    WEED, Caroline (née Carpenter) (1838-1909) and Eber (1841-1913)

    Caroline Carpenter became a Sabbathkeeper in 1856 and was a close friend of Mary Loughborough's. She appeared to have worked for a time at the Review office in Battle Creek, Michigan, before her marriage to Eber Weed in 1865. He had recently been mustered out of the 13th Michigan Infantry, in which he fought during the closing months of the Civil War. Eber Weed subsequently became a lifelong church member and was ordained as an elder.1EGWLM 902.1

    Ellen White made several mentions of “Carrie” Carpenter in her correspondence, most extensively in a letter to John and Mary Loughborough in 1860. This letter showed concern at the direction Carrie's life was taking and counseled Mary on her relationship with Carrie.1EGWLM 902.2
