Samuel Carpenter His Relatives and Descendants COPYRIGHT, ~912 1 B\" LOUIS HENRY CARPENTER PREFACE '===:;;:::;;;::;;:::;;;::::;:~~~~BOUT the year 1825 the late John Redman Carpenter, cashier of the branch of the Bank of the United States at Buffalo, N. Y., with a desire to perpetuate the memory of his ances­ tors, took upon himself the task of collecting together the records of the Carpenter family, and compiled a biographical notice of Samuel Carpenter (First), together with a genealogical table of his descendants. This manuscript, though of great value, was incomplete and has never been published. It fell into my hands many years ago, when I availed my­ self of the opportunity to secure a copy from it, which I have since preserved, adding from time to time such additional matter as seemed appropriate. Since the original was written near two generations have passed away, and the hand that wrote it has long since mouldered into dust. After the lapse of more than half a century, in compliance with the request of my children to complete as far as possible the record of the births, marriages, and deaths, and incorporate some notice of those members of our branch of the family with whom I have had familiar intercourse, I have undertaken the preparation of the following pages. Inasmuch as my pur­ pose is to compile a genealogical record of the family, I make no clairri to originality, but shall make use of all sources of information to which I shall have access. Eow ARD CARPENTER SUPPLEMENTARY THE manuscript left by Mr. Edward Carpenter in 1889 pertained principally to the descent in the direct line from Samuel Carpenter, and it has been necessary to make many additions to bring this to date as near as possible. It was also considered advisable to add the descent in the female line through the Fishbourne, Wharton, and Meredith families. In making V LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Samuel Carpenter, 1649-1714.

No clue could be found among the letters and papers in the possession of the family, and there were no traditions which had been handed down to help to solve the problem. Samuel Carpen­ ter and his two brothers, Joshua and Abraham, were men of education, rather remarkable for the times, and must have belonged to a family of some consideration, where so much attention had been given to the instruction of its members. In addition, the brothers all had money on their arrival in Philadelphia, Samuel more than the rest, as he had evidently made profitable investments in sugar during his stay for ten years in the Barbadoes; but Joshua was soon able to build a large mansion house on Chestnut street, and Abraham left several hundred pounds in his will to different relatives. · That no word was left, by either of these, of the home where their childhood was spent is surprising, and can be accounted for most probably by the supposition that such statements were lost and forgotten in the lapse of years. In an inspection of the will of Abraham Carpenter in the records of Philadelphia, it was observed that he states that his brother John, who had lived at Horsham, Sussex County, England, was then deceased, show­ ing that one of his brothers had been established at that place. Lately a statement was found, in the annals of the city, to the effect that the town­ ship of Horsham, to the north of Philadelphia, was in the first place prin­ cipally owned by Samuel Carpenter, and that when the settlers thereon went to Samuel Carpenter, and asked him what name he would like for 'Qtbe Qtarprntet famtlt the township, he replied to call it "Horsham." This story coming to light made some who were interested think that probably Samuel Carpenter had some connection with Horsham; and soon after, in September, 1900, while making some investigations in England, Mr. Thomas Allen Glenn dis­ covered evidence, in the register of the Parish Church of St. Mary's at Horsham, to show that Samuel Carpenter, the first of his name in Phila­ delphia, was born there, and probably lived there until after his father's death in 1671, when he left with his share of the patrimony to seek his for­ tunes in the Barbadoes. The register shows that Samuel Carpenter was born November 4, 1649, and christened December 20, 1649, and that he was the son of John Carpenter by Sarah his wife. John Carpenter appears to have been married three times: (1) to Mary Somervale, January 15, 1631; (2) to Sarah--, who died September 28, 1650; (3) to Elizabeth--. The surnames are not given in the last two entries nor the dates of marriage.

  • JAMES LOGAN the Political Career of a Colonial Scholar
    JAMES LOGAN The Political Career of a Colonial Scholar By E. GORDON ALDERFER* A CROSS Sixth Street facing the shaded lawn of Independence Square in Philadelphia, on the plot now hidden by the pomp- ous facade of The Curtis Publishing Company, once stood a curious little building that could with some justice lay claim to being the birthplace of the classic spirit of early America. Just as the State House across the way symbolizes the birth of independ- ence and revolutionary idealism, the first public home of the Loganian Library could represent (were it still standing) the balanced, serene, inquiring type of mind so largely responsible for nurturing the civilization of the colonies. The Loganian, the first free public library in America outside of Boston and by some odds the greatest collection for public use in the colonial era, was the creation of James Logan, occasionally reputed to have been the most learned man in the colonies during the first half of the eighteenth century. Logan journeyed to Amer- ica with William Penn in 1699 as Penn's secretary, and became in effect the resident head of the province. Two years later, when Penn left his province never to return, Logan was commissioned Secretary of the Province and Commissioner of Property. He was soon installed as Clerk of the Provincial Council and became its most influential member in spite of his youthfulness. Even- tually, in 1731, Logan became Chief Justice of Pennsylvania, and, five years later, as President of the Provincial Council, he assumed *Dr. E.

