Rachel Carpenter

1Daniel T. Rogers, webmaster, Personal Opinion.
Another Rachel Carpenter (dau. of Amos Carpenter and Deborah Long & wife of Abraham Powers) exists. She has been assigned the same birthdate and birthplace as this one. A search of the internet reveals no clearcut answers, but my hunch based on geography is that this one is not the daughter of Amos.

Because Rachel's husband Ebenezer and his parents are mainly from Hampshire Co,. Ma., I feel that the connections with Coventry, Ct. are not strong. Thus Rachel's parents are likely not from Coventry. However is is said that Ebenezer did live in Coventry a few years before returning to Hampshire Co.

On the other hand the Rachel marrying Abraham is 9 years older than him. Perhaps we should assign her a later birthdate and make Rachel, the daughter of Amos, be the wife of Ebenezer French.
