Are you still looking for information on a carpenter? If so, this is something I came across.
Moses Allen, only child of Jabez and Hannah (Upham) Upham to reach mature years, was born in Troy, New York, June 9, 1820, died in that city, February 24, 1890. He learned the trade of carpenter with Henry Sage (brother of Russell Sage, the famous New York banker), beginning his apprenticeship immediately on completing his studies in the Eighth Ward public school. After finishing his years of service with Mr. Sage he worked as a journeyman for a time, then began contracting for the erection of buildings on his own account. He continued in business throughout the active years of his life, and became one of the leading contractors of the city. He built the Park Presbyterian Church, the Jewish Synagogue, and many of the noted public and private buildings of Troy.
