John Carpenter, town clerk of London : ウィキペディア英語版
John Carpenter (town clerk)

John Carpenter, the younger (about 1372 – 1442), was a Town Clerk of London. He was elected as Town Clerk to the City of London during the reigns of Henry V and Henry VI. He was the author of the first book of English common law, called ''Liber Albus'' (the White Book). He was a member of the English Parliament from London in 1425. He is also recognized as the founder of the City of London School for boys.
He resided in the Parish of St. Peter, Cornhill, London, and was buried in the Abbey of St. Peter, Westminster, where his wife Katherine was later interred.〔Carpenter, Amos B. (1898) ''A Genealogical History of the Rehoboth Branch of the Carpenter Family in America''. Also known as the Carpenter Memorial, published 1898 by the Press of Carpenter & Morehouse, Amherst, MA, pp. 3-27. This book contains the will of John Carpenter and his wife Katherine along with sections of Thomas Brewer's 1856 work on John Carpenter.〕
He is frequently distinguished in historical documents as "John Carpenter, the younger," "John Carpenter, Junior," and as "John Carpenter, Jenkin." Jenkin or Jenken is a diminutive of the name John.〔This family had French Flemish ancestry in its names. Translations of Jean/Jehan/Jehannes became John in English. Jean & Jehan being the diminutive form became John the younger while some Jehans and all Jehannes became John the elder or rarely John the older. For more details see Jenkin.〕
John Carpenter was one of three men by that name who were prominent during the 15th century. Both others are mentioned in his will of 1442. One was his brother, John Carpenter the elder, who received much property from his younger brother.〔Douglas-Smith, A. E. (1965) ''The City of London School''. Oxford, England; 2nd Edition.〕
John Carpenter was the uncle to the other John Carpenter who was the Warden of St. Anthony's Hospital, Rector of St. Mary Magdalen's, and finally Bishop of Worcester. Bishop John Carpenter was willed, by the subject of this article, "that book on architecture which Master William Cleve gave me." Cleve was King's Chaplain and clerk of the works, and carried out building at the Palace of Westminster and the Tower.〔Douglas-Smith, A. E.: "The City of London School" Oxford, England, 1965, 2nd Edition.〕
==Early life & ancestry==
Thomas Brewer in his 1856 book on John Carpenter found no significant record of his life until his election as the Town Clerk or Common Clerk of the City of London on April 20, 1417, at about age 45. The exemption mentioned on page 14 suggests that John Carpenter had been in the City of London's service "from the time of his youth." It is assumed that he was apprenticed to John Marchaunt, his predecessor as Town Clerk.〔Brewer, Thomas (1856) ''Memoir of the Life and Times of John Carpenter, Town Clerk of London in the reigns of Henry Fifth and Sixth''. London〕 Based on ''Liber Albus'' (see below) and other works, he was familiar with the law.
Genealogical efforts have revealed a baptismal date of 18 Dec 1378 Hereford Cathedral, Hereford, England, but he was probably born earlier, with about 1372 being generally accepted. His father is listed as Richard Carpenter and his mother as Christina.〔''Carpenters' Encyclopedia of Carpenters'' 2009 DVD, which contains Carpenter Family genealogy by John R. Carpenter of La Mesa, California, USA. John the younger, the subject of the article is listed as RIN 0089.〕
His father, Richard or Renaud Carpenter, is believed to have been born about 1335–1337 in or of Grand Pont, Cambrai, France. He may have been alive as late as 1412 in London. He married Christina, last name unknown, who was of London. Their known children:
* John Carpenter, the elder, born circa 1362. The father of John Carpenter (bishop). His baptismal date of 20 Sept 1371 in Battlesden has not been confirmed and is probably wrong. His death date not known.
* Robert Carpenter, born circa 1368, of London. His brother's will indicates that he had a son named Richard and two daughters named Joan and Katherine.
* John Carpenter, the younger - the subject of this article.
His grandfather John or Jean Le Carpenter or Carpentier was born about 1303 of Le Grand Pont and died after 1345 in Dilwyne, Herefordshire, England. He married Jeanne Tabarie, who was born circa 1310 near Cambrai. His parents are disputed and are not listed in this article.
