Deborah Ellis
General Notes: DEBORAH, b. about 1652; d. in Rochester 21 June 1711 (Rochester VR); m. about 1673-4 JOSEPH2 DOTEY, b. in Plymouth in April 1651, d. prob-ably in Rochester about 1732. An excellent article by Mrs. John E. Barclay, F.A.S.G., "Notes on the Dotey and Churchill Families" in The American Genealogist, vol. 36, p. 9-11, January 1960, sets forth her reasons for believing that the indirect evidence placing Joseph Dotey's wife here is convincing. In addition to the evidence which Mrs. Barclay so ably presents we add the fact that the eldest son, Theophilus3 Dotey, married Ruth2 Mendall, daughter of John1 Mendall, whom Mrs. Barclay calls "of Marshfield" (where he was born) we think that it was he who was living in Scippican in 1687 when the widow Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis was admonished to "leave a sufficient outlet for John Mendall into the common." [Lt. John & Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis of Sandwich, Mass by Lydia B. (Phinney) Brownson, of Duxbury, Mass & Maclean W. McLean, of Pittsburg, PA] Deborah married Joseph Doty, son of Pilgrim Edward Doty and Faith Clark, about 1674 in Sandwich, Barnstable, MA 5,37,65.,205 (Joseph Doty was born on 30 Apr 1651 in Plymouth, Plymouth, MA 5,29,34,37,199,200,202,203 and died about 1732 in Rochester, Plymouth, MA 5,29,37,200,204.) |
