He was called by the commissioners, Captain Eliphalet Carpenter, which title justly belonged to him as he held a captain's commission under the King. His name is on the muster roll of a large MA Company under the command of Capt. Thomas Cheney in Gen. Dwight's Regiment, which was raised in 1746 for the expedition to Canada and dismissed from service 31 Oct 1747. Eliphalet was called a very old man at his death. He married twice, his second wife surviving him and he mentions in his will his children and grandchildren. He speaks in his will of his granddaughter Anne, daughter of Eliphalet and gives her a gold necklace that belonged to his former wife. He renewed his baptismal faith at West Hartford, CT on 17 March 1728. His daughter, Hannah was baptized at West Harford, CT on 27 March 1728. The inscription on his tombstone in an old burying ground in Coventry, CT, reads as follows: "This monument is sacred to the memory of Captain Eliphat Carpenter who died February 22nd, 1792, after 10 weeks illness, with great composure of mind, in full hope of a glorious resurrection and in the 89th year of his age. /An honest man, rare to be found/ Lies buried here beneath this ground:/ Whose soul we trust is now above/ Where all is joy, where all is love./" On the same stone is inscribed the following: "Here lies interred the body of Mrs. Elizabeth, wife of Captain Eliphalet Carpenter, who departed this life May 6th, A.D., 1773, in the sixty-eighth year of her age: the first one buried in this ground." |
