!PER "160 ALLIED FAMILIES", 1893 REPRINT 1977, AUSTIN: PAGE 56:
SON OF WILLIAM AND ELIZABETH ARNOLD CARPENTER. SECOND WIFE LISTED AS ANN WICKS
DAUGHTER OF FRANCIS AND ALICE WICKS. JOSEPH DIED 1683 AND ANN WICKS DIED 1692+.
HANNAH (FIRST WIFE) DAUGHTER OF WILLIAM AND ABIGAIL CARPENTER.

!Will made out in 1683. One record gives 1695 as death date.
Some 20 children are credited to him by at least two possibly three wives.
Which child is which and which is duplicated is unknown at this time.
!In the Carpenter Chronicles, Vol 26, (Sept. 1996) a Signe. N. Parrish claims
decent from this Joseph. From age of children et cetera, Amos as child to
Joseph is probably wrong. He most likely was a grandchild, but by whom is
unknown. Temporary connection.
!AFN 30Z7-PN and RJSH-H1 are the same person. AF has him dying in Oyster Bay,
Nassau, NY.
The 1898 book also indicates he died at Musketa Cove, an Indian word for
Mosquito Cove, in 1693 and that his wife Hannah died there too.
The five purchasers of Musketa Cove were Joseph Carpenter, Nicholas Simpkins
and the brothers Daniel, Robert and Nathaniel Coles, sons of Robert Coles
of Pawtuxet, RI. A Map drawn in 1677 showed that the only Carpenters on
Musketa Cove were the brothers Joseph and Ephraim Carpenter. Joseph owned the
site of the first house built in Musketa Cove about 1668. Adjacent to
his land was the land of Daniel Coles, son of Robert Coles of Pawtuxet.
Amos B. Carpenter stated in the Carpenter Memorial he was never ever able to
substantiate any migration from Wales to Long Island in 1678, supporting the
determination that the brothers had originated in Providence. James Usher
indicates in his record a Carpenter family that was descendant of
Caleb Zimmerman of Prussia that went to England as a "Friend" and his
descendants went to Wales then America to Long Island.

!A map drawn in 1718 shows a Survey of Westchester County, NY for a Joseph
Carpenter and a Bennonah Merit. Joseph the largest landowner shown, had two
tracts, the first and second purchases. Timothy Carpenter's land was shown
below Joseph's last purchase, where the town of Armonk now is located. The
land of William and Silas Carpenter was further south.
If Joseph died in 1693 or 1695 it could not have been him who requested the
survey above. His son Joseph died abt the same time period. It had to be his
grandson Joseph (B. 1685) or another non-related Joseph Carpenter.
