Here is a short history of Joseph Carpenter and a few decendants,refferences are at the end.

(II) Joseph, eldest son of William and Elizabeth (Arnold) Carpenter, wasborn at Amesbury, Wiltshire, England, about 1635. The first mention madeof him is at Providence, Rhode Island, where on May 3, 1656, he iswitness to a deed from his uncle, Stephen Arnold, to his father, whichindicates that he was then of legal age. The town records of Warwick,Rhode Island, show that he had a "corne mill" at the wading place nearthe Falls on the Pawtuxet river. Here he remained until 1677, although asearly as 1663 he was at Long Island making negotiations for the purchaseof land from the Indians at Oyster Bay. The Hempstead colony on LongIsland resisted the attempts to settle at Oyster Bay, but finally allowedthem to remain in peace. Joseph Carpenter is recorded as having purchased3000 acres of land at Musketa Cove. Associated with him were NathanielColes, Abia Carpenter, Thomas Townsend and Robert Coles. They styledthemselves "The Five Proprietors of Musketa Plantations," which name andstyle was continued until after the revolution. Each proprietor had a"home lott" of five acres set off on which to erect a dwelling. Thesehome lots were situated on a street or highway that they called "ThePlace." The site of these homes on this street, which still bears thename, are very readily identified. On the "lott of Joseph Carpenter" thefirst house was built after the erection of a saw mill. It was occupiedby him all his lifetime, was the birthplace of nearly all his children,and continued in the family for several generations. The plantationprospered, although its growth was retarded by King Philip's war.Following the erection of a saw mill he burt a grist and fulling mill,agreeing with the other proprietors to grind their grain in return forthe use of water power. In a few years the Oyster Bay settlement had itsown town government, constable, overseers, justice of the peace andrecorder. They held their own town meetings and elected their ownofficers until the organization of Queens county in 1683. They had manyindustries, and the records show Joseph Carpenter to have been the primemover in their establishment, and that his energy and ability had made athriving community from an humble beginning. He died during the "sicklyseason" of 1683. The place of his burial is not known. He married (first)April 21, 1659, Hannah, daughter of William Carpenter, of Rehoboth,Massachusetts; she was born at Weymouth, Massachusetts, February 3, 1640,died about 1673.

He married (second) Ann (or Anna), baptized in the Dutch Church at NewYork in 1647, daughter of Francis and Elizabeth (Luther) Weeks. FrancisWeeks was with Roger Williams in the canoe when he first landed atProvidence. He and his wife were early settlers of Hempstead, LongIsland, where they were heavily fined for "entertaining Quakers," andsoon after removed to Oyster Bay. Children by first wife: 1. Joseph, "theeldest son," inherited the estate and title of his father. 2. A daughter,married William Thornecraft, 3. Tamsen, married John Williams. 4.William, born about 1666. 5.

Nathaniel, said to have been the first white child born at Musketa Cove,Oyster Bay, Long Island; married Tamar, eldest daughter of Robert andMercy (Wright) Coles. 6. Hannah, married Jacob Hicks. Children of secondwife: 7. Ann, married Joseph Weeks. 8. Benjamin, married Mercy, daughterof Robert and Mercy (Wright) Coles, sister of the wife of his halfbrother, Nathaniel. 9. John (posthumous child), married Martha Feake.These children were all prominent in the plantation, and some of themjoined in the exodus from Oyster Bay to "the Main," as Westchester countywas then called, and were among the first settlers at Rye, North Castle,Bedford, Harrison and Mamaroneck. Other families leaving about 1700 werethe Coles, Weeks, Lallings, Wrights, Townsends, Cocks and many others.

(III) Joseph (2), eldest child of Joseph (1) and Hannah (Carpenter)Carpenter, was born about 1660, at Pawtuxet, and inherited the paternalestate, operating a mill and the plantation. There is a tradition that hewas drowned trying to save the mill in a freshet. At any rate he diedbetween September 9, 1687, and 1692. His wife Ann was probably a daughterof Thomas Thornycraft. Record of two sons is found: Joseph, mentienedbelow; Thomas, born August 15, 1687.

