The above is descendants of Timothy Carpenter (b. abt 1715) who has been
confirmed a member of the Providence Carpenter Branch. This data is not in
the other Providence books.
NOTE: Charles Lorain Carpenter also did a 3 volume DRAFT of 1200 pages on
the Descendants of William Carpenter but it was never finished. It does not
contain notes or sources. A copy is at the SAR Library in KY and the Salt
Lake City Genealogical Library.

AMERICA.Also known as the CARPENTER MEMORIAL. Amos B. Carpenter, 1898 - 900

corrected many portions of this work.

The above is the ancestry and descendants of a French Carpentier line. The
book below gives more on the ancestry and how, most likely, it may be
related to the English Carpenters.

What all would this material contain? Would it be worth it to only
one
group of Carpenter's? Or many?
