52 Ancestors - Week 142: #187 Elizabeth (Carpenter) Hazard (1741-????)

Amy Johnson Crow suggested a weekly blog theme of "52 Ancestors" in her blog post Challenge:  52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks on the No Story Too Small blog.  I am extending this theme in 2016 to 156 Ancestors in 156 Weeks. Here is my ancestor biography for week #142:

Elizabeth Carpenter (1741-????)  is #187 on my Ahnentafel list, my 5th great-grandmother, who married #186 Stephen Hazard (1730-1804) in about 1760.

4)  NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):

Information about the Carpenter family in South Kingstown, Rhode Island was obtained from the book:

 Amos B. Carpenter, A Genealogical History of the Rehoboth Branch of the Carpenter Family in America (Amherst, Mass. : Press of Carpenter & Morehouse, 1898).  Daniel Carpenter's family members are on page 141.[1]

The birth record in the South Kingstown, Rhode Island town records indicate that Elizabeth Carpenter was born 2 October 1741 to Daniel and Renewed (Smith) Carpenter[3].  She was their fourth child and second daughter of twelve children.

The Hazard family book notes that Stephen Hazard "...married, about 1760, Elizabeth, daughter of Daniel and Renewed (Smith) Carpenter."  According to the Hazard book, Stephen and Elizabeth (Carpenter) Hazard had at least six children, and maybe more, between 1760 and 1773 in South Kingstown[2].  There are, apparently, no records for their births available.

The death date and place of the death and burial of Elizabeth (Carpenter) Hazard is not known.  She may have died after 1800 when she was probably enumerated with her husband in South Kingstown, Rhode Island in the 1800 United States Census.

Perhaps in your first sentence, Elizabeth is 5th great-grandmother rather than grandfather?

Well, the editor failed again. He works for free, you know. He made a misteak yesterday too. Fixed it. Thanks.
