• Notes

  The river now known as the Carmans River is said to have been named for Hannah Carman by her husband, William Smith, early in the 19th century. Prior to that time it was known as the Connecticut River. The Smith's claimed ownership of the river as part of the Patent of 1693 which established the Manor of St. George. Her father, Samuel Carman, and later her brother, operated prosperous mills at South Haven on the river.
