Hello Carpenter Cousins,
I was just informed of the passing of Buckley Own Carpenter-51050 who died about a year
ago of bladder cancer by his daughter.
He was a 11th generation descendant of William Carpenter-662, the 1635 immigrant who
settled in present day Providence, Providence, RI.
He and his son participated in email discussions on this forum many years ago. He was
helpful to me and others in documenting his Carpenter line. Below is his obit.
Our condolences to the family for their loss.
John R. Carpenter
