Notes for J
OHN CARPENTER:
He moved to Woodstock, Conn., about 1690. By a vote of the Town of Woodstock in 1692, he was allowed two acres of land for every acre wanted in completing his home lot. He was employed in finishing the meeting house about 1692, by a vote of the Town of Woodstock. He had an estate amounting to two hundred and
thirteen pounds. It was this John who served during King Philip's War, and advanced money to carry on the same to the amount of œ1, 18s., 6d. He was also in the Narragansett expedition in 1675. He was made Captain of a company in the French and Indian War from Woodstock, Conn.

There is no doubt but that his first wife, Rebecca Readaway, was a sister to Sarah Readaway, the wife of Samuel Carpenter and that they were the daughters of James Readaway. James Readaway gives by will to his grandson Eliphalet Carpenter, terming himself his grandfather, 16 acres of land more or less.
Eliphalet was an orphan proprietor of land in Rehoboth, Feb. 7, 1689 and inherited his proprietorship by will of his grandfather.

It appears that John remained in Rehoboth and Swansea and worked at his trade in different townships, as we find him in Rehoboth, Attleboro, Swansea, and Dedham, Mass., Woodstock, Conn., and other towns. He is called "John Carpenter of Dedham, Mass." He was in Swansea In 1689 when he sold out his real estate to John Butterworth, Sr., and it appears the next year, 1690, he went to Woodstock, Conn. John Carpenter housewright) of Dedham, Suffolk Co. Mass., bought land in Woodstock, Conn., in 1708.

There is no doubt but that it is this John of Woodstock who married the widow Sarah Day. relict of Ralph Day who died Oct. 21, 1694. She was the daughter of Thomas and Hannah Fowler Fuller of Dedham, Mass. John Carpenter and his wife Sarah Day Carpenter were the administrators of the estate of Ralph Day. as
will be seen by the following order from the Judge of Probate of Suffolk County, Mass., to" John Carpenter of Dedham in the County aforesaid and Sarah his wife, (late Sarah Day and wife of Ralph Day, late of Dedham, bricklayer) administrators of the estate of Ralph Day, Suffolk County, Mass."

Sarah Fuller was born in Dedham, May 7, 1659 and was married to Ralph Day, Dec.6, 1682. John Carpenter's wife Sarah survived him and after his death married for her third husband Samuel Ward.

(The Woodstock Records state that Eliphalet Carpenter of Woodstock, Conn., was a son of John Carpenter of Dedham, housewright.)

The following is a copy of a deed of sale of real estate willed to Miriam Carpenter by her late husband, William Carpenter, sold to Daniel Carpenter No.37, her son, and signed by her and John Carpenter, No. 31, her eldest son:

"That whereas William Carpenter, late deceased, did by his late Will and Testament give to his beloved wife, Miriam Carpenter, twenty pounds estate of commons, the Proprietors of the Town of Rehoboth both ordered and granted divisions of land to be laid out and surveyed by virtue of an order and agreement made by the Town of Rehoboth, bearing date the 4th of January, 1702 or 1703.
Know all men by these presents that I, Miriam Carpenter of the Town of Rehoboth, in the County of Bristol in the Province of Massachusetts Bay in New England, and John Carpenter of the Town of Woodstock in the County of Suffolk in the Province aforesaid -Know ye that we, the said Miriam Carpenter and John Carpenter do for our souls, our heirs, executors, administrators, bargain, sell, make over, and confirm unto Daniel Carpenter of the Town of Rehoboth and Province aforesaid, a lot of land that is now due to be laid forth by virtue of an order before mentioned; namely, four acres of land being in the first division, the
first lot is No. -; and that the said Daniel Carpenter, his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns shall have good right and lawful authority to survey and lay out the said four acres of land when the turn comes and to record it to himself, his heirs and assigns as a good, perfect estate of inheritance; and we, the said Miriam and John Carpenter acknowledgeth our souls fully satisfied and contented and fully paid, and do, therefore, acquit and discharge the said Daniel Carpenter, his heirs and assigns forever.