  • Quaker ^Hcerchants And'theslave Trade in Colonial Pennsylvania
    Quaker ^hCerchants and'theSlave Trade in Colonial Pennsylvania JL MERICAN NEGRO slavery has been the object of frequent exam- /\ ination by scholars. Its growth and development, beginning X A^ with the introduction of the first Negroes into English North America and culminating in its abolition during the Civil War, have been traced in much detail. To be sure, scholars do not always agree in their descriptions and conclusions, but certainly the broad out- lines of Negro slavery as it existed in North America are well known.1 Slavery in colonial Pennsylvania has also had its investigators. These researchers have tended to place a great deal of emphasis upon Quaker influence in the Pennsylvania antislavery movement. Friends in general and Pennsylvania Quakers in particular are credited, and it would seem rightly so, with leading the eighteenth- century antislavery crusade. It was in the Quaker colony that the first abolition society in America was founded; the roll call of im- portant colonial abolitionist pamphleteers is studded with the names of Pennsylvania Friends—William Southeby, Ralph Sandiford, Benjamin Lay, and Anthony Benezet among them.2 The rudimentary state of our knowledge of the colonial slave trade, as distinct from the institution of slavery, becomes apparent when one examines the role of the Philadelphia Quaker merchants in the Pennsylvania Negro trade. Little recognition has been accorded the fact that some Quaker merchants did participate in the Negro traffic, even as late as the middle of the eighteenth century. Nor has 1 A recent study of slavery in America, which reviews the work that has been done on the problem and also introduces some valuable new insights, is Stanley Elkins, Slavery: A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life (Chicago, 111., 1959).

  • History of Upland, PA
    Chronology of Upland, PA from 1681 through 1939 and A Chronology of the Chester Mills from 1681 through 1858. Land in the area of today’s Upland was entirely taken up in the 1600’s by Swedes, and laid out in “plantations”. Swedes and Finns had settled on the west bank of the Delaware River as early as 1650. The Swedes called this area “Upland”. Peter Stuyvesant, Dutch Governor of New Amsterdam (now New York), forced the Swedes to capitulate and named the area “Oplandt”. September, 1664 – English Colonel Nichols captured New Amsterdam, it became “his majesty’s town of New York”. The Swedes decided it was “Upland” again. Local Indians were of the Lenni Lenape tribe – The Turtle Clan. An old Indian trail ran from Darby along the general route of the present MacDade Blvd. into the Chester area, where it followed today’s 24th Street to the present Upland Avenue. Here it turned down the hill passing the current Kerlin Street, and on to the area that is now Front Street where it turned right, following close to Chester Creek across the land which later would become Caleb Pusey’s plantation, and then made a crossing to the higher land on the opposite side of the creek. Dr. Paul Wallace, the Indian expert, sites this Indian trail; “The Indians could here cross over on stones and keep their moccasins dry”. The Indian name for the Chester Creek was “Meechaoppenachklan”, which meant. Large potato stream, or the stream along which large potatoes grow. From 1681 . William Penn, being a man who learned from the experiences of others, was intent on providing a vital infrastructure for the settler/land owners in the new colony.

  • OLMSTED TRACT; Torrance, California 2011 – 2013 SURVEY of HISTORIC RESOURCES
    OLMSTED TRACT; Torrance, California 2011 – 2013 SURVEY OF HISTORIC RESOURCES II. HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT A. Torrance and Garden City Movement: The plan for the original City of Torrance, known as the Olmsted Tract, owes its origins to a movement that begin in England in the late 19th Century. Sir Ebenezer Howard published his manifesto “Garden Cities of To-morrow" in 1898 where he describes a utopian city in which man lives harmoniously together with the rest of nature. The London suburbs of Letchworth Garden City and Welwyn Garden City were the first built examples of garden city planning and became a model for urban planners in America. In 1899 Ebenezer founded the Garden City Association to promote his idea for the Garden City ‘in which all the advantages of the most energetic town life would be secured in perfect combination with all the beauty and delight of the country.” His notions about the integration of nature with town planning had profound influence on the design of cities and the modern suburb in the 20th Century. Examples of Garden City Plans in America include: Forest Hills Gardens, New York (by Fredrick Law Olmsted Jr.); Radburn, New Jersey; Shaker Heights, Ohio; Baldwin Hills Village, in Los Angeles, California and Greenbelt, Maryland. Fredrick Law Olmsted is considered to be the father of the landscape architecture profession in America. He had two sons that inherited his legacy and firm. They practiced as the Olmsted Brothers of Brookline Massachusetts. Fredrick Law Olmsted Junior was a founding member of The National Planning Institute of America and was its President from 1910 to 1919.

