Hi John,
The Benj F. Carpenter you listed is a son of Andrew Carpenter & Anna
Sophia Smith. The children listed also agree with one exception, i.e.,
I show John G. Carpenter as John M. Carpenter, b. 27 Feb 1883. I have a
number of Fanny Carpenters, but none match a birth of 1874, I do have
one born 1877 but no mention of Stinson. There are also two with not
further info regarding birth, etc.,
I found this same information a few years ago which helped to confirm
Robert C.'s info.
Thanks Bob Carpenter/6060

Hello,
The Eleventh United States Census was taken June 2, 1890. The data was tabulated by
machine for the first time. The data reported that the distribution of the population had
resulted in the disappearance of the American frontier. Most of the 1890 census materials
were destroyed in a 1921 fire.
...
In December 1932, following standard Federal record-keeping procedures, the Chief Clerk
of the Bureau of the Census sent the Librarian of Congress a list of papers to be
destroyed, including the original 1890 (IE SURVIVING) census schedules. The Librarian was
asked by the Bureau to identify any records which should be retained for historical
purposes, but the Librarian did not accept the census records. Congress authorized
destruction of that list of records on February 21, 1933, and the surviving original 1890
census records were destroyed by government order by 1934 or 1935. The other censuses for
which some information has been lost are the 1800 and 1810 enumerations. No microdata from
the 1890 census survive, but aggregate data for small areas, together with compatible
cartographic boundary files, can be downloaded from the National Historical Geographic
Information System. From:http

All that said, free access to the Carpenters from is at
