Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Theodosia and her family:
Theodosia Van Derveer WILCOX was b. 1840 or 1841 to parents Charles WILCOX (1795-1851) and Julia Ann MERRILL (1803-1882) who were married 9 Mar 1831. She was one of 5 children born to this couple including Sarah E.; John Merrell; Nancy Eudora; Theodosia Van Derveer; and Oliver Cromwell WILCOX, all born between 1832 and 1845.
She lived in Three Mile Bay, NY and married twice, first to Orren Thatcher JOHNSON (1840-1905) in 1862 and they had a daughter, Jennie W. JOHNSON (1865-1891). Her second marriage was to Frederick E. HARBOTTLE (1845-1913) on 22 Jun 1885.
Theodosia died 20 Nov 1905 in Binghamton, NY and is buried in the Floral Park Cemetery in Johnson City, NY. Her husband Frederick was b. 1845 and married twice, first to Theodosia and second to Lucinda V. HARBOTTLE (1853-1930).

Good to know your aquaince my dear friend. I'm an UNKNOWN secret hidden away for 62 years my dear friend. I've only just discovered here recently that I'm a WILCOX. Yes quite startling isn't it. My biological father's name is JAMES HENRY WILCOX. BORN (AUGUST 9th 1936) HIS OBITUARY SAYS I AM THE ONLY SON BORN TO HIM, BORN BY HIM. My mother never put his name on birth Certificate. It was left UNKNOWN on (ORIGINAL AT LIVE BIRTH) BIRTH CERTIFICATE. I heard stories from my adopted mother things I didn't know or even undustand at that young life. I was being molded and shaped to be a loiman. My adopted side names. ADOPTED FATHER: James Howard Looman SR
James Howard Looman JR
THEN ADOPTED CHANGED ME FROM: JAMES HOWARD SUTTON (TO)
JAMES HOWARD LOOMAN III
I was always told that I was a Looman. The kidnapped me back an forth several times then Kitty my Mother gives us up me and three sisters. By the way my sister's know who there Dad's are but I was lied to believe my oldest sisters Dad's. Not so. Then about 10 years ago James Howard Looman Jr calls me up and says that he was not my father. So after much worry and KNOWING that I saw the Original AT LIVE BIRTH CERTIFICATE. THIS little secret I carried around like a huge weight I was to young to really understand. So after my wife bought me the ancestry kit. I know now I'm not a Looman. My Question where did they get the JAMES HOWARD from. This was very well put together. With all the convincing me I'm a Looman. I really never any way. I don't even look like them. I don't have Indian blood in me they do. There mother was a pure Blackfoot Indian. Her husband white German Looman. I went to put my DNA matches up and get started on my tree. So I went looking to see if I could find my Grandmother MARGARET (something) she had 3 husbands. She told me a similar story about my grand father. Really never knew his name until recently. I did fiund out my Mother's side her mom's dad is JAMES H. KOONTZ one of my grandfather's. His wife and so on. The I started working on the other side. My mother's father's side. Well his name tuned out to be JAMES HENRY WILCOX. The grandfather of mine the father of Kitty MY Mother. My Grandmother's Husband and my father. The Kicker here is it's not kitty's my Mother's name at my birth. Her name is SUTTON My last name at birth. She was a (seragate) Mother. Back then as we know it was hush hush back then. Money was transferred then however paid the price later when deals went sour. This is really an interesting twist. When she found out what he really had. She wanted more. She was called a lier from both sides of family. She was dissted from her own family and court records and stories how she tries to abort me when she s couldn't get her way then after my dirth she would not hand me over to my biological Father with our a family blow up. There had been several really serious ones that's best left alone if the rhrets I found out to certain people or things happened. I look back now with all the pieces put together and see what my Grandmother said your to your to take control of what my Grandfather left me including a hidden photo album that my Grandmother explained 13 years from a private Service taking pictures of me and securing something I couldn't understand how much my Grandpa laved me that he left me some things that would take care of me the rest of my life here in earth. I never knew the extent of the album and letter at that time. Never would have if it had not been for my wife getting me that Ancestry Kit for DNA. I'm not sure what to do with my Grandfather information I have found. I would like to have help putting together a tree for my generations to come to let them know who they are and there history for them. I'm here at this number if any body would like to reach out to me. It's been a pretty lonely life trying to find my self and my roots. Many nights id just fall to sleep with the thoughts of Who AM I. It became a daily routine for my then years past but the now I discover his life is gone. I would love to recover things from my Dad's life, pictures, photo albums full of everything for me and I don't know where to look after my Grandmother passed away. He passed away I found out the 1st of October 1996. I've cried for days now. I would very much reach out to my WILCOX family but don't know where to start. IF SOMEONE CAN GET IN TOUCH WIT ME AGAIN MY NUMBER IS. 1-214-817-7161 MY NAME IS JAMES OR JIM.
THANK YOU SO MU CH FOR READING THIS

GOD Bless and MERRY CHRISTMAS
