I am hopeful a subscriber may be able to help me. The Carpenter family, maternal ancestors of mine, resided in Morgan County in the 1830s through to 1850. My great-great-great-great grandfather was an early Methodist minister, a circuit rider, the Reverend Timothy Carpenter (1773-1853). A grandson-in-law of his, the Reverend A.B. Wright, in his published autobiography, page 7 (published 1896),refers to Timothy Carpenter residing ".....on White Oak Creek, in Morgan County, Tennessee, where Schenck now lives. That is the old Carpenter place." I was hopeful that a subscriber might be able to help me pinpoint this location. It would be great if some remains of the Carpenter residence could still be seen, although I realize that is unlikely. Nevertheless, I would welcome the opportunity to visit the site where it was located, if given permission by the current owner. I have descriptions of the house, a dog-trot cabin, and there was also a lumber and grist mill built nearby by Timothy Carpenter, owned and operated by him. I have found that there is a Burnt Mill Bridge mentioned in the White Oak Creek area and wonder if this might be a reference, perhaps, to the mill of Timothy Carpenter. At this point, that is pure speculation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Charles Ward _CMW12635@aol.com_ (mailto:CMW12635@aol.com)
