Guardianship Bond from Highland County, Ohio dated 10 March 1840

noting Ephraim Adams & John Thompson as executors of John Carpenter's estate over the sum of $400 and appointing Ephraim Adams as guardian over [Elizabeth] Jane, Catherine, Daniel and John Carpenter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<![if !vml]><![endif]>This is on the middle of the back of the above guarianship bond.

 

The first two lines “Carpenter Heirs / Guardian Bond” are in the same handwriting as the front of the document.

The remaining lines are in a distinctly different handwriting.

It is unknown as to when those line were added.

This could indicate that the $400 came from Isaac Carpenter.

However, it could also mean that the writer misinterpreted the last two words on line 11 of the above document to be “Isaac Carpenter.”  When compared to the two words at the start of line 11, i.e. “John Carpenter,” it is clear that those last two words on line 11 are “John Carpenter.”
