Notes

19. Deborah Carpenter

SEE: See father's notes.  Unnamed daughter.
Her name was probably Deborah.

23. Sarah Carpenter

Samuel and Mercy may have been twins.

39. Mercy Story

Samuel and Mercy may have been twins.

41. Patience Story

Patience was listed as "Patience Annis" grandaughter of Elizabeth (page 37) in
the 1912 book.  She was willed a large amount of material sutiable for a home.

43. Enoch Story

A Hatter.  His will was dated 6 Oct 1748 and proved 7 Nov 1749 indicates he
died probably in Nov 1748, but this is conjecture.

Which has birth, marriage and death dates.  See Vol. 3, page 62+.
More information exists in the above record.  He had at least four children.

Elizabeth Houlston

Will dated 1 Mar 1752, probated 7 May 1753.
Will provided for one son and three daughters.

24. Samuel Carpenter

Samuel, son of Joshua was given 20 pounds in his Uncle Abraham's will in 1708.  He was steadfast to the Church of England like his father. He inherited from his father many lands given to his father that once belonged to Samuel Carpenter of Philadelphia who was a Friend.  This includes land in Bucks county near the town of Bristol and Germantown.
!Notes from the First marriage?  See below.
It is claimed that William Carpenter, descendant of Joshua and Elizabeth, and probably this Samuel, removed to Salem county, NJ, from Delaware, and settled in Elsinboro about the year 1750.  William belonged to the Church of England and was buried in the cemetery of St. John's Episcopal Church at Salem.
William married Mary, daughter of Jeremiah Powell, and left 4 children:
1) Mary, who married Job Ware. 2) William, who married Elizabeth Ware. 3) Powell, who married first to Eliza Slaughter then secondly to her sister Ann Slaughter.  Powell was wounded at the massacre by the Britsh and Tories at Hancock's Bridge, Salem county, during the Revolutionary War. 4) Abigail, who married Edward Hancock.
!SEE Page 38 of the 1912 book.

Is it possible that the William Carpenter described above descended from this Samuel's first marriage which ended in 1718? A son from that union (abt 1708-1718) born about 1710 would put a 35 year old settling in Elsinboro about the year 1750.  However, Jasper, the eldest son of the second marriage received the bulk of his father's estate per the 1912 book.  The date of abt 1710 would put William at age 10 when Jasper was born.

Reportedly an unmarried merchant. See note below.
It is claimed that William Carpenter, descendant of Joshua and Elizabeth, and
probably this Samuel, removed to Salem county, NJ, from Delaware, and
settled in Elsinboro about the year 1750.  William belonged to the Church of
England and was buried in the cemetery of St. John's Episcopal Church at Salem.

Slaughter.  Powell was wounded at the massacre by the Britsh and Tories at
Hancock's Bridge, Salem county, during the Revolutionary War.
4) Abigail, who married Edward Hancock.
Page 38 of the 1912 book.
Is it possible that the William Carpenter described above descended not from
this Samuel but from this Samuel's father's first marriage which ended in 1718?
A son from that union (abt 1708-1718 with a guess at 1715) would put a 30 year
old settling in Elsinboro about the year 1750.

25. James Carpenter

NOTE:   Group 25
The Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project has Y-DNA several descendants of this James.  See Group 25.

PARENTS:
Probably the son from the first marriage, born in England and came to America in 1683 with his father?  

Not proven as son Richard & Jane (_____) Carpenter!
NOTE: These persons have been dropped as a parents.

James Carpenter of Sussex, England had a father named Joshua.  They went to America.  Proving the connection between this James and his father has not been completed.

Father may also be: Joshua Carpenter (1638-1722) of Horsham, Sussex, England who went eventually to Philadelphia, PA.  NOTE:  This is likely Group 29 of the Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project.
However, based on child sequence naming: James' father may be a Laban Carpenter.  However no record has yet been found of this person.

