My thanks to everyone for their help with Nancy Carpenter and the link with the Opdyke/Updike family. One futher note on Hope Carpenter, Jr: It appears his wife was Mary Crane, daughter of Jeremiah Crane. Her brother, James, was one of the executors of Hope's estate, and another brother and sister in-law were witnesses to Hope's will. >From the New Jersey Abstracts of Wills: Name: Jeremiah Crane, Borough of Elizabeth, Essex Co. Date: 24 May 1743 yeoman; will of.

In my posting of 2/3/04, concerning Herbert Seversmith's work on the Hope5-4, John3 line of Carpenters, I failed to include an important cautionary statement. Seversmith did primary research only on John3 and his descendants (resulting in "an extensively revised account of the connections recited in A GENEALOGICAL HISTORY OF THE REHOBOTH BRANCH OF THE CARPENTER FAMILY IN AMERICA, by Amos B. Carpenter, 1898"). The material he presents for William2 of Rehoboth and all John3's siblings except Abiah3, however, is a repetition of Amos B. Carpenter, which he "abstracted for the convenience of the reader" and for which he "assumes no responsibility whatsoever for inaccuracies found therein." He says further that "[t]he descendants of this William Carpenter [i.e., William2] are given to the second generation as reported by the late Amos B. Carpenter . . . , and no attempt has been made to check the correctness of the Massachusetts lines." Anyone who consults Seversmith should therefore begin with the understanding that the same proliferation of errors found in ABC's work are duplicated in Seversmith--except for the lines of John3 and Abiah3. The material Seversmith presents for Abiah3 and his children is taken from L. Effingham deForest and Anne Lawrence deForest, JAMES COX BRADY AND HIS ANCESTRY (New York, 1933). The deForests preface their account of Abiah Carpenter's children thus: "THE REHOBOTH BRANCH OF THE CARPENTER FAMILY (1898) contains so many obvious inaccuracies and contradictions, especially in the sections concerning the children of Abiah3 Carpenter, Oliver4 Carpenter, and Christopher5 Carpenter, that the present writers have thought it best to construct the family line from other sources." While the deForests' decision is well taken, their version depends heavily on John Osborne Austin, THE GENEALOGICAL DICTIONARY OF RHODE ISLAND, whose material on Abiah3 and his family has its own problems (it's nevertheless an improvement on ABC). An article entitled "Abiah3 Carpenter of Warwick, Rhode Island, and His Family" will soon appear in THE NEW ENGLAND HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL REGISTER. It addresses the various shortcomings in the secondary literature pertaining to Abiah and his family. (The article's subtitle, "With Additional Material Concerning William1 Carpenter of Providence, Rhode Island, and William2 Carpenter of Rehoboth, Massachusetts," refers to two appendixes, dealing respectively with the following issues: [1] whether or not the two immigrant Williams were cousins, and [2] the marriage and immigration of William1 of Providence.)

I have a 45 page .pdf file of the Carpenter portion of Seversmith's book mentioned below. I can share with anyone who asks me privately (will send by email).

Mike, Sorry I can't confirm your hypothesis (message dated 2/2/04), but you may or may not be aware that, according to Herbert F. Seversmith, the elder Hope Carpenter's will appears in New York Wills, 8:196 (see Seversmith, COLONIAL FAMILIES OF LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK AND CONNECTICUT, Volume 2 [Washington, D.C., 1939], 545). Seversmith has Hope Sr.'s will as dated 8 January 1712 (rather than 1713) and proved 13 May 1713 (ibid.). He cites the New Jersey Calendar of Wills for the will of Hope Jr. (ibid.). Seversmith identifies Hope Carpenter Sr.'s wife, Mary, as the daughter of Robert Ashman (ibid.); this, as you know, is the forename of one of Hope's sons. Seversmith also concurs with a fellow genealogist's argument (which he presents) that Hope Sr.'s father John3 Carpenter's widow--though not necessarily the mother of some or any of his children--was not Hannah HOPE (as Amos B. Carpenter proposes) but Hannah SMITH, daughter of William1 Smith of Weymouth (and Rehoboth), Mass. (and Huntington and Jamaica, Long Island) (ibid., 544, 549-50, 1012). You'll note that one of the witnesses of Hope Carpenter's will is Nehemiah Smith; William1 had a son of that name. It was Nehemiah2 Smith who on 22 February 1699/1700 was grantor to "my Loving cussen [i.e., nephew] John Carpenter." In that John3 Carpenter had died ca. 10 November 1694, this would have been his son John4 (whose wife was Mary Rhodes/Roads) (ibid., 545, citing Jamaica, New York, Wills, A:98). Nehemiah2 Smith was thus the brother-in-law of John3 Carpenter. Incidentally, confirming Herbert Seversmith's stature as one of the outstanding genealogists of the first half of the twentieth century is his having been named a Fellow of the American Society of Genealogists (FASG) in 1942, two years after the organization was founded. The society has always limited the number of living FASGs to 50. Gene Z.

