I am still trying to research my Carpenter roots in Orange County New York. At present, we are making some progress. I am still trying to identify my ggggrandfather's parents. So I thought that I would try a different route, the wife. Elizabeth Canfield: I believe that she had three marriages. The first two marriages are documented in the Reformed Dutch Church of Mahackamack records. Minisink Marriages 1817-1843 performed by Rev Cornelius Elting (Dutch Reformed Church). 1. Dec 6, 1827 - Deerpark OC N York Benjamin D Carpenter & Elizabeth Canfield $2.00 Child: Levi V. Carpenter June 29, 1832 2. Aug. 13, 1836 Christopher Hollenback/Hollenbeck & Mrs. Elizabeth Carpenter $2.00 Child: Christopher Holenbeck July 5, 1841 A third marriage must have occured. In the Canfield Family Bible a third child is listed for Elizabeth. David Carpenter born May 2, 1847. I have not identified the second Carpenter that married Elizabeth. Christopher Hollenback and David Carpenter's births are recorded in the Canfield Family Bible. David Carpenter also listed himself as Levi V. Carpenter's half brother in a letter contained in Levi's Civil War Pension File. I am hoping that someone on this list may connect with this timeline and help identify Elizabeth's first husband's parents and identify her third husband. Thanks, Jim in Ohio
