I'm still a little suspicious. I saw one reference to the word "geodet" in the 1945 ACSM Surveying and Mapping journal. But they put the word in quotes and used it in the context of the surveying party, not the instrument.
Sorry about the old link, I thought the posting program automatically quoted the post I replied to.
