Although Bradford refers to Faith as his second wife, there is no record of his first. He married at Plymouth, 6 Jan 1634/5 Faith Clarke, dau. of Thurston Clarke. [MD 1:16 citing Bradford's List of Passengers: "Edward Doty, & Edward Litster the servants of mr Hopkins. Litster After he was at liberty, went to Virginia, & ther dyed.

There is some debate [TMG 1:575 citing TAG} that he may have been married only once to Mary Churchill.

She had had three husbands and survived the last one nearly thirty years. By her first husband, William Sherman, she had six children, Hannah, Elizabeth, William, Patience, Experience and Ebenezer. By the second husband, Israel Holmes, she had two children, Israel and John. By the third husband, Alexander2 Standish (Myles1), there were three children, Desire, Thomas and Ichabod. The births of these eleven children were all recorded at Marshfield. [Ante, 6: 21 and 7: 134.] The daughter Elizabeth Sherman died unmarried; Hannah Sherman married William Ring3 (Deborah2 Hopkins, Stephen1); Patience Sherman married Josiah Wormall and died before her mother; Experience Sherman married her step-brother, Myles3 Standish (Alexander2 Myles1); and the youngest daughter, Desire3 Standish, married Nathan Weston4 (Rebecca3 Soule, John2 George1) [MD 2:182 Marshfield VR, P. 6] William Sherman and Desire Doety (worn) ye 25 of december 1667 [MD 2:182 Marshfield VR, P.11] Israel Holmes and Desire Sherman were maryed ye 24 of November 1681 MD 2:180: Vital Records of Marshfield: Isaac m. Elizabeth England Joseph m. 1st Deborah Ellis, m. 2nd Widow Sarah Edwards Mary m. Samuel Hatch. [MD 5:113] It has been shown that Faith Phillips had a daughter Mary2 Doty (Edward1); that Samuel Hatch of Scituate had a wife Mary in 1679; and that, in 1680, he receipted for his wife's share of Faith Phillips' estate. It is therefore evident that Samuel Hatch married Mary2 Doty between 12/22 July, 1677, and 28 February /12 March, 1679/80. |
