
Carpenter is probably the one that you are looking for. I don't have one and
I don't know that it is that easy to obtain. I have a copy on CD. If you
have Broderbund's Family Tree Maker's program you have probably received
information about it in the mail and didn't recognize it. The name of the CD
is Family History: New England Families #1 1600s - 1800s. It is CD#117.
If you are just starting and don't have family into the 1800's it may not do
you any good at this point. Like any publication it has errors. This book
is over 900 pages and is indexed. There are 12 other books on this CD. Let
me know if I can be of any further help. Family Tree Maker is on line if you
want to look them up.
