Tim, my great grandfather was John, b. in Steuben county to Timothy Carpenter, b. Pittstown, Rensselaer county NY, 27 March, 1800. There was a Daniel Benedict Carpenter, b. also in Rensselaer county, 1788, Timothy's cousin and married to Timothy's sister, Huldah, who move to Chatauqua county in 1807 as did his brother James after their father Josiah bought land there (1000 acres). Other brothers who went there were Isaac, Josiah and Timothy. Not my gggrandfather, but they were his first cousins. So far as my information goes, none of these had sons named Daniel, but there were a lot of Carpenters in and around Harmony in Chatauqua county and I suspect they were all cousins. I hope this is a help and not just a confusion. --- Kjgcarp@aol.com wrote: > John - what was your greatgrandfather's name.
