John CARPENTER
Set As Default Person -
Name John CARPENTER Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Est 1560 - Estimate based on dates of baptism of his sons and estimate of date of birth of his second wife.
Gender Male Died Yes, date unknown Notes - (Research):I thought the will of a Thomas Carpenter of Brabourne (KHLC ref. PRC/17/45/390) who left a will written in 1583, proved 1584 might show a link to John but it doesn't. It names 3 sons, James, George and Jeffery and a wife Thomasyne. Could be a brother of John, though if so not necessarily on good terms with him, as the two executors appointed were Henry Morris and Sampson Barrow.

Family 1 Dorothe, bur. 6 Sep 1598, St. Mary’s Church, Brabourne, Kent, England
Married - Carpenter was quite a rare surname in Brabourne. An Amee was buried there in 1582 and a Thomas in 1584, possibly John's parents. The only other two burials in the KFHS transcripts are Dorothe, shown as wife of John, and Elizabeth, who I think was his wife or widow.
In addition, there are only 3 baptisms, all sons of John in the few years before the burial of Dorothe. Hence it seems fairly save to assume that despite the marriage licence info. in Cowper not showing John as a widower that in fact he was, and Dorothe was his first wife.

and Elizabeth Lister of Appledore,
w. At Brabourne. Aug. 15, 1599.
(from Cowper, 1st series)
Married 5 Sep 1599 St. Mary’s Church, Brabourne, Kent, England
- From PR entry (viewed at CCA in 2015 and now on FMP, 6 May 2019)
"John Carpenter and Elizebethe Lyster was maried by a Lysence the 5 of Septeb 1599". (The date could be 3, not clear but the year is, it was 1599).
The year is critical - Elizabeth was still married to William Lyster in September 1598.
(KFHS transcripton has 2 Sep 1598 but is clearly wrong)
