  • Notes 
    • Samuel, the son of William and Abigail Carpenter lived in Rehoboth MA all his life. It was recorded that he advanced money to carry on "Phillips War". This may refer to the Wamponpag Indian leader which led the Indians in the worst New England Indian war, starting in 1675, when three Wamponpag Indian warriors were executed for the murder of a Christian Indian, an informer of an alleged Indian conspiracy against the whites. When the 3 Indians were tried and executed he declared war. By 1676 however the whites gained strength and destroyed the Indians crops, captured their women and children, including Phillips wife and son. From all the gatherings, he was a man of fairability, reliable, and a worthy citizen; probably not educated, as his father died when he was young, and the work of the farm which was given to him and his mother gave him no time for schooling.
