I found a Joseph Carpenter, born in 1793 in Virginia living in Seneca, Monroe County, Ohio in the 1850 census. The 1850 census doesn't give relationships, but it lists with him:

Elizabeth  50  Pennsylvania
Louis         21
Elizabeth   19
Mary           17
Sarah         17
Alexander   11

Except for Elizabeth, all born in Ohio. There is also a John D. Carpenter, 30, in the next household, with:

Louisa   25
George   5
Nancy     4
Vincent   2
Elias       1

Again, all born in Ohio. Next household:

David   30
Catherine  19
Mary E   7/12

All in Ohio. Next household:

Vincent   34
Eleanor   20
Randolph 11
John        10
Elijah        8
Abel          2

All born in Ohio. Next household:

George     33
Jane          27
John          8
Joseph       6
William       1

Maybe Alexander is the youngest you are seeking. I will check the 1860 or 1870 census.

Joseph's wife Nancy died in 1844, how can I find out if and when Elizabeth and John married?

You can try this link:

Or try posting on genforum or rootsweb. If someone is going to the vital records office, or lives in Monroe County, they might be able to look something up for you. I have had help like that before.
