John and Phyllis - my Ambrose was born in about 1827 to Henry and Anne
Hoyle Carpenter. He was born in Lincoln Co., NC and immigrated sometime
before 1850 when he is found in Tishomingo, Mississippi. He married
Jane Davis in 1860. He died before 1879 as his wife and children were
mentioned in his fathers will as the widow of Ambrose. Thanks to
Carpenters A Plenty by Robert Carpenter I have finally been able to
connect some dots. Henry's father appears to be Jacob and mother
Suzannah Finger.
Here is the will of Henry.....

This is my ex-husbands family and I have been researching for my
children, who of course don't give a hoot about "dead relatives" but
maybe someday they will.
Happy hunting! Susan

Phyllis my William Ambrose Carpenter immigrated to Oklahoma as well
about 1880. He was born in Mississippi to Jane C. Davis and Ambrose
Carpenter. Is there a connection?

Are these just for the men?? My mother was a Carpenter, but she is
deceased. Most of my side of the line has ended. There was a William
Carpenter (Great Uncle) who went to OK, but have no information on his
children.? My other cousins have passed on too. My Aunt, sister to my
Mother is still alive.?