(IV) Joseph (3), eldest son of Joseph (2) and Ann Carpenter, was bornOctober 16, 1685, at Pawtuxet, the date being recorded at Oyster Bay, NewYork, probably to authenticate his heirship to one-fifth of the MusketaCove patent. Five days after he came of age he deeded to his uncles,William and Nathaniel, farms in that section. His adult life was passedat Oyster Bay, and in 1707 he instituted suit to recover property inRhode Island formerly belonging to his greatgrandfather, WilliamCarpenter. This suit was successful. He resided on the homestead atPawtuxet until about 1715, when he sold out and moved across the Cove toLot No. 1, in the division of 1681, which is now in the village of SeaCliff. His house was burned by lightning in 1747-8, after which he soldthe land for o225 and retired to the village of Jericho, where he diedJune 3, 1776, at the house of his grandson, Joseph Carpenter. He was asincere member of the Friends Society, often occupying places of trustand responsibility in the town and was noted for his charitablecharacter. To his benevolence many worthy persons were indebted forsubstantial aid at the proper time. He married (first) in 1707, Ann,daughter of Captain Andrew and Ann (Coddington) Willett. She diedFebruary 9, 1709, and he married (second) in 1711, her sister Mary, bornSeptember 21, 1691. She was a granddaughter of Colonel Thomas Willett,born 1610, at Borley, Hertfordshire, England, and came to Plymouth,Massachusetts, in 1629. Later he was at New Amsterdam, and was the firstEnglish mayor appointed over the city of New York, 1665. The Dutch soonafter reoccupied New Amsterdam, and he retired to Swansea, Massachusetts,where he died August 4, 1674. He was a man of much character and abilityand still has numerous descendants in the vicinity of New York.

He married (third) in 1636, Mary, daughter of John Brown, a pioneer ofPlymouth, Massachusetts.

Andrew, son of Thomas and Mary (Brown) Willett, was born at Plymouth, andwas a merchant at Boston, whence he removed about 1680 to Rhode Island.As early as 1692 he returned to Boston and occupied a residence on BostonNeck which was built by his brother-in-law, John Saffin, speaker ofMassachusetts assembly. While residing in Rhode Island he representedWesterly in the general court. He married Ann, daughter of Hon. WilliamCoddington, of Newport, and among their children were daughters Ann andMary, who married successively Joseph Carpenter, as above noted.

(V) Ann, daughter of Joseph (3) and Mary (Willett) Carpenter, bornSeptember 24, 1716, died 1803, married October 8, or December 23, 1737,at Oyster Bay, Samuel Underhill of that town (see Underhill IV).

!SEE: The following data is from a web page on Glen Cove. (submitted byJohn L. Carpenter of NH.

A bit of the Hamlet of Musketa Cove, Town of Oyster Bay (now known as theCity of Glen Cove) early history concerning a young Rhode Islandinhabitant named Joseph Carpenter who purchased 2,000 acres of land onMay 24, 1668 in the then northwest section of the Town of Oyster Bay fromthe Matinecock Indians in order to erect a saw mill.

"On May 24, 1668, a young Rhode Island inhabitant named Joseph Carpenterpurchased 2,000 acres of land to the northwest of the Town of Oyster Bayfrom the Matinecock Indians. His intention was to erect a saw mill andfurnish New York City with lumber desperately needed for the constructionof housing. >Carpenter took in as partners in his venture three brothers:Robert, Daniel and Nathaniel Coles, who were also former inhabitants ofRhode Island living in Oyster Bay; and Nicholas Simkins, also of OysterBay.

These five businessmen chose to retain the place-name by which theMatinecock Indians had known the area, and therefore styled themselves"The Five >Proprietors of Musketa Cove Plantation." Musketa (also spelled"rnusquito") >translates from the Matinecock's language to roughly mean"the place of >rushes."

