22. | Joseph Carpenter (20.Hannah3, 7.Daniel2, 1.Lydia1) was born on 6 May 1751 in Providence, Providence County, Rhode Island; died on 26 Jul 1813 in Uxbridge, Worcester County, Massachusetts; was buried after 26 Jul 1813 in Prospect Hill Cemetery, Uxbridge, Worcester County, Massachusetts. Other Events:
- FindaGrave Memorial ID: 41637332
- Occupation: Revolutionary War Soldier and Cabinet maker.
Notes:
It seems strange to me that both Joseph and his wife Persis have the same birthday. The information I received came from a Gene Carpenter, a distant relative in the Carpenter line. He may have made a mistake in his transposition of this
information and, in fact, all of the information that he wrote for Persis may well be for Joseph, her husband (i.e. birth and death). I will need to look into this further: Joseph S. Hall, Jr.
Joseph Carpenter and his wife, Persis Rawson, removed from Providence, Rhode Island to Uxbridge, Massachusetts in 1772.
The epitaph on Joseph Carpenter's gravestone reads: "Farewell my friends and childen dear, I've left this world of pain, May virtue be your preactice here, Til we do meet again."