    Herbert H. Lehman College THE CLASS OF of The City University of New York May 28, 2020 2020 1 Dear Class of 2020: As I write this, I am reflecting on the 2018 Winter Olympics. I remember being impressed by the vignettes highlighting the personal sacrifice and commitment that led some of the most admired and talented athletes in the world to the medal stand. Those traits – sacrifice and commitment – came to mind when I thought about your graduating class of more than 3500 students. Though you did not have the privilege those Olympic athletes enjoyed to devote themselves completely to just one thing, you have shown, especially in the months leading up to this moment, that you share the same kind of commitment and sacrifices needed to help you take your place among champions. While studying, many of you have worked several part-time jobs, caring for children and relatives, commuting many hours to and from classes. Without the benefit of a financial safety net, you have also now managed to complete the disrupted term of spring term, often with inadequate internet access and with multiple challenges compounded by stay-at-home restrictions. What you have achieved would be admirable in any context but in the context of 2020, it is phenomenal. Nearly 40 percent of you have lost your jobs and critical income this spring. Some of you have battled COVID-19 yourselves, and far too many of you have friends and loved ones coping with COVID-19. It grieves me to say that at least two of your peers lost the fight with coronavirus, with the Bronx being one of the counties hardest-hit by the pandemic in the country.

    Friends in Low Places: Philadelphia Merchants, Trans-Atlantic Smuggling, and the Secret Deals that Saved the American Revolution By Tynan McMullen University of Colorado Boulder History Honors Thesis Defended 3 April 2020 Thesis Advisor Dr. Virginia Anderson, Department of History Defense Committee Dr. Miriam Kadia, Department of History Capt. Justin Colgrove, Department of Naval Science, USMC 1 Introduction Soldiers love to talk. From privates to generals, each soldier has an opinion, a fact, a story they cannot help themselves from telling. In the modern day, we see this in the form of leaked reports to newspapers and controversial interviews on major networks. On 25 May 1775, as the British American colonies braced themselves for war, an “Officer of distinguished Rank” was running his mouth in the Boston Weekly News-Letter. Boasting about the colonial army’s success ​ ​ during the capture of Fort Ticonderoga two weeks prior, this anonymous officer let details slip about a far more concerning issue. The officer remarked that British troops in Boston were preparing to march out to “give us battle” at Cambridge, but despite their need for ammunition “no Powder is to be found there at present” to supply the Massachusetts militia.1 This statement was not hyperbole. When George Washington took over the Continental Army on 15 June, three weeks later, he was shocked at the complete lack of munitions available to his troops. Two days after that, New England militiamen lost the battle of Bunker Hill in agonizing fashion, repelling a superior British force twice only to be forced back on the third assault.

    jfrien&0 in Current JJi The Quakers in the American Colonies (London: Macmillan, 8£ by , pp. 603, i2s.). In the third volume of the Rowntree series which is, however, the second in order of issue, Dr. Rufus M. Jones, assisted by Dr. Isaac Sharpless and Amelia Mott Gummere, has produced a valuable addition to Quaker historical literature. His subject is divided into five sections, dealing respectively with New England, New York, the Southern Colonies, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. With the persecutions under­ gone by Friends in New England, culminating in the execution at Boston of William Robinson, Marmaduke Stevenson, William Leddra, and Mary Dyer, readers of the THE JOURNAL will be familiar. Penn's " Holy Experi­ ment " again is more or less known to all. The extent to which Friends participated in the government of the five geographical areas mentioned above, with the exception of Pennsylvania and even there it is associated chiefly with William Penn is not a matter of such common knowledge. The impression left on the mind of the reader after perusal of the book is that " The Quakers as makers of America " is no mere phrase, but the embodiment of a great historical truth. Especially interesting is the story of Quaker government in Rhode Island, under the Eastons, Coddington, Clarke, Bull, the Wantons, Hopkins, and others, perpetually confronted as they were with the difficulty of steering a clear course between adhesion to their peace principles on the one hand, and their responsibility for the safety of the colony on the other. Here, as elsewhere, the dis­ charge of civil duties did not prevent participation in the work of the religious body to which they were so loyally attached.
