Hello list,
I descend from William of Rehobeth Carpenters. My line goes William b. 1605
in England, William b. 1631 in MA, Nathaniel b.1667 in MA, Ezra b. 1697 in
MA, Greenwood b. 1733 in MA, William b. 1752 in MA, Clement b. 1781 in NH,
Guy Carlton b. 1809 in St. Lawrence co, NY., but lived in Erie Co after his
marriage, Charles b. 1830 in Chautauqua co., NY who married Harriet Palmer
(1840-aft 1920). Charles and Harriet lived in Napoli, Cattaraugus, NY until
his death in 1888.
Guy Carlton Carpenter married Priscilla "Polly" Smith b. 1811 in Erie Co.
NY. I just found Polly's parents, Wheeler Branch Smith b. 1777 in CT and
Priscilla Styrtevant b. 1777 in Kent (Now Warren), Litchfield, CT.
Priscilla's parent's name were Paul Styrtevant and Rhoda Lake, but I don't
have any other information on them. I was wondering if anyone else on the
list connects to the Smith, Styrtevant, or Lake families, and if they would
share their information if they do. I have descendent information to share.