John, Thanks for the info. The date of the sale of land in 1715 by Hope Jr. & his wife indicates they were married much earlier than the family listing in JRC's email implies, where the oldest child was born in 1726. From Hope Jr.'s will (which I found on the internet) Edward and Hope were already 21 in 1739. >From the New Jersey Abstract of Wills Name: Hope Carpenter Date: 24 May 1739 Location: Elizabeth Town, Essex Co. yeoman; will of. Children--Edward, Hope, James (at 21 years), Phebe Ross, Jane, Mary, Rachel and Hanah Carpenter. Land joining lands of Samuel Lum, deceased, and John Porter. Executors--wife, Mary, and friend, James Crane. Witnesses--Jeremiah Crane, Jno. Osborn, Susanah Crane. Proved April 24, 1740. 1740, April 24. Inventory of personal estate, £100.04.06; sworn to by executors. Hope Jr.'s daughter, Hannah (or Nancy), is said to have married William Opdyck/Updike. She must have been born before 1739 and possibly much earlier. That fits much better with the Opdyck information which shows William and Nancy Carpenter's oldest child being born in 1740 (though possibly as late as 1752). Thanks for your help.

Page 61 Family is number 45 on page 85. It appears that the family left Jamacia about the time or soon after the father died as land was sold there in Jamacia, that fomerly belonged to Hope Carpenter deceased in 1721. And Joseph Carpenter bought land that formerly belonged to Capt. John Carpenter (the 1st), which he gave by will to his son Hope in 1718. Hope or his father, sold land at 12 different times from 1699 to 1712. From 1681 to 1688 there was one birth and one burial in the family of Hope Carpenter. Hope, Sr. and Hope, Jr. bought land at White Plains, NY July 5, 1700. Hope, Jr. and Elizabeth his wife sold this land April 8, 1715. It appears that he had his portion of his father's estate as he went along, as the will states: "I give my son Hope, 5 shillings, because I have done so much for him already." His residence was in Elizabethtown, NJ, in 1720: he probably moved there about 1712. The rest of the family went to Hopewell, near Burlington, NJ. !SOURCES: Page 86, New Jersey, Wilk, Calendar of Wills, New Jersey Archives, First Series, Vol. 30, and the Carpenter Memorial by Amos Bugbee Carpenter.

JRC, Thanks for the great information! The William Updike I mentioned in my query is the William Opdyck, son of Albert Opdyck you list as marrying Hannah or Nancy Carpenter, daughter of Hope Carpenter, Jr. (it was his descendants who changed the name to Updike). The data is different from the Opdyke Genealogy which shows that William Opdyck was born about 1715 (William Opdyck's parents were Albert Opdyck and Elizabeth Unknown). Subsequent research has shown that William Opdyck and Nancy Carpenter's first child was probably born in 1740, though possibly as late as 1752. If that is true, Nancy would have to have been born considerably earlier that 1741. Do you have any idea how reliable Nancy's birthdate of 1741 is? What is the likelyhood that Hannah/Nancy was born earlier than 1725, i.e. as Hope Carpenter, Jr.'s oldest child? Thanks for your help.

Hello, A new gimmick in virus delivery. An infected system will use the address book to mimic returned mail. See sample headers below. I just had a couple of them sent to me and my anti-virus caught it. The virus - WIN32/Shimg.worm - was enbedded in a file called "Error.eml". You may only see a file attached a "ERROR". Do not try to open it! More details on this worm are below. Be aware and be safe. Just delete the message to play it safe. John R.

I am researching my gggrandfather Levi V. Carpenter. I received his Civil War Pension file today. His parents are identified as Benj. D. Carpenter and Elizabeth Canfield. Benj. and Elizabeth were living in the Town of Deer Park, New York when Levi was born in 1833. Any information about Benj. or Elizabeth's family lines would be appreciated. Thanks, Jim
