DE CARPENTIER ALLIED ANCESTRY In the copy of the de Carpentier genealogy received from the late Joncheer Coenen van's- Gravesloot it was mentioned that Pieter de Carpentier, first generation of the family, re ceived from the Prince de Chimay a grant of arms, de gu. atrois eperons d'or, lamoletteenbas. Crest, un lion iss., and also that he was Governor to the Prince de Chimay. Dictionnaire de la Noblesse, Croy, states that Charles de Croy was created Prince de- Chimay by Emperor Maximilien I in 1486 and Chevalier of the Order of the Golden Fleece; that he held the Emperor Charles V at the baptismal font, to whom he gave his name, and was his Governor or Tutor; that he died r r September, 152 7, having married Louise d'Albret, eldest sister of the King of Navarre. Jean le Carpentier in his Histo£re de Cambray, Vol. I, pages 411-413, says that Charles de Croy, the said Prince de Chimay, by the said Louise d' Albret, had as eldest daughter Anne de Croy, Princess de Chimay, Dame d'Avesnes, who married her cousin Philippes, Sire de Croy, first Duke d' Aerschot, Marquis de Renty, Comte de Beaumont, by whom she had Charles de Croy, Duked' Aerschot, Prince de Chimay, etc. 6 DE CARPENTIER It was from the grandfather of the latter, therefore, that Pieter de Carpentier received the grant of arms but it was the grandson to whom he was Governor or Tutor. Jean de Carpentier, son of aforesaid Pieter de Carpentier, married Isabelle de Villers, daughter of Jean de Villers, the younger, and M~rie van Myseele, his wife, and their descend ants bore the de Carpentier arms quarterly wit~ the de Villers, sable a dix losanges d'or accolees et aboutees, 3, 3, 3 et I. Crest, un vol d' or et d' arg. which arms are referred to in the account of the de Villers family (ped. 2). Rietstap's Armorial Register describes the arms as follows: Carpentier (de), Dordrecht. Ecc.: aux I et 4 de gu. a trois eperons d'arg., la molette en bas; aux 2 et 3 de sa. a dix los. d 'or, 3, 3, 3 et I, aboutees et accolees (ou, les quartiers intervertis). C.: un lion iss. (P. de C., gouvemeur-general des Indes neerlondaises, 1623-27.) An illustration of these arms is given in Beschryvinge der Stad Dordrecht, by Matthys Balen, Dordrecht, 1677, page 1305. Several illustrations also appear in two large folio pages entitled ''Namen en wapen der ed: agtbarre heeren oud raden ofte vroedschappen der Stad Dordrecht. Zoo als dezelve in den Iaare 1652; als Wanneer het Getal is Bepaalt op Veertigh Per- ALLIED ANCESTRY 7 soonen in Leven Geweest. Ex collectione Wilh. van der Lely, J. U. D. t' Amsterdam bij Rend. de Leth, fecit et execudit, 0 A 1740." The arms are illustrated of "Pieter de Carpentier, Roelandsz," "Mr. Roeland de Carpentier, Roelandsz, ob. 1687." An ancient painting of the arms on metal is also preserved at the Museum of Dordrecht, with paintings of other arms relating to the de Carpentier family. In all the foregoing illustrations the de Villers arms are placed in r and 4 quarters and the de Carpentier are placed in 2 and 3 quarters. Possibly, prominence was given to the de Villers arms on account of their distinction. Old seals of the de Carpentier family, attached to documents, were quartered in the same manner. Later the arms have been borne with de Carpentier placed in quarters r and 4 and de Villers in 2 and 3. Jean le Carpentier in his Histoire de Cambray gives a history of the de Carpentier family which is quoted in the Introduction of the Genealogy of the de Carpentier Family by the writer, in which he states that the family descended from Roger, Sire de Gouy, mentioned in 1096 at the Tournament of Auchin, from whom descended Barthelemy and Renaud Carpentier, and that Siger and Godefroy Carpentier descended from the said Renaud and were held in high esteem in Cambray and adjacent parts about 1200. A genealogy of the said Siger's descendants is given in Archives de la Noblesse de France, by l\L Laine, Paris, 1828, Vol. XI. In this work it is stated that the ancient arms of the family were d'azur, au chevron d'or, accompagne de 3 croissants d' argent. Jean le Carpentier, in the aforesaid article concerning the de Carpentier family, says that descendants of Godefroy de Carpentier, Sire de Daniel and d' Avesnes-les-Obert, bene factor of the Abbey of Vaucelles according to a deed of r 2 80, and brother of aforesaid Siger, left for England and Holland, where they bear different arms, al though descended from the same house which recognized as its founders the ancient and illustrious Seigneurs de Gouy or Goy who vvere so renowned in the archives of the Abbeys of St. Vaast d'Arras, Mont St. Eloy, Honnecourt, Mont St. Martin, etc., since the year 1036. JAN DE CARPENTIER Born at Sandwich, June 8, 1577, and his family. Extracted from his family register. REGISTER OF OUR FAMILY AND DESCENT.* PIETER DE CARPENTIER, born in 1488, t . married, first, CATHARINA GoDTSCHALCK and resided at Messines,t West Flanders.

JAN DE CARPENTIER, my grandfather, born at Messines in Flanders August 15, 1511, died at Ypres December 14, 1580, old style, and was buried at St. Marten's Church. Dame ISABELLA DE VILERS, my grandmother, his wife, died ·· at Middelburg September 15, 1584, and was buried at St. Peter's Church at the age of 72 years, new style. * This manuscript was published by Jhr. Dr. W. A. Beelaerts van Blokland of the Hague, Holland, in Nederlandsche Leeuw in 1926, published by the "Genealogisch-Heraldisch Genootschap'' ( Genealogical-Heraldic Society). The latest date mentioned by Jan de Carpentier is 1654, consequently he must have written or completed his article in that year when he would have been 77 years of age. His account agrees with the Genealogy of the de Carpentier Family by the writer. tin the Genealogy of the de Carpentier Family, by the writer, it was incorrectly stated that Pieter de Carpentier had married his first wife in 1488, whereas that was the date of his birth, consequently he could not have been Treasurer of l\1essines 1507 or 1508. tFiemish l\!Ieesen, English l\!Iessines, is a town of Belgium in West Flanders, 6 miles south of Ypres. §Greffier was a Recorder of a city or town.
