We have conflicting conclusions. No evidence points that the Carpenters of Culham were releated to the Rehoboth, MA USA Carpentes. Gene Zubrinsky's conclusions and refutation indicates that this section needs to be reviewed and possibily removed. If the Carpenters of Culham are not famous, notable or important to Culham, then this section should be removed. John R. Carpenter Jrcrin001 ( talk) 15:40, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Thank you. I took that section out and it appears here for review. John R. Carpenter Jrcrin001 ( talk) 20:50, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Records from Culham Manor of the late 1500s to the early 1600s, now in the Bodleian Library, show a William Carpenter senior and his son William Carpenter junior, who emigrated to Weymouth, Massachusetts, in 1638 and helped found Rehoboth, Massachusetts, in 1645. Eugene Cole Zubrinsky refutes this claimed connection between the Weymouth/Rehoboth Carpenters and those of Culham in his "William1 Carpenter of Newtown, Shalbourne, Wiltshire (Bevis, 1638)". [1]
Why keep the section that is wrong? Shouldn't it be removed? Enfermero ( talk) 07:33, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

The following statement, authored by Iwanafish, appears in the current (3 May 2009) version of this article: “Records from Culham Manor of the late 1500s to the early 1600s, now in the Bodleian Library, show a William Carpenter senior and his son William Carpenter junior, who emigrated to Weymouth, Massachusetts, in 1638 and helped found Rehoboth, Massachusetts, in 1645.” Without a word of discussion, Iwanafish has repeatedly deleted both an inserted reference to a source refuting his unsupported claim and a related external link. Iwanafish also goes by sock-puppet usernames 125.199.58.121 and 160.244.140.202.
From 1608 until at least late 1637, the Carpenters of Weymouth and Rehoboth had resided at Newtown, in the parish of Shalbourne, which straddled the Wiltshire–Berkshire line (Survey of Shalbourne Westcourt [c1610–1639/40], Savernake Estate Collection, ref. 9/24/460, p. 7, Wiltshire and Swindon Archives, Chippenham, England; Eugene Cole Zubrinsky, "The Family of William2 Carpenter of Rehoboth, Massachusetts, With the English Origin of the Rehoboth Carpenters,” The American Genealogist 70 [1995]:193–204, at 194–95; map of Shalbourne Parish). As will become apparent, the identification of the Culham Carpenters with those of Shalbourne, Weymouth, and Rehoboth is completely unjustified. Iwanafish is alone in making this claim, and he does so only in Wikipedia. This violates Wikipedia’s “no original research” policy.
In a Wikipedia article devoted to the Rehoboth Carpenter family, Iwanafish describes so-called William Carpenter Sr. (i.e., William1 Carpenter of Shalbourne, father of William2 Carpenter of Rehoboth [also formerly of Shalbourne]) as being from a “prosperous yeoman family” at Culham, where he “served as assessor of fines in the Culham Manor Court. Many pages of Latin records bearing his name are now in the Bodleian Library at Oxford.” Iwanafish ignores important evidence that his claims are false: Far from being the scholarly yeoman (land-owning farmer) who sat on a manorial court at Culham, William1 Carpenter of Shalbourne (35 miles distant) was an illiterate carpenter and husbandman (Shalbourne Vicarage Glebe Terrier, ref. D/5/10/2/8, Wiltshire and Swindon Archives [as Shalbourne church warden, Carpenter signed 1628 record by mark]; The New England Historical and Genealogical Register 14:336 [Bevis passenger list calls him carpenter]; Survey of Shalbourne Westcourt, 7 [he was a tenant farmer]).
A telling probate record puts the last nail in the coffin of the claim that the two immigrant William Carpenters, formerly of Shalbourne, were identical to a pair of same-named men of Culham. On 22 November 1636, William Carpenter of Culham was appointed to administer the estate of his son Thomas of London, whose will failed to name an executor (John Matthews and George F. Matthews, Abstracts of Probate Acts in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, 1635–1639 [London, 1903], 83 [digital image online at http://books.google.com]). By this time, William1 Carpenter and his only known son, the eventual William2 of Rehoboth, had been living at Shalbourne for twenty-eight years!
Finally, Rehoboth was not founded in 1645. The town was established as Seacunk in late 1643 (meetings held at Weymouth) and settled in 1644; it was incorporated as Rehoboth in 1645 (Rehoboth Town Meetings [and Vital Records], 1644–1673 [FHL film #562,558 (uncatalogued), item 4], 1:27, [29?], 31 [hereafter cited as RTM]; Leonard Bliss Jr., The History of Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts [Boston, 1836] 24–25, 31, 55). The earliest Rehoboth record naming William2 Carpenter is dated 10 1st month [March] 1644, when he was among fifty-eight original proprietors who drew lots for the first division “in the Neck” (RTM, 1:6; Rehoboth Proprietors’ Records, vols. 4A–5 [FHL film #550,005], 4A:5). The assignment of home-lots, of which no record survives, had presumably already occurred. GeneZub ( talk) 04:34, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Can I suggest that the section on "Rehoboth Carpenter Family" family is left out of the Culham article until the resolution of the edit war and/or accuracy determination has been decided at Rehoboth Carpenter family article. This is prevent lots of articles having various "disputed" etc. tags on them. -- MightyWarrior ( talk) 15:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Your repeated insertion of the baseless claim (see Disputed section, above) that the Carpenters of Shalbourne, Weymouth, and Rehoboth originated in Culham violates Wikipedia standards pertaining to factual accuracy, neutrality, original research, and unverified claims (see tags in Rehoboth Carpenter section above).
