Notes:

In the spring of 1837 the banks of the Fox River were overflowing with floodwaters. The farm family of Charles V. Carpenter from Uxbridge, Massachusetts could travel no further. The long journey started months before using oxen to pull carts.
Their destination was the Rock River. Accompanying Charles was his brother Daniel C. Carpenter, his wife and his ten (10) year old son Julio.
It wasn't long before these thrifty New Englanders began to visualize the opportunities that stretched before them. The narrow green valley of rich acres sprawling with black walnut trees and abundant water from the Fox River kindled the
imagination of these settlers and they named the area Carpenter's Grove.
This area soon became a thriving logging industry with the river providing power for the machinery used for the industry. The Carpenters remained here and in the fall built their first farmhouse in the north section of town, later to be known
as "Old Town", on the east bank of the river.
In 1840 Joseph Carpenter, the brother of Charles, also settled on this land. Here is where Angelo would grow into manhood. He obtained a quarter interest in his father's first investment, a carding mill and cloth-dressing mill. Angelo assumed
management position in 1850 and soon became sole owner.
By July of 1851 Angelo platted and surveyed the village and he changed the name to Carpentersville. Angelo also constructed a bridge at his own expense. The bridge was much needed to the six hundred (600) or so people living or working on each
side of the river. Before the age of thirty (30), Angelo had all rights to river privileges. He married his sweetheart Mary Edwards in 1852.
In 1853 a man named George Marshall opened a shop that manufactured and repaired reapers. By 1864 he acquired two (2) partners and a stock company was formed and incorporated. This later became the Illinois Iron & Bolt Company.
Through the years of 1855 and 1871 Angelo Carpenter had many accomplishments. A two (2) story school was built along with a planning mill, post office and Valley Woolen Mills. He also gained a financial interest in the Illinois Iron & Bolt
Company. In 1868 Angelo founded Star Manufacturing. During this time Angelo controlled and limited the sale of intoxicating liquors within the village limits. The Carpenter family never sold a piece of land without a clause in the contract that
forbids the sale of liquor.

_____________

From FindaGrave:

He was one of four brothers (Samuel Judson Hall, George Washington Hall, Stephen Carpenter Hall, and John Dillon Hall) who served with the 25th Massachusetts during the Civil War.

There are two listings for Samuel Hall with the same plot no. 1338. He was wounded at the Battle of Roanoke Island, NC on Feb 8, 1862 and died of those injuries on Mar 5, 1862. The U.S. Archives confirms the date of death on the second listing you have. The following is a letter and some notes concerning a letter his brother Stephen Carpenter Hall wrote home during the war.

Samuel Judson Hall was a soldier with the 25th Massachusetts Infantry. He mustered in on 14 Oct 1861 in Mendon, MA with Company C. He was wounded in battle on 8 Feb 1862 on Roanoke Island, NC and died 5 Mar 1862 on Roanoke Island, NC. This information is in accordance with the Adjutant General's Office Memorandum, Washington, August 2, 1867. The ship that brought the 25th to Roanoke Island was the New York.

According to New Bern National Cemetery Records, however, his date of death was 15 Feb 1862.

According to the letter that his brother Stephen Carpenter Hall wrote home to his sister-in-law, Rachel Marion (Daniels) Hall, his brother William's wife, it is assumed that the date of 15 Feb 1862 is in error. Stephen states he saw Samuel quite often while he was sick. Seven days (8 Feb 1862 when he was wounded to 15 Feb 1862 when NPS said he died) is not enough time to warrant such a statement.

The following is an excerpt from a letter written by Stephen Carpenter Hall dated 26 May 1862 to his sister-in-law (sister, he writes) Marion (Rachel Marion Hall, wife of William Henry Hall, Stephen's and Samuel's oldest brother):

"You spoke about Sam. As John took care of him he knew more about him than I do (did), but he had the nerve of being as brave as any of us. They said that when he fell they returned to help him off. He told them to never mind him, but go ahead and give it to them. I saw him quite often while he was sick. He always seemed in very good spirits and I was in hopes he would get well. Poor fellow, he must have suffered a great deal."

From FindaGrave:

Stephen Carpenter Hall was a Civil War soldier in the Union Army.  His name can be found on the Civil War Monument in the center of East Douglas.

Stephen Carpenter Hall wrote a letter home dated 26 May 1862 to his brother William Hall's wife, Marion.  At the time, Stephen Carpenter Hall was a member of Burnside's Coast Division, 25th Regiment, Massachusetts Volunteers at Camp Bullock.
The letter reads:

"Dear Sister,

I am seated to answer your letter after so long I had almost forgotten all about your letter.  I have had a good deal of guard duty to do since I receive your letter and you know that I hate to write as bad as I would to eat a good meal of vitals.  Well we are encamp about eleven miles from Newbern doing picket duty.  We have to go on once in three days.  It would be quite pleasant if it was not for the rain.  It rains about every day.  You spoke about Sam.  As John took care of him he knows more about him than I do, but he had the nerve of being as brave as any of us.  They said that when he fell they returned to help him off.  He told them to never mind him, but go ahead and give it to them.  I saw him quite often while he was sick.  He always seemed in very good spirits and I was in hopes he would get well.  Poor fellow, he must have suffered a great deal.  I received a letter from George the other day.  He said that he had heard that John had been wounded, but it is not so.  Well we have a good time.  It is very warm here.  The mosquitoes and ticks are very thick.  John sends his love to you all.  Well give my love to Susan and keep a good share of it yourself and William.  Well, good bye.

                                       from your brother
                                                       Stephen Hall
