My Carpenter ancestor was living in Upson Co., GA and was on the 1850 Upson
Co. GA. They did not appear in the book because the census index that was
published placed them in another Co., So they could not be found by
Carpenter when he did his book. (He told me so.)
I located my ancestor by using family tradition that said they lived in Upson
Co., GA.

Regarding the book Carpenter's A Plenty..I would like to let people
know
that it is indeed a thick book with a wealth of information..BUT, if your
Carpenter's are the Swiss group that came here in the 1600 and 1700's and
were originally Zimmermans (from Pennsylvania), this book will NOT pertain
to
any of those Carpenter's. I had a chance to buy a copy of the book and
fortunately was able to take a lengthy look at it before hand.
