	THE HISTORY																																										1899			1968									1913			2001
																																												1927												1939
	The year was 1853.  The five eldest living sons of Justin and Elizabeth Carpenter embarked with their families on a month long covered wagon trek																																										Dorothy Kathryn Young												Florence Mae Zoesch
	to the fertile land of Central Wisconsin, relocating from their homes in Lexington, Ohio.  The brothers and their families were: Isaac; Jeremiah and																																										1899			1998									1916
	his wife Wilamina; Daniel, his wife Margaret and their infant son Isaac; Justin, his wife Caroline and their infant daughter Amanda; and, Timothy.
	Isaac, the eldest, was 27, and Timothy, the youngest, was 16.  The wagon barely made 25 miles on the trip’s first day, stopping in Galion, Ohio.																																										Florence Eliz. Carpenter												Lawrence Edward Carpenter
	Crossing the Wisconsin River by ferry at Sauk City, they reached their final destination, a settlement in Franklin Township in Sauk County just north																																										1901			1988									1915
	of the Village of Plain.  Originally called ”Carpenter Settlement”, the community later became White Mound.  The brothers settled on properties																																											1920												1940
	adjacent to one another, filed claims at the nearest government office in Dodgeville and established farms.																																										Martin David Bingner												June Louise Dunbar

	Jeremiah and Wilamina returned to Ohio but were replaced by brother John Hiram, who settled in White Mound in 1863 after an enlistment with the
	43rd Ohio Infantry during the Civil War.  Returning to Lexington to marry Julia Culley in 1864, John Hiram took his bride back to White Mound to join his																																										Theodore Ralph Carpenter												Myron Miner Carpenter
	four brothers.  Eventually, many of the Carpenter clan moved south to Spring Green, Wisconsin.																																										1912												1923
