Dear John:? (Smile)? I have been researching my Theda Carpenter for about 10 years now.? I've been told that her father was a Joseph and that her mothers name was Harriett, but have not been able to confirm that.?? Theda was born at De Ruyter, NY in 1804, and married Milton Maxson Main ca 1823.? They immigrated to Chenango county then to Portville NY, and settled at Main Settlement east of Portville.?

John and Meralyn, Do either of you have any mention of a RoxeyAnn Carpenter (b Oct. 1812; married Asahel Luther) or an Alfred Madison Carpenter (b. Mar 24, 1830 in Madison County, NY; d. Jan 14, 1915, KS) in your lines? They are the oldest and youngest of a family of 11 children. Alfred Madison Carpenter is my g-grandfather and my brick wall. I'm looking for names of the other 9 siblings and parents. If you have any possibilities, please help me scale my wall!

You might possibly be looking for me ? I am not a "Dr." however. I worked on marriage & death abstracts from the Huntington, Suffolk County, newspaper the "Long-Islander." The printed volume published by Heritage Books [now out of print, but they are sitting on the rights to my data & will not let me put the info on line] is "Deaths Reported by the 'Long Islander': 1878-1890." The on-line version available in the "Long Island Source Records" section of the great site: http://longislandgenealogy.com covers "Deaths Reported by the 'Long Islander': 1891-1900" and "Marriages Reported by the 'Long Islander': 1878-1900." The paper was published in Huntington & generally covers the Towns of Huntington, Smithtown, & Oyster Bay ... with scattered info from North Hempstead, Jamaica, Hempstead, Brookhaven, Riverhead, Babylon & Islip Towns + a good amount on Huntington, Oyster Bay, & Smithtown people who were married or died in Brooklyn or New York City + scattered info from all across the country on marriages or deaths of Huntington, Oyster Bay, & Smithtown people. You might find info on people from anywhere on Long Island, but west of Glen Cove the reporting isn't as extensive; ditto for the entire South Shore from the Rockaways on out; ditto for points east of Port Jefferson ... but if you are doing the North Shore from Glen Cove to Port Jefferson & south to the mid-point of the Island, chances are the death or marriage will be reported. I'll do look ups in my printed book for 1878-1890 BUT REALLY ONLY FOR PEOPLE WITH DIRECT HUNTINGTON, SMITHTOWN, OR OYSTER BAY TOWN CONNECTIONS ... otherwise it's really a waste of your time to ask, since the coverage was so hit & miss outside those 3 Towns. The "South Side Signal" covers the Babylon & Islip area much better; ditto on the Jamaica, Flushing, & Hempstead papers for Queens County info; and ditto for any East End papers for the East End Towns.

Mercer Co. but none of the above Carpenters are there. My grandfather talked about his Irish grandmother Mary - he had two but the other one was German, Mary Rickenbrode Hennage. The death certificate of Levi gives his mother as Colter and his father as Carpenter (from a son in law). Same son in law gave information for name of Levi's 2nd wife as Alice Short in one place and Alice Soult in another. I would also appreciate any information on Alice born 9 Jul 1862 in Pennsylvania. All census records show Lewis and his mother were born in Pennsylvania and his father in Virginia. Mary shows her father born in Ireland and her mother born in Pennsylvania.

Muriel, Do you know anything about his ancestry and if any male Carpenter descendants are alive today? Did he marry Catherine Dowdle on 05 APR 1750 Heytesbury, Wiltshire, England? "His son, Frank William Carpenter married my great aunt Marie England. She is the daughter of William England the celebrated stereophotographer." Do you have any info on his son and his family?
