About Samuel Leete

https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Person:Catherine_Butler_%2814%29

” Her will shows that she must have had a Roberts husband, since she had three Roberts sons. Most printed sources give her name as Catherine or Katharine (Leete) Roberts. That of course is impossible, for she married Wetmore under the name of Leeke or Leete, and she would not have resumed her maiden name after having three Roberts sons. Her name at the time she married Wetmore must have been Leeke (or whatever the name is). Hence her maiden name is unknown; she married first a Roberts; she married second a Leeke [?]; and she married third, Thomas Wetmore. Her second husband probably did not long survive, for she had no children by him, though she was still young enough when she married Wetmore, an elderly man, to give him three children.”
