It's a bit premature to try connecting this line with either Rehoboth or Providence Carpenters. It appears that Samuel Jasper Carpenter's parents were Peter and Julia Ann (Watson) Carpenter, both born in Kentucky; they married in Rush Co., Indiana, 4 March 1841 (1850 U.S. Census, District 97, Rush Co., Ind., p. 455; 1860, 1870, 1880 U.S. censuses, Union, Shelby Co., Ind., pp. 537, 351, and E.D. 205, p. 210D, respectively; Indiana State Library Genealogy Database: Marriages through 1850, online at _http://199.8.200.229/db/Marriages_results.asp_ (http://199.8.200.229/db/Marriages_results.asp) ). Although Peter was born about 1815, he was not a head of household in 1840. Gene Z. In a message dated 6/5/2005 4:00:25 P.M.
