If you will go here the birth certificate for Jennie Rebecca is online/printable:
http://genealogy.az.gov/http://genealogy.az.gov/
Her parents are given as William Carpenter of UT and Eliza Branham of SC.
At that same link, you will find birth records for siblings of Jennie; Eddie Albert and Bernice.
The 1920 census for the family shows:
Eden,Graham,AZ
Carpenter,William-43;born UT,father born DE,mother born US;farmer
wife-Eliza-31;born SC,parents born SC
son-Leland-17;born AZ,father born UT,mother born AZ
son-Albert- 8;born AZ,father born UT,mother born SC
daughter-Jennie-2;born AZ,father born UT,mother born SC
The son Leland was from the first marriage of William;
according to someone else's research on familysearch.org the first wife was Jennie Lenora Tyler,born in AZ;married William in 1901 in Eden. She died in 1906 in Thatcher.
In case it helps, at the same link above, there are birth records for three children of William Leland Carpenter,who married Inez Hancock. Leland apparently lived his entire life in the Eden/Thatcher area,and died there in Aug.of 1987.
William Carpenter was born Dec.8,1876 and died in Safford Aug.9,1958; Eliza Branham Carpenter was born Apr.8,1888 and died May 26,1958 in Phoenix. Both are buried in Thatcher Cemetery. (as is William's first wife)

You can email the Arizona State Library and Archives and request obits for William and Eliza,which may give further information on the family. If obits were printed, they will mail them toyou at no charge if you have not requested their help in the last 4 months:
