We don't know who her parents were. Family lore suggests she was of Dutch descent and had a brother who imported blue delftware from Holland as well as a sister who may have married a George Mortimore. Her father is said to have kept a hotel or tavern in the town. His name may have been Henry. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