Within a rather short time, the "Five Proprietors" had dammed a smallstream that ran through the valley, whose course is roughly paralleled byGlen Street today. This dam was located near the foot of Mill Hill,slightly northeast of the present fire department on a spot marked by amemorial plaque.

On the dam was erected the saw mill, which by an early. covenant betweenthe "Five Proprietors" was jointly owned by each of them, and a smallgrist mill which was constructed by Joseph Carpenter under the conditionthat he grind the grain of the other proprietors "well and tolle free forever." (Millers were remunerated for their services by receiving apercentage of the finished flour as payment... usually about 10 per cent).

The lumber produced by the saw mill found a ready market in New YorkCity, which had used up most of the indigenous trees on Manhattan Islandrather quickly. By l679, just two years after Carpenter's purchase fromthe Indians was officially ratified by the colonial New York govemment,the mill was producing nine different thicknesses of boards and timber,as well as tile laths, shingle laths, wainscott, "feather-edged" boardsfor panelling, and custom-cut walnut for cabinet-making.

A small portion of the mill's accounts were recorded in the "Musketa CoveProprietor's Book," a hand- written record of the early settlers' landtransactions and agreements. The accounts indicate that one of the majorpurchasers of Musketa Cove lumber was Jacob Leisler, a prosperous NewYork City merchant who would, in 1689, overthrow the colonial governmentof the colony and, in 1691, would be executed for treason.

However, it appears that Leisler did not forget his acquaintances inMusketa Cove during his reign as ad-hoc governor in New York, heappointed Robert Coles as Captain in the Oyster Bay Militia."

He became afriend of Samuel Gorton when he came to Providence, driven fromMassachusetts by the intolerance of the authorities of that colony, andgave him part of his land.

The actions of Gorton and his followers were such, however, as to causethe older settlers to wish to be free of them, and he, with four others,in September 1642, appeared before the general court at Boston andyielded themselves up to the Massachusetts Colony, which acceptedjurisdiction and appointed them magistrates. In the formal complaint ofthe Indians to the Plymouth colony in September 1652, the seventh articleis as follows:

Notes for HENRY TOWNSEND:

Descended from Sir Ludoric of Townshend who married Elizabeth deHoutville of Manor Roynhom, Norfolk England about 1100. This is noted onUncle Harold's tree.

He settled in Oyster Bay before September 16, 1661 according to the"Townsend Memorial." Also it states that he managed a grist and sawmill,held the office of Town Clerk, was a surveyor and was active in publicbusiness. Public business is described as "...adjusting boundaries,procuring patents, and buying lands of the Indians."

Savage says that Henry may have been the son of Thomas Townsend of Lynn,Massachusetts. This needs to be confirmed by other sources.

Notes for ELIZABETH COLE(S):

According to the "Townsend Memorial," John Townsend's wife's name wasElizabeth Montgomery. Other sources state she was Elizabeth Coles,daughter of Mary Hawxhurst and Robert Coles. Perhaps she was the widowof ? Montgomery before marrying John. I am going to assume this is thecase.

The Town Records show that Joseph Carpenter was an inhabitant of the townof Warwick where he had a "corne Mill." "and where stood his dwellinghouse in the South side of the Pautexet River at the wading place nearthe falls on said river." This property was purchased by his father fromMatthias Harvey and given to him, probably at the time of his marriage.Here he appears to have remained until 1667, although as early as 1663 hewas at Long Island making negotiations with the Indians for the purchaseof land at Oyster Bay.

