MARRIAGE: Despite claims to the contrary, the identity of William1's wife (or wives) is unknown. His having emigrated only three months after the death of Alice Carpenter, who was buried at Shalbourne on 25 January 1637[/8], suggests that she had been his wife (though not necessarily William2's mother); it is possible, however, that she was an unmarried sister or daughter (TAG 70:194-95).
The William Carpenter who married Alice Swithen in St. Denys Church, parish of Warminster, Wiltshire, 14 January 160[4/]5, was probably not the eventual William1 of Shalbourne (see WarPaR 107).
... And ...
The foregoing discussion does not conclusively remove Alice Swithen from consideration as the wife of William1 of Shalbourne. It should be remembered, however, that his relationship to the Alice Carpenter buried there is uncertain. If for argument's sake we accept that she was his wife, the only evidence pointing toward her having been the former Alice Swithen is matching forenames; relative proximity of Shalbourne and Warminster (36–40 miles); and a marriage date compatible with the approximate birth year (1605) of William1 Carpenter's only known child (see CHILDREN section, below). This falls far short of the Genealogical Proof Standard (see BCG).
COMMENT: Over time there seems to be more leaning that she was the wife, but far from proven. JRC
