    1. Searching for Catherine WATSON late 1700's
    2. Edwin Jones
    3. Hello WATSON researchers, It's been awhile since my last posting for my 3'rd gr grandmother Catherine WATSON. Catherine married Thomas ADAMS 12/16/1794 in Bourbon County, Ky. Some other family members believe Catherine was born 1773 somewhere in Md. I have a copy of the marriage bond which was signed by a Ralph ADAMS as being her guardian. This leads me to believe Ralph was probably related to this WATSON line but I haven't been able to find a connection. Some other researchers on this family suggest Hester WATSON was maybe Catherine's father. Of course there might be a mistake in spelling and Hester may have been Esther who could have been her mother rather than her father.I have found a Hester WATSON in Kent County, Md. as an execturer for John WATSON dated 5/4/1764. An Edward WATSON was also an execturer. Does anyone have any data regarding any of these WATSONS ? I have been searching for the parents of Catherine for the past 15 years & there are now at least a dozen other descendants now working on this search. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Ed Jones New Palestine, In.