To make things more interesting, a PRF entry has Richard Carpenter of Horsham, Sussex, England as the father!
Also a reference to the Thather Genealogy book, of 1910, but this is in error.

Folks,
I actually have two sources for the date of birth for James Carpenter. Both are found on Ancestry. One is the Millennium File, which gives the year of birth as 1650. The second is the AGBI, which gives it as 1670. I chose the Millennium File date because that one also accurately identified his wife (Affiance Piles) and placed him in Delaware. AGBI has him born in Massachusetts. Four trees on Ancestry give the birth year as 1650. Trees on Family search give the year of birth as 1670 (2 trees) and 1675 (three tress). Until there's some additional information, I'm fine splitting the difference at 1660 or just posting the 1738 death date.

Terry,
No sources identified for either. Both of these came from Ancestry, which provides few details for either. I've never made an AGBI record request for this information. I do lean toward a later birth year, simply because he would have been in his late sixties when his youngest children were born if his birth year was 1650.

I have a different calculation for James' birth, c1654-1673 and most likely c1663-1671, based on importation dates and his prior marriage in VA before marrying Affiance Piles in DE. I haven't looked at the Millenium File or the AGBI entries on James -- does either provide a source for the dates they give? Since neither of them is a source in itself, they are compiled from other sources of varying known and unknown reliability, their data should be sourced to a primary record or a reliable researcher, which would need to be checked to be certain that data is not just someone's guess that has made its way into the compilations.

Subject: Re: Meeting with the Carpenters of Miton, Delaware
Since James married in DE as a widower, I have conjectured that he was the James Carpenter whose wife died in Northampton Co. VA c1690 according to a 1692 record stating that "Anne Carpenter the daughter of James Carpenter was put to nurse to John Hawkins' wife above two years since {thus c1690} being soon after the said Carpenter's wife died, the said James Carpenter having almost ever since been absent out of this country." That James appears to be the one whose estate was confiscated on 29 Jul 1690 in Northampton Co. VA because he had "absented himself from his habitation." Marrying in the typical age range of 16-26 by c1689 to father a child born c1690 suggests he was born c1663-1673. This fits with what we know about James Carpenter of Delaware, but it's only my conjecture at this point.
Joshua Carpenter the brother of Samuel Carpenter of Philadelphia is documented as having only only one son, Samuel, who was born in 1686 and died in 1735. I haven't seen any evidence for Richard Carpenter. None of the people stating connections for James have been able to produce evidence of an actual connection, as far as I have seen. It's entirely possible that James immigrated, as many others did, without having a family connection in North America.

Subject: Re: Joseph Carpenter?
Reese,
I have wondered if some of the mentions of a Joseph in the earliest records mistook "Jas." for "Jos." Two mentions seem to be fairly certain:
(1) In May 1731 Sarah Shaddock age 12 daughter of Henry Shaddock was bound to Joseph Carpenter and wife Mary in Sussex Co. DE [VLSJ:8].
(2) On 7 May 1734 in Sussex Co. DE, Joseph Carpenter, weaver, sold to Joseph Russell 100 acres of marsh land on the south side of Broad Kiln in Sussex Co. DE, land that he inherited as nephew of Jacob Waring [JPM] or Warren [MMB] -- thus his mother would be Jacob's sister [MMB]. This seems to be the same land called The Point.
I haven't been able to place him.

Do you have any records of a Joseph Carpenter who lived in Sussex County, Delaware around the same time as James Carpenter?I was going through some early land records of Sussex County and came across three mentions (so far) of Joseph Carpenter:
1 Aug 1718: 31.5 acres ... being on the north side of Coldspring branch.. to Joseph Russell
7 Nov 1723: 169 acres ...being on the west side of Coldsprings...to Thomas Cade
7 May 1734: Joseph Carpenter... weaver.. to Joseph Russell .. yeoman. 52 pounds.. one certain tract of marshland...called The Point. It also said that this is the same land granted to Jacob Warring, who was Joseph's uncle, and left it to Joseph in his estate.
I've also come across one transaction so far for James selling land in 1703.- Reese

NAME: Affyance or Affiance

27. Enoch Hunt

Probably of England.

