• Notes

  Her gravestone records her name as Theodosi. Her daughter is recorded as "Theodosie." [There is some uncertainty on Theodosi's maiden name and therefore her ancestry. In addition to the carman.net source indicating "Latting," Stephanie Bigelow indicates her name to be "Homan" and that it is through the Homan family that Samuel came to be the proprietor of the South Haven mills. I have not been able, however, to yet find a Theodosi among the Homan's that could have been Samuel's wife. Smith and Hoff indicate her name was "Fish." All agree that her given name is "Theodosi(a)." Part of the uncertainty may be due to difficulties in her husband Samuel Carman's lineage. Or Bigelow may have confused the wife of Samuel Carman, Jr., who was a Homan (Catherine), with the wife of Samuel Carman, Sr.]
