• Notes

  She is called "of Huntington" in the record of her marriage to Silas Pearsall, and indeed a Ketcham/Kicham family was prominent in that town from the later 1600s on, but her exact parentage is unknown. See O. B. Ackerly, "Genealogical Data Found in the Printed Records of the Town of Huntington, Long Island, N.Y." New York Genealogical and Biographical Record 50:72, January 1919.