29. Hannah Carpenter

Born 3 Mar. 1686 per Samuel Carpenter book. Page 39.

William Fishbourne

Was a prominent member of the Society of Friends, and a merchant.  See note
in the Samuel Carpenter book about descent of the Fishbourne Family.
In James Usher's book his name is "William Tishbourne".  He is listed as being
the mayor of Philadelphia 1719-1720.
SEE page 160 plus in the 1912 book for details on this family line.

30. Samuel Carpenter 2nd

Per Samuel Carpenter book, on page 39, born in year 1688. Also marriage date
was 2 July 1711 per same page.

The following was noted:
"SAMUEL CARPENTER 2nd, was a merchant in Philadelphia, and resided in the
house built and occupied by his father, situated on the east side of King
Street, now called Water Street (in 1912), a short distance north of Walnut
Street."  The record also indicates he served as Justice of the Peace on
certain dates from 1715 to 1725 for Philadelphia County and a Member of the
Common Council on 2 Oct 1716.  Also a member of the Assembly 1720, 21, & 22.
SAMUEL also "became a successful merchant and died possessed of conciderable
estate.  His will dated Nov. 11, 1748, is couched in the most affectionate
terms.  It gives to his wife, after payment of debts and funeral expenses, all
of his moneys, goods, chattels, and personal estate absolutely, and all of his
messuages, store-houses, lots, lands, tenements, and hereditaments, for and
during the term of her natural life, and, after her death, to be equally
divided among his five children, and appoints his wife sole executrix thereof."
"A large tract of land situated below the mouth of Timber creek, in Glouster
County, NJ, constituting part of the Fancy Hill estate of Colonel
JOSHUA HOWELL and wife, was derived by purchase from HANNAH CARPENTER" after
the death of SAMUEL.
See THE CARPENTER FAMILY, SAMUEL CARPENTER AND HIS DESCENDANTS by EDWARD
CARPENTER and his son, Gen. LOUIS HENRY CARPENTER (1912).  Page 39-42
See the "letter addressed to SAMUEL CARPENTER, 2nd, in 1714 (three years after
he was married), by Samuel Preston, his father-in-law, he appears to have
indulged too much at one time in irregular habits, although there is no doubt
that he "mended his ways" and became an esteemed citizen.  The orginal copy in
the handwriting of the author is preserved, with an endorsement that he
had delivered the original on the day upon which it was written."  This letter
was dated "Philadelphia, the 20th of the 11th Mo. 1714" and signed "Thy
affectionate father.  Samuel Preston".

The original copy in the handwriting of the author is preserved, with an endorsement that he had delivered the original on the day upon which it was written.

Philadelphia, the 20th of 11th Mo. 1714.

