WILLIAM3 CARPENTER (William2 of Rehoboth, William1) was baptized at Shalbourne, Berkshire, England, on 25 December 1631 and died at Rehoboth, Massachusetts, on 26 January 1702/3, aged 72. He married first at Rehoboth on 5 October 1651, PRISCILLA BENNETT, who died there on 20 October 1663, probable daughter (widow?) of Edward Bennett of Weymouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony, and Rehoboth. William married second at Rehoboth on 10 12th month [February] 1663[/4], MIRIAM SALE(S) (not Searle[s]), born perhaps about 1646 (see age at death) or say 1643 (estimated age 20 at marriage), died at Rehoboth on 1 May 1722, aged 76 (not 93), daughter of Edward [and perhaps Margaret (______)] Sale(s) (also Saile/Sails/Seal(l)e/Sall, the last probably comparable to _Abigall_; rarely S[e]arle) of Weymouth and Rehoboth. All are buried in Old Rehoboth (Newman) Cemetery, in that part of Rehoboth now East Providence, Rhode Island (TAG 70:194, 204; RVR 1:50, 178 [not 179], 2:234; Old Rehoboth Cem 14 [William "3rd"]; RI Cems 63, 69; BrCoPR 2:74-76; GM 1:254; Rehoboth Hist 34, 38-39 [widow Bennett, 1646/7]; MBCR 1:98, 202-3, 225; PCR 4:83; NEHGR 65:63-65; Hotten 70; see also COMMENTS, below).

COMMENTS: Priscilla Bennett is often said in electronic databases to have been born at Weymouth, England, on 5 October 1631, and her mother's name is sometimes given as Elizabeth/Alice Egington; never, however, do primary-source citations accompany these claims. That the date is exactly twenty years before that of Priscilla's marriage to William Carpenter raises suspicion that it originated from an estimate of her age on the latter date. It is not certain, moreover, what Priscilla's relationship to Edward Bennett was (see first paragraph, above). And in any case, his origin and the identity of his wife are unknown. But even if, for example, a baptismal record (parish registers do not record births) of a Priscilla, daughter of Edward Bennett, were found, it would not by itself be sufficient to conclude that such a pair were Carpenter's eventual wife and father-in-law.
Edward Sale's first wife, Margaret, was in 1637 convicted of adultery with two men (MBCR 1:98, 202-3; GMB 1:31). In 1637/8 the three adulterers were sentenced to be whipped and banished, "never to return again, on pain of death" (MBCR 1:225; GMB 1:31). Margaret is often assumed to have been Miriam Sale's mother, but this has not been established and, in light of the aforementioned circumstances, is open to doubt. By 1664 Edward Sale's wife was Rebecca ______, who in that year hanged herself at Rehoboth (PCR 4:83; RVR 1:50). In a letter dated at Weymouth in 1690, William3 Carpenter's son Daniel conveys greetings to him from "Grandfather [Edward Sale] and Grandmother and unkell Natthanell [Nathaniel Sale]," all then living at Weymouth (Carpenter [1898] 54; NEHGR 65:65, 151:77n98). From this, we conclude that Edward had again remarried.
The will of Stephen French of Weymouth, dated in 1678/9, mentions "my sister Mary Randol" and "my brother Searle." Robert Charles Anderson identifies the latter as "almost certainly Edward Sales of Weymouth" and goes on to say that "Edward Sales's [first] wife was Margaret ______. This family strongly resembles that of Richard French of Misterton, Somersetshire, who had (among others) Steven and Margerie with his first wife, and Mary and Joseph with his second. None of these children is mentioned in the 1638 will of their father" (GMB 1:701-2). The reader will note that Anderson stops short of identifying Edward Sale's wife Margaret as Stephen French's sister.

She was possibly the daughter of Edward Bennett and Elizabeth ?Edgington? Bennett. (There is a marriage of an Edward Bennett and Elizabeth Edington at Weymouth, Co.Dorset on Oct 27,1622) The connection has not been proven with certainty, though it was reported in Descent from 79 Early Immigrant Heads of Families (Elston, 1962-1971). For now, I have entered links to these possible parents, but this may not be correct.
Edward Bennett came to New England with his wife Elizabeth and four children, and settled in Weymouth,MA in 1636 where land was given to him. He was made a Freeman at General Court held in Boston, May 26, 1636. He resided in Weymouth seven years, when he joined the Rev. Newman's Company, and became one of the original proprietors of that part of Rehoboth, MA called Seekonk, moving there with his family in 1643. He died there about 1645-6.
