"Memoirs of Lenawee County Michigan" Richard Illenden Bonner, Editor, VI pp
272-274 is about Samuel Carpenter. Lists Joshua as his father. Also speaks
of an encounter w/Indians.
"Samuel Carpenter, Jr., was born in Shelby, Orange County, NY, January 18,
1822, and resided there until 1828, when he came to MI with his parents, Samuel and Polly Carpenter, Sr., and settled in this county, about two miles south of the then little hamlet of Logan (now city of Adrian) on 320 acres of land in one body, and cleared and improved nearly the whole of it, erecting good buildings, setting out an orchard, etc. It was on Sunday, July 22, 1828, that Mr. Carpenter came into the village with two wagons drawn by oxen, with his family consisting of his wife and 11 children, and a valuable and favorite dog under one of the wagons. At that time the village consisted of A.J. Comstock's house, a log one, which stood on the east side of the river, where Joseph Jones now resides; Noah Norton's residence, which stood a little east and north, it being constructed of slabs split out of logs, standing one end upon the ground, the other end against a pole held up by two crotches. Captain James Whitney and family resided on teh west side of the river. Mr. Carpenter drove directly to Captain Whitney's house, they being old friends and neighbors in the State of New York. Mr. Whitney and family received the new comers gladly, and cared for them cheerfully and kindly for one week. Mr. Whitney's house was a log structure, 16 x 20, and during that week sheltered and protected the two families, consisting of twenty-four persons. Mr. Whitney and his sons turned out and assisted Mr. Carpenter in putting up his house during this time. Mr. Carpenter was a thrifty, enterprising, well-to-do-farmer in New York, and having been a pioneer in Orleans county, he was conversed with all the phases of life in a new country; hence he was a valuable acquisition to the new settlement here. His wide experience gave him confidence in himself, and established him firmly in his new home at once. He soon became known to all the settlers and was of great assistance to many who came in from time to time.
All new comers who applied to him for assistance were kindly received and
helped in their efforts to locate and become comfortable. He resided on his
farm, which was familly set off into the township of Madison, until his death, which occurred October 3, 1871. He was born in Orange county, NY February 29, 1779 and was the son of Joshua Carpenter, who was a soldier in the revolution.
September 10, 1805, Samuel Carpenter, Sr., married Polly Rickey of Horseheads, Tioga (now Chemung) county, NY, by whom he had thirteen children, Samuel, Jr., being the ninth child. Mrs. Polly Carpenter was born in Horsehead, February 11, 1790 and died September 14, 1878. Mr. Carpenter was a soldier in the war of 1812, and drew a pension for many years. Samuel Carpenter, Jr., came to Michigan with his parents in 1828 and has resided in this region of country ever since. He lived with his parents until 1844, when he purchased a farm on sections 21 and 22, in Royalton, Fulton county, Ohio, sixteen miles south of Adrian City, where he now resides. There are only about six or seven men now living in or near Adrian who settled there as early as Mr. Carpenter, and his recollections of early times are very pleasant. His boyhood days were mostly spent here, and his recollections of incidents are vivid. Nathan Pelton was the first constable of Adrian, and owned a pony which he had broken to ride, and had learned to kick at a given signal. One day when he was coming into the village from the south he overtook some Indians and invited a squaw to ride with him, calculating to have "some fun" with her when he got "into town." He expected the pony would kick the squaw off when he gave the signal, but to his great chagrin he utterly failed in his calculations. It should be understood that squaws always ride "man-fashion," and when the pony began to kick the squaw threw her arms around Pelton, and he was obliged to get off himself first, while the people in the street shouted and jeered at him. One day some Indians stopped at Mr. Carpenters house to beg, and one of their dogs stole two hams which he was smoking in a barrel. Mordecai, one of Mr. Carpenter, Sr.'s,
sons, declared he could cure the dog of stealing, and at once filled a
goose-quill with powder and plugged it with punk. When the Indians came along again Mordecai took a piece of pork, crowded the loaded quill into the pork, lighted the punk, putting another piece of the punk over the one he had fired to protect the fuse, and threw the morsel down, which was soon swallowed by the dog. During the next half hour there was an explosion and then a dead dog. The incident caused great consternation among the Indians, but they soon buried their favorite canine in the side hill, and never passed there afterward without visiting the grave. Mr. Carpenters oldest son, John R., was something of a wag. After his marriage he lived on a farm north of his father's. During wash day in the spring, when he was very busy plowing, his wife discovered that she was out of indigo, and hustled him off "to town" to get some, telling him to get four ounces. He started off immediately, going to E.C. Winter's store, which was the only one in town, and ordered four POUNDS of indigo. Mr. Winter told him there must be some mistake about it, it must be four OUNCES that he wanted instead of four pounds. But John R. insisted on four pounds, and got that amount. It took nearly all there was in the store, and as the article was then worth thirty cents per ounce, and business was done on credit, Mr. Winter knew he would soon return. His wife sent him immediately back, and he took the four OUNCES home. November 2, 1844 Samuel Carpenter Jr., married Susan Welch, daughter of George W. and Polly Welch, of Royalton, Fulton county, Ohio, by whom he has had two children, as follows: Sylvester M., born in Royalton September 10, 1845, a farmer, and lives at home; George S., died at the age of two years. Mrs. Susan Carpenter was born in Royalton, Orleans county NY March 9, 1826, came to Michigan with her parents in 1833, and settled in Royalton, Ohio.
NOTE HOW IT STATES IN THE ABOVE ARTICLE that Samuel Sr. came to town in 1828
with his family ". . . consisting of 11 children". Later it states " . . . he had 13 children, Samuel Jr., being the ninth child". Son Andrew Jackson Carpenter was b in 1830, so he was one of the 2 ch born after coming to Lenawee.
CHILDREN BIRTH ORDER: With some difficulty I was able to change the children's birth order so that Samuel Jr. is now listed as the ninth child. Unless the children have certain and full birth dates, I am not certain of the birth order. Since there were 13 children, I have inserted an "unknown" in so that he/she shows being born before Samuel, Jr. This was the only way I could get Samuel to be listed as the 9th child.