On May 24, 1668, the Indians sold about 3,000 acres at Musketa Cove toJoseph Carpenter - he having on November 5, 1667, obtained from GovernorNicholl's permission to occupy said land. This land was in much disputeas the settlers claimed ownership but on April 6, 1668, the followingorder was issued by Governor Lovelace to the constable and Overseers ofHempstead:

"Whereas request was long time made unto me on the behalfof Joseph Carpenter that he might have a certain piece of land on eachside of the river at Muskitoe Cove, where he proposes to settle two orthree plantations and to erect a saw mill and a fulling mill which mayprove very advantageous and be much to the welfare of the inhabitants ingeneral within this government, with which you have been made acquaintedand themselves have made some objections against it, yet have given me noreasonable satisfaction therein, and having ground to suspect that saidland thereabouts is not as yet within your bounds nor was ever reallypurchased by you, you having made no improvement thereupon though youpretend to have laid it out into lots for some inhabitants of your town.

These are therefore to require you that after the sight thereof with allconvenient speed you cause to be laid out for the use of the said JosephCarpenter a sufficient quantity of land on each side of the said Cove firfor the purposes and

intents proposed by him, and that you make immediate return of yourproceeding herein unto me which if you neglect to do I shall without moreado take care to dispose thereof for the pubic good as I shall seecause. Given under my hand the 6th

day of April, 1668.

On November 24, 1668, Joseph received as equal shareholders with himNathaniel Coles, Abia Carpenter (his brother-in-law), Thomas Townsend,and Robert Coles. Following the example of their Rhode Island people,they styled themselves "The Five

Proprietors of Musketa Cove Plantations,' which name and style continueduntil the Revolutionary War.

In 1677, official land patents were issued to the Proprietors forOyster Bay and Musketa Cove. The saw mill which Joseph built providedwood for the "fort" which stood at the lower end of Manhattan -FortAmsterdam.

Later a grist mill for grinding corn was added "for all the Proprietors

families without charge so long as the said stream was owned by all of

them."

Musketa Cove-the Indian name meant "place of rushes"-began to flourish in

the next decade as ships navigated the creek at low tide, and it was

reported in an early journal that "fifteen hundred foote of plank of two

inch thick was prepared and shipped to New Cork (from Musketa Cove in1678)

for use in the construction of Fort James, at the lower end of Manhattan."

The population of the tiny settlement began to swell as New Englanderscame

south, and in less than a decade after its first settlement the community

of Musketa Cove had among its population weavers, tailors, sawyers,

carpenters, millers, millwrights, shipbuilders, and many tradesmen who had

their own town government, constable, overseers, Justice of the Peace and

Recorder.

By 1699 a second dam was built further upstream on what is now Pulaski

Street. Besides lumber and flour, smuggling was apparently the third

industry, for in 1699 one-third of all goods imported into New York was

contraband brought in through Setauket, Southhold, Oyster Bay, and Musketa

Cove---rum being the chief item of trade. Favored by clear springs, good

farming soil, and a harbor, Musketa Cove grew through trade with boatsused

to carry goods to the city. In 1725 the first place of worship, the

Matinecock Friends Meeting House, was erected near the present day site of

Friends Academy. However, through the next few decades the increasing

diffiiculties with Britain concerned others of a less pacifist nature, and

by the outbreak of the Revolutionary War "a company of 80 men from Musketa

Cove joined General Woodhull's brigade" to fight the British. The

population of Musketa Cove in the decade following the Revolutionary War

was 250 with names like "Valentine, Pearsall, Craft, and Downing" amongthe

well-known in the area.

!Will made out in 1683. One record gives 1695 as death date.

Some 20 children are credited to him by at least two possibly three wifes.

Which child is which and which is duplicated is unknown at this time.

!In the Carpenter Chronicles, Vol 26, (Sept. 1996) a Signe. N. Parrishclaims

decent from this Joseph. From age of children et cetera, Amos as child to

Joseph is probably wrong. He most likely was a grandchild, but by whom is

unknown. Temporary connection.

!AFN 30Z7-PN and RJSH-H1 are the same person. AF has him dying in OysterBay,Nassau, NY.

