John and all,
I am hoping that a male member of this family will have their DNA tested.
The lineage of this Joseph back to William Carpenter of English descent has
been contested. Joseph Zimmerman, whose brother was Samuel, resided in
upper Cleveland County, NC. They married Eaker sisters. All were German.
Joseph and Samuel are not direct descendants of Hans Zimmerman of Group 5
but rather of a relative from Pennsylvania. Their mother, Margaret Caquelin
(variously spelled) named them in her will. She married a Zimmerman first
and then a Caquelin. Samuel moved to Kentucky and a number of Joseph's
descendants moved to Tennessee. Others remained in North Carolina. Bob and
I have been unable to get a descendant of Joseph or Samuel to have their DNA
tested to prove once and for all that they belong to Group 5.
I am hopeful that this contact may motivate a member of the family to do so.

Marion,
I have Joseph Carpenter-13138 and Susanna Eakers-13139 who had 5 children
first in NJ then NC. The numbers after the surname are ID numbers from the
CE data base.
Joseph descends from William Carpenter-584 who came from England and
settled in Rehoboth, MA. This line is part of Group 3.
The line from Joseph C-13138 is Hezekiah C-12823, John C-9814, Hope
C-12716, John C-587 then William C-584.
On the Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project lineage page for Group 3 – see
link:
http://carpentercousins.com/generallineage.htm#reho
You will see William C-584 listed as C#584, his son John C-587 (C#587) and
Hope C-12716 (C#12716).
John C-9814, Hezekiah C-12823 and Joseph C-13138 are not listed.
A living direct male descendant of John C-9814 would really be welcomed
for Y-DNA testing. And if the Y-DNA testing was consistent with that part
of Group 3, then this would provide a genetic relationship or confirmation
that you are in the right Group.
I hope this helps.

I descend from Sarah Glendon Carpenter, Warner Lafayette Carpenter,
Lenonidas Lafayette Carpenter, Joseph Carpenter, and Peter Carpenter. I
believe that Peter Carpenter was the son of Joseph Carpenter and Susannah
Eaker. I am not sure if there has been any dna work on that line. I have
three male cousins that I could urge to participate in the project if
there hasn't been any to do that yet.
