Details: Long-lived Pioneer Family. The Carpenter family came to Australia with a company of 280 persons in a 320-tonboat, away back in 1839. The longevity o f the family is somewhat unusual. James Foxwell Carpenter followed the occupation of a baker near Bristol prior to leaving England for Australia. Arrangements were complete for him, with his family, to migrate to the United States, but just before the time of sailing, his wife met with an accident which prevented their taking the journey - his brother and family going in their stead. In June, 1839, the Carpenter family, father , mother, and four sons, sailed by the Orestes, a sailing ship of 320 tons. There were 280passengers aboard. They arrived in Sydney late in November of the same year. On arrival Carpenter was engaged in Sydney by a squatter at Black Creek, beyond Maitland .To reach their new home they had to travel from Sydney to Morpeth by a small 70-tonsteam boat known as "Billy the Fourth then by bullock team about forty miles. After completing the term of engagement Carpenter started in business on his own account in an hotel in the same district - on the main road to the Liverpool Range. He remained there for about two years During that time his hotel was "stuck up" by the notorious Jew Boy bushrangers. Carpenter had about £100in notes on the premises, which his resourceful wife saved from the raiders bv rolling them up in her abundant hair. A little later he settled as a farmer on the Lower Hunter -wheat at that time being the principal crop raised - continuing so until the late fifties, when the rust and other pests put an end to wheat-growing on the Hunter. James Carpenter continued in general farming until his death in 1874. The accompanying photo is that of Carpenter's sons, who arrived in Sydney in 1839. The youngest was born on the voyage out. (The photograph was taken on the seventieth anniversary of their arrival.) The only remaining and youngest, member of the family is Tristan de Acunha Carpenter - so named by reason of the fact that he first saw the light whilst the Orestes was becalmed in the South Atlantic in sight of the island of Tristan de Acunha. Tristan, now over 91 years of age is standing on the right at the back. The other members are Thomas, who died in 1914, aged 88; Abraham, died 1920, aged 91:Henry, died 1919, aged 82: Edward, died 1923,aged 85. Tristan (father of the present writer) at the present time is living, hale and hearty, and well on towards his ninety-second birth-day. Until over 84 he was in the habit of cycling. Cycling at that age one day in Hunter-street, Newcastle, he was knocked down by a motor cycle, which caused a badly fractured leg. In a few weeks he had recovered from the accident. Then he met with another accident almost immediately. The same leg was again broken, but from this also he recovered after about six weeks hospital treatment. Surely his recovery from the shock of the fractures at his age was remarkable
