Theodosia Johnson
unknown - October 1832
Fairfield Mission by; Carolyn Thomas Foreman.
Sarah Tuttle, Conversations on the Missions to the Arkansas Cherokees.
There were two Osage girls in Dr. Palmer's family, who moved from Mulberry to Fairfield with him; but in October, 1832, one of them named Theodosia Johnston (Johnson) died, aged eleven years.
The whooping cough entered the family and school, and occasioned the death of several children, among them Theodosia, the poor little (Osage) outcast orphan.
Notes state that the other Osage child was Jerusha Palmer who was one year old in 1828.
There is a head and foot stone to the north of Theodosia grave, it could be one of the children mentioned within.
Her stone is weather worn and unreadable. I had to do a rub to collect the information.
