NOTE: Martin Scharpentier arrived in America to the port of New York on the ship, Juffraw Johanna, 16 Oct 1821 having left the port of Amsterdam. He came with his wife, Maria Werner, aged 35. He was 45 or 48 (entry blurred) and they came with three sons Johan or John S Carpenter aged 1 year and 6 months. This would indicate he was born in May not Mar 1820 not 1821. The first two sons were listed as Jacob, age 11 and Lorents, age 17 years. Pennsylvania family tradition indicates these last two sons were born of a different and unknown mother.
