EIGHTH GENERATION

63. Deborah Ellis was born about 1652 in Sandwich, Barnstable, MA.⁽⁹⁰⁾⁽²⁰⁾⁽²¹⁾⁽²²⁾⁽²⁹⁾ She died on 21 Jun 1711 in Rochester, Plymouth, MA.⁽¹⁹²⁾⁽¹⁹³⁾⁽²¹⁾⁽²²⁾⁽¹⁹⁴⁾⁽²⁹⁾

She was married to Joseph Doty (son of Pilgrim Edward Doty and Faith Clark) about 1674 in Sandwich, Barnstable, MA.⁽²¹⁾⁽²⁹⁾ Joseph Doty was born on 30 Apr 1651 in Plymouth, Plymouth, MA.⁽¹⁹⁵⁾⁽¹⁹⁶⁾⁽¹⁹⁷⁾⁽²¹⁾⁽²²⁾⁽¹⁹⁴⁾⁽²⁹⁾⁽¹⁰⁾ He died about 1732 in Rochester, Plymouth, MA.⁽⁶⁸⁾⁽²¹⁾⁽²²⁾⁽¹⁹⁴⁾⁽²⁹⁾ In several occasions we find Joseph Dotey mentioned with the widow Ellis and members of her family. We get the impression there is a relationship, and since he had a son named Ellis this provides strong circumstantial evidence that he married a daughter of John and Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis of Sandwich. This is further strengthened by the fact that Rochester Proprietor’s Records [1:68-9 and 2:63] show that Joseph Dotey "hath laid out to him 20 acres...this land is part of the 80-acre Division belonging to Elizabeth Ellis’ share," recorded 5 June 1706. [Dotey article, The American Genealogist (Jan 1960), 36:1] Deborah Ellis and Joseph Doty had the following children:
