Notes for Theodosia (Spouse 1)
According to daughter Harriet’s tombstone Theodosia was Jewish and her husband’s, Joseph Garrow, mother was from East India.
The Garrows returned to England and the local paper reported that they were back in The Braddons by 4 July 1849. Charles Fisher had joined them by the 18th and stayed until after his mother's death.
“Theodosia Garrow's life after her daughter's marriage was not a happy one. Her elder daughter died suddenly from smallpox in Florence only seven months later and she herself was in her late 70s and becoming ill. The Garrows returned to England and the local paper reported that they were back in The Braddons by 4 July 1849. Charles Fisher had joined them by the 18th and stayed until after his mother's death. Tom and Theodosia, summoned from the Continent, were in Torquay before the end of August. On 3 October, Fanny Trollope wrote to Tom asking that he and his wife should visit her 'for a few weeks' and this has led to the assumption that Theodosia died in September, since it has been assumed that Fanny would only have written in this way after Theodosia's death. In fact, Theodosia Garrow died of 'Deranged Digestion, Abscess and Exhaustion' on 4 November. Her desire for Theo's constant presence, deplored by Tom's mother, would seem to contradict the belief that she had no love for her younger daughter. After her mother's death, Theo was advised by her doctor to move to a warmer climate and it was quickly agreed that Joseph Garrow should share a house in Italy with Theo, Tom and Fanny Trollope. By 5 December The Braddons was empty.”7026
