Parts of a diary, or journal, kept by his mother, Mrs. Carpenter, covering the [18] sixties, and early seventies, are in the possession of the family, and some of these events were taken from it.... She wrote often of her seven little boys: Willy, Gippy, Johnny and Jeffy, Bobby, Bennie and Eddie. Johnny was a farmer and he acquired a fortune in farm and ranch properties. he also invested in banking and other enterprises. He married Ida Coker, and they raised ten fine children to maturity....
