    "The name of Elifal Hatton, should be Stratton. She was the daughter of Gov. John Sandford of Newport, R.I., and Mrs. Elizabeth (Webb) [error for Bridget Hutchinson] his [second] wife, and was baptized in Boston, December 1637. She was not murdered by the Indians with Ann Hutchinson in 1643, at Pelham, N. Y., as Savage relates, but lived to be more than once publicly whipped with her stepmother [mother], Mrs. Bridget Phillips, and other Quakers for indulging in certain vagaries of opinion and doctrine not agreeable to the magistrates of Boston. (Drake's Hist. of Boston, p. 429.) Mrs. Stratton was the wife of Bartholomew Stratton, mariner, of Boston, and died in Portsmouth, R.I., where her death is recorded January 18, 1724."

    Henry Webb's will includes her (half) brothers John and Samuel Sanford, but not her. This indicates that she was not a daughter of Elizabeth (Webb) Sanford but of the elder John's second wife, Bridget Hutchinson.

    "Drake, Felt and other historians have strangely misread and published the name Eliphal as Elizabeth, Eliphalet, &c. Madam Eliphal Stratton, as well as her mother Madam Bridget (Hutchingson-Sanford) Phillips, was an early and persistent Quaker. Their names often appear among those who possessed the courage to avow their convictions."
