Excerpt from De Carpentier Allied Ancestry: Ancestry of Maria De Carpentier, Wife of Paul Jaquet, Vice-Director and Chief Magistrate on the South River of New Netherland, 1655-1657 In all the foregoing illustrations the de Villers arms are placed in 1 and 4 quarters and the de Carpentier are placed in 2 and 3 quarters. Possibly, prominence was given to the de Villers arms on account of their distinction. Old seals of the de Carpentier family, attached to documents, were quartered in the same manner. Later the arms have been borne with de Carpentier placed in quarters 1 and 4 and de Villers in 2 and 3. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