I persuade myself that I need not use arguments to make thee sensible how thou stands interested in my affections. Thou must believe, when I gave thee my daughter, with the manner and circumstances of my doing it, that it was because I loved thee--and if thy reason may be permitted to guide thy judgment, thou will not unkindly resent what I herein say to thee, but understand and accept it, as a further confirmation of my good will towards thee. Believe me Samuel, I have with great sorrow seen in thee that which in affection duty and conscience, I am constrained to take notice of, and observe to thee for thy information, and that is thy constant, frequent and pernicious practice of going to taverns. It is very surprising, and exercising to me, and I take it to be an infallible sign of thy degeneracy from the religious example and discipline which thou hast had, and I do say to thee that unless thou reform thou art in great danger of being utterly ruined and everlastingly unhappy in perpetual woe and misery. I pray thee give me leave to say to thee (I am sure it is in all abundance of love) some injurious effects that flow from that cause and though I mention that, the expense, 'tis what I think the least of, but upon a modest computation that cannot be less than forty or fifty pounds per annum, which spent in thy family would make housekeeping more generous, and thy entertainments at home much more to thy liking, and abundantly more reputable; but if nothing of that sort be wanting, then it would certainly be an addition to thy estate, and an advantage to posterity. But the time thou spendest abroad in public houses is injurious to thy business reputation, relations, friends and family. They that come upon any business are disappointed, and what might have offered for thy interest is turned another way, and that is not all, thy reputation is sullied, which once sunk, the current of trade stops and is hardly ever regained. It is a scandalous imputation, "he is not at home but he certainly may be spoken with at Radleys." Thy absence from thy family makes thee too much a stranger to thy friends, and relations, whose visits and conversations might be instructive, edifying and conducive to thy advantage, not only in preserving affection, but helpful in advice, and experience, if needful; but the worst part is, it need be extremely disagreeable to thy wife who cannot but think herself slighted and ill used, that no endearment of hers, nor the very pledges of her affection, ever afford any agreeable entertainment, diversion or contentment at home but something must be sought for elsewhere--such once kindled are seldom if ever quenched, but all the bonds of conjugal affection, that brings you together are dissolved, and to speak plainly I fear something of the kind has got ground in her already--her disconsolate looks and frequent indispositions denote a depressed spirit (though I must say and it is a comfort to me) I never heard the least repining from her. To enumerate the many disorders that arise from this detestable practice, would carry me too great a length. I must confine myself to brevity, and only say that the too frequent use of strong drink is destructive to the whole fabric of life. It wets and destroys the animal spirit and clouds and affects the brain, breaks the constitution and contexture of the body. It makes man, the emblem of his creator, worse than the inferior or irrational creatures. How contemptible is the drunkard. But thou mayst say is not the case. I confess I have not heard it, and am religiously thankful for it. But let me remind thee, there is "a woe to them that go mightily to drink strong drink." Upon the whole Son Carpenter, that which weighs most within me, is, the concern I have for thy future estate, inasmuch as we did not give ourselves being, but are and must be subject to a being much superior to us, ('though I must grant it ought to be our greatest concern in life to be conformable to the will of that power that made us). I beseech you think seriously, our souls are at stake. If we deceive ourselves on this great point, the loss is irreparable. Most certain it is (the text is plain) "such as we sow such must we reap." Let us therefore I pray thee, as is our indispensable duty and interest, examine what we are sowing. If it be fleshly and corrupt delights and carnal pleasures, we shall assuredly reap corruption. If our works are works of iniquity, it is not our saying Lord, Lord, nor professing what we have done in his name that will save us, our doom Christ himself has declared will be "depart from me ye workers of iniquity I know ye not." Seeing then that our doom is irreversible, that our rewards must be such as our works are, and that the workers of iniquity must depart unknown, thou wilt confess it very much concerns us to take a view of ourselves--The tree is known by its fruits, men do not gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles. Give me leave therefore son Carpenter to query why art thou grown religiously cold? Thou appearest once or twice a week at the appointed place for visible worship; but so often so far out of time, that in charity I believe thou art ashamed and from a sense of guilt in thyself gets as much out of sight as thou well can. Art thou not become estranged in thy heart from those of the best reputation for sobriety and Christian worth? Is not the time thou spendest in the society of such persons from tavern conversation and company uneasy to thee? Art thou the primogeniture son, heir, and name of thy father, in the possession and inheritance of his virtues? Dost thou love honor and reverence his name? Come up in his place, tread in his footsteps, follow his example precepts and discipline. Art thou not unmindful of thy aged mother, a widow, to give her double honor, who acts the part of a double parent? As to customs, fashions and unprofitable conversation, art thou not therein taking a liberty for which in the end, in the tribunal of thy own conscience thou standest condemned? Pray Samuel let these things take place with thee. I am well assured thou art gone from the innocency of thy good education, which I take to be the indication of a distempered mind brought on thee through a very ill habit. Apply thyself to the great Physician of souls. He is able and no other to work thy cure. Take his medicine, follow his prescription; 'tis written in thy own heart, submit to the operation of it and thou wilt be made perfectly whole; but without such application thy disease will prevail. It must be a work of grace and a submission thereto, that will remove the cause, nothing else will do. Self resolutions are ineffectual and 'though they may give some imaginary relief, it will be but a deception, the cause remaining, the effects will not cease. I therefore because I love thee, earnestly beseech thee to take my advice who am in great affection,

Thy affectionate father,

SAMUEL PRESTON.

