Hi all!

In my search for George Carpenter who married Rebecca CLOW in Harrison County,
OH I came across this War of 1812 veteran.

George Carpenter, WC-5131, m. 25 Aug 1808 Fairfield Cty OH to Barbara Ann
Wilson, soldier died 30 Nov 1859 Henry County, OH, served David Ewing's OH
militia, lived Henry County.

"My" George Carpenter's estate was in probate in Putnam County, OH in January
of 1860. George died at the home of Azor Bunyan (son in law)in Putnam County
(in a township next to Henry County). A will (or estate) had been file
previously in Ashland County by another son in law, so the proceedings in
Putnam County were dropped. I have more on this "incident" if anyone is
interested.

Does anyone have the George Carpenter, husband of Barbara Ann, pension papers?

Thanks,
Betsy McGee Rice
