NEW CARPENTER WEBPAGES -- CEC 2008
As part of his _Carpenters' Encyclopedia of Carpenters 2008 Update_ (CEC
2008), compiler John R. Carpenter has made available online new Webpages that
will be of great interest to those researching the Carpenters of Rehoboth,
Massachusetts, and/or Providence, Rhode Island. (Thanks to John for providing
the Web space.)
Heavily researched and replete with source citations, the featured items are
sketches of William1 Carpenter of Shalbourne (_Bevis_, 1638); his son,
William2 Carpenter of Rehoboth; each of William2's seven surviving children (these
include complete vital-events data on all _their_ children); and William2's
daughter Hannah3's husband, Joseph2 Carpenter, son of William1 of Providence.
Sketches of the latter man (to include vital-events data on all his
children) and his father, Richard Carpenter of Amesbury, will be added as they are
completed.
Having spent the last year researching and writing these sketches, I can
attest to their being filled with new information and corrections to the
secondary literature (including refutations of several longstanding claims and, in
a few cases, slight revisions of my own journal articles).
Supplementing the sketches as part of this new online material are my
Carpenter articles in _The American Genealogist_ (1995) and _The New England
Historical and Genealogical Register_ (2005); also included are subsequently
published additions and corrections. These articles, which the sketches cite with
some frequency, contain details and primary sources not always included in
the sketches.
The Webpages may be accessed from "Links to Sketches and Articles
Representing the Most Current and Reliable Scholarship Concerning Early Generations of
the Carpenter Families of Rehoboth, Massachusetts, and Providence, Rhode
Island, and Their Ancestors," at

Please share this information with others and, if you have a Webpage, add a
link targeting the foregoing Webpage. Thank you.
