Person talk:Katherine Westcote (10)

History of the Jackson Family by Robbins [30 August 2013]

Per the copy on heritagequest.com, everything on p. 250 is 1884 or later. Neither Thomas Moore nor Katharine Westcott is listed in the index??? --Jrich 22:59, 30 August 2013 (EDT)

don't have access... [31 August 2013]

But I am intrigued by a snippet in Winthrop Papers Vol. 6, p. 205, footnote 1, which mentions "Katherine Warren Doxey, former servant of JW₂ and widow of Thomas Doxey." The following footnote makes some reference to Benedict Arnold's letter to JW₂ on Thomas Doxey's debts. The fourth footnote says Katherine Doxey married Daniel Lane, and further I seeth not (due to it being a snippet). The google search brings up a page of the index which indicates several mentions of Thomas and Katherine Doxey and their son and should be investigated. The letters would add authority: it is clear the editors (see footnote here) clearly think she was Katherine Warren, not Westcott/Westcote. --Jrich 00:33, 31 August 2013 (EDT)

For the basics of the theory, look for Kathryn Waring on this webpage. Still need to investigate Winthrop Papers. --Jrich 20:35, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