The 1898 book also indicates he died at Musceta Cove, an indian word for

Mosquito Cove, in 1693 and that his wife Hannah died there too.

The five purchasers of Musketa Cove were Joseph Carpenter, NicholasSimpkins

and the brothers Daniel, Robert and Nathaniel Coles, sons of Robert Coles

of Pawtuxet, RI. A Map drawn in 1677 showed that the only Carpenters on

Musketa Cove were the brothers Joseph and Ephraim Carpenter. Josephowned the

site of the first house built in Musketa Cove about 1668. Adjacent to

his land was the land of Daniel Coles, son of robert Coles of Pawtuxet.

Amos B. Carpenter stated in the Carpenter Memorial he was never ever ableto

substantiate any migration from Wales to Long Island in 1678, supportingthe

determination that the brothers had orginated in Providence. James Usher

indicates in his record a Carpenter family that was descendant of

Caleb Zimmerman of Prussia that went to England as a "Friend" and his

descendants went to Wales then America to Long Island.

!A map drawn in 1718 shows a Survey of Westchester County, NY for a Joseph

Carpenter and a Bennonah Merit. Joseph the largest landowner shown, hadtwo

tracts, the first and second purchases. Timothy Carpenter's land wasshown

below Joseph's last purchase, where the town of Armonk now is located. The

land of William and Silas Carpenter was further south.

If Joseph died in 1693 or 1695 it could not have been him who requestedthe

survey above. His son Joseph died abt the same time period. It had tobe his

grandson Joseph (B. 1685) or another non-related Joseph Carpenter.

Descendants of Elizabeth Arnold

Generation No. 1

1. ELIZABETH7 ARNOLD (WILLIAM6, NICHOLAS5, RICHARD4, RICHARD3, THOMAS2,ROGER1)1 was born November 23, 1611 in Ilchester, Dorsetshire,England1,1, and died Abt. 1683 in Pawtuxet, RI1,1. She married WILLIAMVINCENT CARPENTER1,1 November 01, 1634 in Amesbury, Wiltshire, England,son of RICHARD CARPENTER and SUSANNA TRIVILIAN. He was born May 23, 1605in Nettlecomb, Somerset, England, and died September 07, 1685 inProvidence, , RI1,1.

Notes for WILLIAM VINCENT CARPENTER:

William and Elizabeth were married for a short time before they came toAmerica. A memorandum from the Arnold family states: "We left Dartmouthon Friday, May 1, 1635, and arrived in New England June 24, 1635, goingfirst to Hingham and than

to Providence, where we arrived April 20, 1636."

The first mention that we can find relating to William Carpenter occursin what is called the "Initial Deed," a document hastily drawn up byRoger Williams, at the time of settlement, in which he designates "hisliving friends and neighbors"

who are to have equal rights with himself.

These friends and neighbors were twelve in number, and untilDecember 23, 1661, this "Initial Deed was all they had to show in the wayof title to their holdings.

The "First Baptist Church in America" was constituted at Providencebetween August 3, 1638 and March 16, 1639. William Carpenter was one ofthe original founders. As a lay minister, he performed the marriageceremony at the wedding of his daughter.

Up to this date, 1638, the "Proprietors," as they now began to becalled, were living on their "Home Lotts", situated conveniently neartogether for neighborly intercourse and mutual protection. These lotscontained about 6 acres each and all fronted on "Town Street" with adividing line between the lots running each and west. WilliamCarpenter's lot was separated from the lot of Robert Coles by a"highway". Town street is now Main Street and the "highway" is MeetingStreet, so called because of the Friends Meeting House which now occupiesWilliam Carpenter's lot.

William Carpenter was allotted a large tract of land at "Pautuxet" -a beautiful meadowland, about four miles southerly from Providence,bounded on the east by the Narrangansett Bay and on the south by thePawtuxet River. In later years this was known as Cranston. It was herethat William spent the remaining years of his life.

