About Katherine Salmon

Biography

Katherine was married to Matthew Sinderland[1] in Massachusetts about 1639. Matthew was a sailor, and he died about 1642, leaving no issue. Katherine then married William Salmon (1613-1657) about 1643. Katherine died about 1650 and William remarried to (2nd) Sarah, daughter of Barnabas Horton of Southold.[2]

Children of Katherine and William Salmon:

  1. Mary (Salmon) Whittier,
  2. John Salmon,
  3. Sarah (Salmon) Curtis and
  4. Rebecca (Salmon) Reeves

Disputed Origins

Because a guardianship document by William Salmon's children refers to Thomas Curtis as William's "brother-in-law", some sources believe Katherine was a sister of Thomas. However, others hypothesize that Thomas' wife, Elizabeth, was instead a sister of William. Or, Katherine and Elizabeth could have been sisters from a third family. The question has never been settled.[3] See also: G2G: "What is the evidence for the LNAB of Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Curtis of Weathersfield, Conn.?" <link>
