With them were 1 male 5-9 (William), 2 females 10-14 (Mary, Julia), and 2 males 15-19 (John?, & a farm laborer?). (John would have been 20.) Again in Hamptonburgh in 1840, Nathaniel was in his 60s, and had 1 male and 2 females 15-19, 2 males 20-29, and 1 female 40-49. (This does not match the family of Nathaniel Carpenter very well.) Phila, wife of Nathaniel Carpenter of Hamptonburgh, was listed among the heirs of her uncle Peter Rumsey in 1843. In 1850 John C. Carpenter headed the household in Hamptonburgh at the age of "35". With him were Julia A. 30, Mary C. 28, William 24, and "Farotte" (their mother) aged 59. John and William were farmers. In the 1855 state census of Hamptonburgh, William "C." Carpenter headed the household at age 27. Following him was his mother "Phitola" who was 68 and a widow, brother John C. 40, and sisters Julia A. 33 and Mary 30. There were also two domestic servants. The Carpenter family had lived in Hamptonburgh for 36 years. Their frame house was valued at $1200. In 1860 William H. Carpenter was head of household in Hamptonburgh. He was 32, a farmer with $13,600 in real estate and $3,000 in personal property. Listed next was "Christina" Carpenter aged 70, then John C. 40, Julia A. 35, Mary C. 26, and two farm laborers. Nathaniel Carpenter was born in the East Division of the town of Goshen. He learned the trade of mason at Washingtonville [in Blooming Grove], but settle in Hamptonburgh as a farmer. His son Oliver, born in the East Division of Goshen, spent most of his youth in Hamptonburgh. In 1851 he purchased a farm in Wawayanda township, where he was living in 1881, "engaged in dairying." He was a Democrat, but seldom participated in politics. He joined the Congregational Church of Middletown in 1850, and he and his wife were active supporters in 1881. (R&C p.691) [1]