In the affairs of the colony, no man enjoyed the confidence of RogerWilliams more than he. He was on numerous commissions to settle boundarylines, to lay out roads, and to locate and build bridges. He was electedto the general court on March 10, 1658 and was re-elected the fivefollowing years. For many years he was assistant to the General Assemblyand was Deputy in 1679. When King Philip's War was threatening toannihilate the colony, the General Assembly, on April 4, 1676, passed thefollowing resolution:

"Voted, that in these troublesome times and straits in the Colonythis Assembly desiring to have the advice and concurrence of the mostjudicious inhabitants, so desire at their next sitting the company andcounsel of William Carpenter."

Life was obviously dangerous in those days for on June 28, 1675, theIndians burned 18 houses at Providence and by March, 1676, there was onlyone house left standing between Providence and Warwick. Two historiansreport: "On January 27,1676, the Indians dispoiled Mr. Carpenter of twohundred sheep, fifty head of cattle and fifteen horses, all of which theydrove with them. Two that belonged to the said Carpenter were woundedand one of the enemy slain." "William Carpenter's house was attacked byabout 300 Indians and was set afire by them, but the flames wereextinguished by the defenders. Two of his household were killed."

An interesting note from this period is the General Court ofMassachusetts report which enumerated the "sins" which had brought thisdisastrous war upon this Colony :

"Pride in men's wearing long and curled hair, excess in apparel,naked breasts and arms and superfluous ribbons, toleration of Quakers,extortion in shopkeepers and mechanics, and the riding from town to townof unmarried men and women under

pretense of attending lectures."

Note: Ephriam married Susanna Harris (See Harris Section). Thismarriage connects the Sizer family and the Waugh family, albeit verydistantly.

him is at Providence, Rhode Island, where on May 3, 1656, he is witnessto

a deed from his uncle, Stephen Arnold, to his father, which indicatesthat

he was then of legal age. The town records of Warwick, Rhode Island, show

that he had a "corne mill" at the wading place near the Falls on the

Pawtuxet river. Here he remained until 1677, although as early as 1663 he

was at Long Island making negotiations for the purchase of land from the

Indians at Oyster Bay. The Hempstead colony on Long Island resisted the

attempts to settle at Oyster Bay, but finally allowed them to remain in

peace. Joseph Carpenter is recorded as having purchased 3000 acres ofland

at Musketa Cove. Associated with him were Nathaniel Coles, AbiaCarpenter,

Thomas Townsend and Robert Coles. They styled themselves "The Five

Proprietors of Musketa Plantations," which name and style was continued

until after the revolution. Each proprietor had a "home lott" of fiveacres

set off on which to erect a dwelling. These home lots were situated on a

street or highway that they called "The Place." The site of these homeson

this street, which still bears the name, are very readily identified. On

the "lott of Joseph Carpenter" the first house was built after theerection

of a saw mill. It was occupied by him all his lifetime, was thebirthplace

of nearly all his children, and continued in the family for several

generations. The plantation prospered, although its growth was retardedby

King Philip's war. Following the erection of a saw mill he burt a gristand

fulling mill, agreeing with the other proprietors to grind their grain in

return for the use of water power. In a few years the Oyster Baysettlement

had its own town government, constable, overseers, justice of the peaceand

recorder. They held their own town meetings and elected their ownofficers

until the organization of Queens county in 1683. They had manyindustries,

and the records show Joseph Carpenter to have been the prime mover intheir

establishment, and that his energy and ability had made a thriving

community from an humble beginning. He died during the "sickly season" of

1683. The place of his burial is not known. He married (first) April 21,

1659, Hannah, daughter of William Carpenter, of Rehoboth, Massachusetts;

she was born at Weymouth, Massachusetts, February 3, 1640, died about1673.

