• Notes

  Some researchers suggest his birthdate as 20 Jul 1743 without sources. This date would be in disagreement with his gravestone. According to the author of "The Descendents of Samuel Carman" at http://www.carman.net: "Tracking the line of Samuel Carman has been an interesting puzzle. Mostly because of the wrong information that has been printed over the years. "Werner's 'Genealogies of Long Island Families' lists Samuel of the fourth generation and as brother of Silas Carman, when he is actually of the sixth generation, a son of Silas and even mentioned in Silas's will. Additional information abouthis line printed in 'The Family of Richard Smith of Smithtown, Long Island: Ten Generations' is contradicted by family group sheets prepared by two different grandchildren of Samuel in the 1880s. It is hard to believe that a man who was so influential in his time, cannot be better traced. "He was probably a Loyalist, as his name appears next to Silas in the list of those who wished to show their loyalty to George III in Onkerdonk's 'Revolutionary Incidents of Queens County, L.I.'"
