The people at the SAR library in Louisville are extremely helpful.....everything can be looked at, the pass is inexpensive. -----Original Message----- From: carpenter-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:carpenter-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Barbara de Mare Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2007 10:17 AM To: carpenter@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [CARPENTER] The Carpenter Museum and SAR Library I think I asked if family members could have free access to it, but not sure.

My Christmas present to all my nieces and nephews is a documentary history tracing each of them back to Samuel Carpenter. It started as my depository for documents for my DAR application, and gained a life of its own from there. Even though the last 10 generations are the same in each, I still have been about 5 years on this project, as I am always trying to improve it. Every time I think I am done, I proofread it once more and think og a missing document--or in the course of my research find more documents which I think should be included. I keep trying all different types of presentations of genealogical materials to see which are easiest to follow. I also have a couple of picture albums I have copied, transcribed everything on the picutres front and back, as well as notes on the album itself, and am putting that together for a book. This for a different line, but I have been surprised how many Carpenter pictures I have which I am including in the documentary histories. My aim is to say today "enough is enough," let's just call this project done, and get on with other ones. We will see how it goes--whether or not I can finally let go and just send it out. My perfectionism gets in the way of getting things accomplished sometimes.
