Whoa there - I think this must be my ancestor Peter Seitz/Sides and Barbara Zimmerman/Carpenter. This couple lived in Tennessee and Kentucky before settling in Baton Rouge, LA. Peter died in the Battle of Medina in Texas. Where did you get this information? Also, if Bob Carpenter -author of Carpenters Aplenty is listening, we changed computers and I lost your email. Please email me again!
