I'd love to know what was so terrible about her. Maybe she had the nerve to enjoy life? Nah...... Surely we must be related somehow through these people, as mine were in Barnstable also and I think I have one or more Capt. John Gorhams in my line, he is mentioned in the footnote but no reason for his name is mentioned.
ReplyDeleteOne of the ways we're related is through Blanch's father-in-law Joseph Hull. Blanch got into trouble by allegedly harassing a neighbor woman to the point where she couldn't do her work. She also was accused of sexual misconduct several times. Then, of course, she ran away from her second husband's house.
