I am searching for infomation about Robert Carpenter, br: ca. 1807 in TN. I have not yet found him in Henderson Co. Tn., as I believe he lived there in the 1800s and then moved to Sharp County, Arkansas with his wife Mitilda (GAWF) and children. I have found him in the 1870 Sharp Co. Arkansas census, listed as being born in TN., but the word "Germany" is listed beside his name on the Heritage Quest census record for 1870. The children of Robert and Matilda /Gawf/ Carpenter are: ( all born in Tn ) Thomas M. CARPENTER b. 15 Jan 1831 Sarajain CARPENTER b. 19 Jan 1833 James Hardin CARPENTER b 6 March 1835 Rodise CARPENTER b. 15 Feb 1837 Edmon CARPENTER b.22 Jan 1839 Marthy Jain CARPENTER b. 9 Mar 1842 Mary CARPENTER b. 13 June 1844 Henry CARPENTER b. 27 Oct 1846 One of Robert and Matilda`s grandsons` was named STEPHEN ROBERT ( DAVENPORT ) Does anyone know of this Robert Carpenter???
