John, Thank you very much for your reply and the great piece of information you shared so kindly!I had no idea Sea Cliff was home to some Carpenter Loyalists but this could account for why William C. Carpenter went to Queens Co while his other siblings settled in Eastport.

Here is why I think your clue is so valuable:
William C. Carpenter's parents are Anthony W. Carpenter 1773-1827 and Mary ____? 1770-1827. Both died in Eastport Maine.

I think this Anthony W. who I found in Newmarket, Rockingham County, NH in 1790 is a descendant of Solomon Carpenter of Goshen NY which I found on your Carpenter CD!
Then Anthony W. Carpenter is found on a land petition in Charlotte County NB in 1807.(I have been waiting for this record from NB since December)

Anthony W. Carpenter's father had a sister, Elizabeth who married a Tory,Nathaniel Rogers and went to New Brunswick where it is possible that Anthony W. Carpenter went with this family or onhis own.

I am very grateful for your help which has always been so generous and for the CARPENTER CD!
Sharyn
