I found a D. Carpenter born 1931 New york on the 1860 census. If interested will have to check my records. My great grandfather was there during the raid and survived. Vicki in Idaho
Vicki, I have thought the D. Carpenter could be L. Carpenter with a large loopy flourish on the "L". "D." Carpenter was enumerated as an attorney, was single, and was born in NY - all true of Louis Carpenter. However, his age is off by two years from that calculated from the birthdate on Louis' tombstone, so I can't be 100% sure. If you would not mind taking a look at the census, if you have access to it, or I can e-mail you a JPG of the page, and tell me what you think, that would be much appreciated. My sense is that it is him, but I would like to be more certain. Thank you! Terry --- Ned Bench <nvbench1@juno.com> wrote: > I found a D. Carpenter born 1931 New york on the 1860 > census.
