  • Notes 
    • Number 60 in the Carpenter Memorial. Page 59.
      Family on page 77 (#32).

      "We are unable to find any record of a son Samuel on record of births and
      deaths or by deeds, but it is evident that there was a Samuel, a near relative
      of this family, which could not refer to the then known Samuels of Rehoboth or
      RI. It would be very natural that Abiah would name a son after his brother
      Samuel with whom he had been so intiminately connected in early life in
      business matters. We think it is warrented to assume that he had a son named
      Samuel, who was the father of at least 5 children, who could not at that time
      have belonged to any known Carpenter family of Providence or Rehoboth. He was
      probably first or second son, born about 1670 (most likely abt 1663), a
      resident of Providence and admitted a freeman there." page 59.
      A correction on page 833 indicates Samuel married Bethiah Bliss on 15 April
      1695. But other records indicate she was married to Daniel Carpenter this same
      date. See below. Is it possible that there was two Bethiah's?

      !DANIEL (SAMUEL IS WRONG) (1669-1721) & 1/WF BETHIAH BLISS ( -1702; 15 APR
      1695;REHOBOTH/COVENTRY, CT. PER NEW ENGLAND MARRIAGES PRIOR TO 1700.