Hannah Preston

HANNAH survived her Husband by nearly 24 years. Per Samuel Carpenter book.

"The following obituary notice is copied from a newspaper of that day.
"On Friday, 6th instant, died MRS. HANNAH CARPENTER, widow.  Her last illness,
though very tedious and painful was supported with a greatness and strength of
mind altogether unusual in one of so advanced an age.  Far from repining at the
dispensation of Providence, or shrinking at the prospect of death she welcomed
its approach as the only means of relief from her sufferings and a happy
removal from works to reward.  Her remains, attended by a great number of
citizens, on the Sunday following, were interred in the burial ground of the
Society called Quakers, on Arch Street, Philadelphia, by whom she was always
esteemed an exemplary member."
MARY LLOYD, the first wife of her grandfather, was the first person interred in
the same ground.  William Penn was then present and addressed the assembled
mourners by the side of the grave.  The descendants of Lieutenant-Governor
LLOYD have since exclusively occupied the southwest corner of the enclosure at
Fourth and Arch Streets, and there HANNAH CARPENTER sleeps with the other
members of her family.

Executrix: Wife Margaret, daughter of William and Isabel Burton, yeoman, late of Yorkshire, deceased. John Annis, Sr. Commander of the Ship London Hope. So it would appear that Mary Langdale w/o Samuel Coates is the daughter of Josiah & Margaret (nee Burton) Langdale.  Josiah Langdale died in 1723 and in 1724 his widow Margaret remarried to Samuel Preston. )

70. Rachel Carpenter

RACHEL reportedly never married.  Died at Carpenter's Landing. N.J., on a
visit to her nephew, THOMAS CARPENTER, Nov. 16, 1794.

"RACHEL lived in Philadelphia until 1785, and must have been there through all
the occurrences of the Revolution.  She moved to Salem about the time of the
death of her brother PRESTON CARPENTER, and afterwards resided with relatives
in NJ.  Letters from THOMAS CARPENTER, of Jamaica, son of SAMUEL
CARPENTER, written to his aunt RACHEL, show her address, - now (in 1912) in the
posession of Miss SUSAN M. CARPENTER, Camden, N.J."

73. Thomas Carpenter

THOMAS reportedly never married.  Buried at the Friends Burial Ground at 4th
and Arch Streets in Philadelphia.
A Merchant.  His will, dated 21 Dec 1767, gives his property to his mother, his
maiden sister Rachel, Samuel, and Thomas Carpenter of Jamacia, sons of his
deceased brother Samuel and the children of his bother Preston of Salem, NJ.
The will was proved 26 March 1772.
Thomas Carpenter signed the Non-importation Resolutions.  A receipt indicates
he contributed 6 pounds to the PA Hospital.  From some invoices and
letters it appears that Thomas Carpenter was in partnership for some time with
Samuel Preston Moore under the name of Carpenter & Moore.

will take all the care he can.  There goes with the ship a person we have great
regard for, one JOHN CARPENTER, ye son of old SAMUEL CARPENTER.  I cannot but
recommend him to thy notice, as well as to some others of my friends.  His
father was an intimate acquaintance in our family before we left England, a
person of great esteem in the Province who died last summer."  He was ingaged
in merchantile pursuits on his own account, and attained success, although
comparatively young.
JOHN CARPENTER was a member of the Philadelphia Common Council from October 7,
1718, until his death in 1724.  His name appears for the last time, among those
present at its meetings, in the minutes of Council for 9th Mo. 13, 1723.
