• Notes

  Her gravestone records her name as "Theodosie." Theodosie Carman, Samuel Carman Sr.'s daughter, was likely the same person as the Theodosia Smith recorded in the 1850 and 1860 censuses. She was living near to Samuel, Jr. (who would have been her brother), and she had property. She married a Seth Smith who by 1850 is deceased. (Seth Smith does not appear to have been of the "Tangier" Smith family of the Manor of St. George. Her sister, Hannah, did marry William Smith 'Tangier'.) "Mrs. Theodosie Smith" is buried in the Carman Family Cemetery in South Haven.
