• Notes

  Source of Randall details: Wiliam R. Randall Web Page: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~randall Note: It is reported that Theo had such a violent temper and treated his family so badly when living in Michigan that during a trip his wife, Carolyn Emelia, in the dead of night called in some neighbors, loaded all the family belongings into wagons, put all the contents on a train and returned to Ohio never to see or speak of him a- gain. Following the departure of his family, Theodorus may have received his teaching credential at Oberlin College. On his return from a winter vacation in Florida, Theo had his pocket picked in Atlanta and was thrown off his train. He slept on a park bench, caught pneumonia and was taken, it is believed, to Wesley Hospital, where he died. His son, James Pemberton Randall was working for the railroad in Missouri and got a pass to go to Atlanta and claim the body. He was buried in Marietta National Cemetery (see Randall records) never to be spoken of again in the family circles.