He married (second) Ann (or Anna), baptized in the Dutch Church at NewYork

in 1647, daughter of Francis and Elizabeth (Luther) Weeks. Francis Weeks

was with Roger Williams in the canoe when he first landed at Providence.He

and his wife were early settlers of Hempstead, Long Island, where theywere

heavily fined for "entertaining Quakers," and soon after removed toOyster

Bay. Children by first wife: 1. Joseph, "the eldest son," inherited the

estate and title of his father. 2. A daughter, married WilliamThornecraft,

3. Tamsen, married John Williams. 4. William, born about 1666. 5.

Nathaniel, said to have been the first white child born at Musketa Cove,

Oyster Bay, Long Island; married Tamar, eldest daughter of Robert andMercy

(Wright) Coles. 6. Hannah, married Jacob Hicks. Children of second wife:7.

Ann, married Joseph Weeks. 8. Benjamin, married Mercy, daughter of Robert

and Mercy (Wright) Coles, sister of the wife of his half brother,

Nathaniel. 9. John (posthumous child), married Martha Feake. Thesechildren

were all prominent in the plantation, and some of them joined in theexodus

from Oyster Bay to "the Main," as Westchester county was then called, and

were among the first settlers at Rye, North Castle, Bedford, Harrison and

Mamaroneck. Other families leaving about 1700 were the Coles, Weeks,

Lallings, Wrights, Townsends, Cocks and many others.

(III) Joseph (2), eldest child of Joseph (1) and Hannah (Carpenter)

Carpenter, was born about 1660, at Pawtuxet, and inherited the paternal

estate, operating a mill and the plantation. There is a tradition that he

was drowned trying to save the mill in a freshet. At any rate he died

between September 9, 1687, and 1692. His wife Ann was probably a daughter

of Thomas Thornycraft. Record of two sons is found: Joseph, mentiened

below; Thomas, born August 15, 1687.

(IV) Joseph (3), eldest son of Joseph (2) and Ann Carpenter, was born

October 16, 1685, at Pawtuxet, the date being recorded at Oyster Bay, New

York, probably to authenticate his heirship to one-fifth of the Musketa

Cove patent. Five days after he came of age he deeded to his uncles,

William and Nathaniel, farms in that section. His adult life was passedat

Oyster Bay, and in 1707 he instituted suit to recover property in Rhode

Island formerly belonging to his greatgrandfather, William Carpenter.This

suit was successful. He resided on the homestead at Pawtuxet until about

1715, when he sold out and moved across the Cove to Lot No. 1, in the

division of 1681, which is now in the village of Sea Cliff. His house was

burned by lightning in 1747-8, after which he sold the land for ¹225 and

retired to the village of Jericho, where he died June 3, 1776, at thehouse

of his grandson, Joseph Carpenter. He was a sincere member of the Friends

Society, often occupying places of trust and responsibility in the townand

was noted for his charitable character. To his benevolence many worthy

persons were indebted for substantial aid at the proper time. He married

(first) in 1707, Ann, daughter of Captain Andrew and Ann (Coddington)

Willett. She died February 9, 1709, and he married (second) in 1711, her

sister Mary, born September 21, 1691. She was a granddaughter of Colonel

Thomas Willett, born 1610, at Borley, Hertfordshire, England, and came to

Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1629. Later he was at New Amsterdam, and was

the first English mayor appointed over the city of New York, 1665. The

Dutch soon after reoccupied New Amsterdam, and he retired to Swansea,

Massachusetts, where he died August 4, 1674. He was a man of muchcharacter

and ability and still has numerous descendants in the vicinity of NewYork.

He married (third) in 1636, Mary, daughter of John Brown, a pioneer of

Plymouth, Massachusetts.

Andrew, son of Thomas and Mary (Brown) Willett, was born at Plymouth, and

was a merchant at Boston, whence he removed about 1680 to Rhode Island.As

early as 1692 he returned to Boston and occupied a residence on BostonNeck

which was built by his brother-in-law, John Saffin, speaker of

Massachusetts assembly. While residing in Rhode Island he represented

Westerly in the general court. He married Ann, daughter of Hon. William

Coddington, of Newport, and among their children were daughters Ann and

Mary, who married successively Joseph Carpenter, as above noted.

