Well, Randy, this is yet another line we share. Thanks for the info...I haven't seen those sources. For more info on Bethia Marsh, see American Genealogist, 1973, Vol 49:27-30. Have a great day!
Thanks again for the sources. It might be they, but WorldCat only indexes the Paul (1911) book with the title spelling Katherine as "Katharine."
