    "Two facts show that Samuel3 and John3 Miles died young. First, they were not named in the wills of their maternal grandparents, Francis and Katherine Dowse. Secondly, there is a settlement recorded at New Haven (New Haven Deeds, 1:179), dated 8 Oct. 1683, which proves conclusively that Samuel2 Miles's eldest surviving son was Samuel, the son of his second marriage."

  3. ↑ The suggestion that Samuel Miles and his first wife, Elizabeth Dowse, divorced is, according to the 1959 Coddington article, not true. He examines the sources of that suggestion in detail explaining why neither of the two theories concerning a remarriage by this Elizabeth Dowse is true.
