Dear Laurie,

The CE CD 2001 contain 98% of what I have on Carpenters and the related
families. The main file (MAIN GEDCOM of 88,000 names) and the Logbook
(Misc. GEDCOMS) contain over 100,000 names.

This includes articles and picture files. The CE CD 2001 is available at
my cost for $12.48.

The Carpenters of Carpenter Station KY are partly in the CE CD. They
were confused for a time but they are now established as Zimmerman
Carpenters from southern Germany. Corrective notes are in the CE CD.

A good web page for Carpenter Station is at:

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~carpenter/

In the CE CD are Carpenters from KY that are from the English branch of
the Carpenter family. Using your genealogy program search features you
will be able to find them by keyword search. Example: "KY". Search for
those that were born, died, etc in KY.

I hope this helps.
