There was an Israel Carpenter in Panama, Chatauqua
county NY, who was 1 yr old in the 1865 Harmony
Township census.....His parents were Harmony, born 26
July, 1820, Blockville, NY, and Sally M Green from
Wexford sherman Co, Michigan.....
Harmony's parents were Israel, b. 10 April, 1785,
Pittstown, Rensselaer counthy NY, and Hannah
Carpenter , his cousin, b. 27 Oct, 1784, Pittstown.
Israel was the son of Isaac and Jane Purdy Carpenter
also ancestors of mine. Hannah was the child Josiah
and Sarah Benedict Carpenter.
I am told that we are descended from Willaim
Carpenter of Providence Plantation and of Willaim of
Rehoboth, who were 2nd cousins to each other. I do
not have documentation, but am willing to share
anything I have with you. I realize that this may
not be the same Israel but it seems fairly likely.
