William Carpenter, son of the immigrant George Zimmerman-Carpenter, was born in 1775.In 1804 he married Margaret Wheelbarger. I know of two children but neither has any of the names you mentioned.William's oldest brother, George, who was probably born before 1745 married Eliza Boyer, daughter of Jacob Bowyer, before 1772.This family resided near Keezletown in what became Rockingham County, Virginia. The surname was anglicized at the time the American Revolution began.
