Lovicy Adelia Carpenter (maiden name: Pratt) was born on October 23, 1826, in Pennsylvania to John Pratt and Lydia Luther. Her father died around 1831.

They settled in Richmond, Pennsylvania, and her husband worked as a farmer. By 1860, they owned $3,000 of real estate and $600 of personal property. A decade later, they owned $6,000 of real estate and $1,820 of personal property. Her husband died on July 21, 1910, after fracturing his femur in a fall. She applied for a widow’s pension in September 1910 and eventually secured one. She died of cerebral arteriosclerosis in Richmond on February 17, 1913.
