Hi All: First time posting to list and I need help! I have had absolutely no luck whatsoever in my CARPENTER research. Hopefully, it will look familiar to someone out there. This is all I have on my Carpenter line: John CARPENTER b. ca 1810 Maryland? d. ca 1865. Mar. Emeline ________ ca 1831. She was born ca 1817 Children: Lewanda (sp.?) b. ca 1832 Mary J. b. ca 1835 Sarah S. b. ca 1837 John R. Carpenter b. ca 1839 (believe he mar. Eleanor Rosanna McChesney) Samuel E. b. ca 1841 Emeline b. ca 1842 d. 16 Mar 1901; mar. Robert "Alexander" Kane Benjamin F. b. ca 1846 They appear in the 1840 Census in Charles Co., Maryland and the 1850 Census in Washington, DC. His unadministered estate was committed to the Sheriff in 1866 in Fairfax Co., VA . Hopefully someone out there will know more. I would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thank you....... Patti