(V) Ann, daughter of Joseph (3) and Mary (Willett) Carpenter, born

September 24, 1716, died 1803, married October 8, or December 23, 1737,at

Oyster Bay, Samuel Underhill of that town (see Underhill IV).

Glen Cove Early History

On May 24, 1668, a young Rhode Island inhabitant named

Joseph Carpenter purchased 2,000 acres of land to the northwest of theTown

of Oyster Bay from the Matinecock Indians. His intenttion was to erect

a saw mill and furnish New York City with lumber desperately needed for

the construction of housing

Carpenter took in as partners in his venture three brothers:

Robert, Daniel, and Nathaniel Coles, who were also former inhabitants of

Rhode Island living in Oyster Bay; and Nicholas Simkins, also of Oyster

Bay. These five businessmen chose to retain the place-name

by which the Matinecock Indians had known the area, and therefore styled

themselves "The Five Proprietors of Musketa Cove Plantation." Musketa(also

spelled "rnusquito") translates from the Matinecock's language to roughly

mean "the place of rushes. Within a rather short time, the "FiveProprietors" had dammed a small stream that ran through the valley, whosecourse is roughly paralleled by Glen Street today. This dam was locatednear the foot of

Mill Hill, slightly northeast of the present fire department on a spot

marked by a memorial plaque. On the dam was erected the saw mill, whichby an early covenant between the "Five Proprietors" was jointly owned byeach of them,

and a small grist mill which was constructed by Joseph Carpenter under

the condition that he grind the grain of the other proprietors "well and

tolle free for ever." (Millers were remunerated for their services byreceiving

a percentage of the finished flour as payment... usually about 10 percent).The lumber produced by the saw mill found a ready market

in New York City, which had used up most of the indigenous trees onManhattan

Island rather quickly. By l679, just two years after Carpenter's purchase

from the Indians was officially ratified by the colonial New Yorkgovemment,

the mill was producing nine different thicknesses of boards and timber,

as well as tile laths, shingle laths, wainscott, "feather-edged" boards

for panelling, and custom-cut walnut for cabinet-making. A small portionof the mill's accounts were recorded in

the "Musketa Cove Proprietor's Book," a hand- written record of the early

settlers' land transactions and agreements. The accounts indicate that

one of the major purchasers of Musketa Cove lumber was Jacob Leisler, a

prosperous New York City merchant who would, in 1689, overthrow thecolonial

government of the colony and, in 1691, would be executed for treason.However, it appears that Leisler did not forget his acquaintances

in Musketa Cove during his reign as ad-hoc governor in New York, heappointed

Robert Coles as Captain in the Oyster Bay Militia.

The saw mill had a significant impact in the development

of the community: it provided a major influx of capital from outside the

settlement. Although the extant lumber accounts probably amounted to a

small fraction of the mill's total output (the accounts merely represent

those which remained unpaid after an unspecified amount of time) theytally

to about 80,000 running feet of board for a nine year period.

It appears, however, that the export lumber industry was

not the sole source of income. Lord Belfomont, then colonial governor of

New York, in 1699 wrote to the Board of Trade in London describing Musketa

Cove as one of the top four ports for smuggling on all of Long Island.

In 1693, a French privateer was spotted lying at anchor

in Musketa Cove's harbor, ostensibly to land illicit goods for resale in

New York City. A British frigate, the "Richmond," was dispatched from New

York to capture the ship and crew, but succeeded only in seizing thecaptain

of the French bark.

Also arrested was Nathaniel Coles, for his role in the

plot to defraud the King and colony of their just due in customs. Coles

was released several weeks later, officials fearing that "he might perish

from the cold in Queens County jail."& This incident is very possibly thesource of the oftrepeated

but undocumented legend that Capt. Kidd buried part of his treasure in

Glen Cove.
