  	One source suggested "Catherine (Katy) Homan B. 1795/6 and d. 24 Jan. 1861. She is said to be daughter of Mordecai (B. 1757) and Charity (Howell) Homan. She married Samuel Carman, 2nd (B. 1789 d. 27 Feb. 1869. Ref: Presbyterian Church Records Setauket. Their house was at Squassuy (sic), Carmans River Landing in Brookhaven." There was a comment after the above that says "Are you sure Katy , wife of Samuel Carmen was dau of Mordecai? I understood her to be dau of Joseph and sister of Oliver who were buried in Hawkins grave yard in Yaphank." The question was by the former Brookhaven Town Historian Osborne Shaw.

  Notes	[That Catherine Homan was a child of Joseph Homan and Elizabeth Hawkins was from Byrnes, and is no doubt based on Edna Valentine Bruce's intimate knowledge of both the Homan and Carman families of Brookhaven and South Haven hamlets. However, she was not thus recorded in other compilations. But there are other variations among different compilations.]
