Although it's stated to be a former settlement neighborhood in Hayward, I haven't found any references in any Alameda County history books which I am aware of.
- See this 1935 map, which does not show Carpenter: https://www.davidrumsey.com/luna/servlet/detail/RUMSEY~8~1~247257~5515341:Alameda-County- The area described should be somewhere between Mt Eden and Decoto.—Naddruf (talk ~ contribs) 02:55, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

- Note According to this source it was a location on the railroad.----Pontificalibus 15:00, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
- Interesting, but maybe it was just a mill. The name suggests a connection. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:01, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- delete GNIS appears to have the topo quad as its source, which indeed has the name next to what is now the BART yard and presumably was in earlier times SP's yard in the area. I could not find a timetable which listed it however. Calling it a "community" is unwarranted and without any real description I can't see keeping it. Mangoe (talk) 20:45, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
