In several occasions we find Joseph Dotey mentioned with the widow Ellis and members of her family. We get the impression there is a relationship, and since he had a son named Ellis this provides strong circumstantial evidence that he married a daughter of John and Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis of Sandwich. This is further strengthened by the fact that Rochester Proprietorâ[euro][trademark]s Records [1:68-9 and 2:63] show that Joseph Dotey hath laid out to him 20 acres...this land is part of the 80-acre Division belonging to Elizabeth Ellisâ[euro][trademark] share, recorded 5 June 1706. [Dotey article, The American Genealogist (Jan 1960), 36:1] Accused of fathering her child by Elizabeth Warren, 27 Oct., 1674 On 27 Oct., 1674, Eliz. Warren, daughter of Nathan and Sarah (Walker), Warren, and granddaughter of Richard Warren, accused Joseph Doty in court of fathering her unborn child. He was placed under bond to appear at the next court in March to make further answer respecting the same. However, no further record of the matter appears in the court records. In his later life he brought suits against his sons for not providing for their father and mother.
DEBORAH, b. about 1652; d. in Rochester 21 June 1711 (Rochester VR); m. about 1673-4 JOSEPH2 DOTEY, b. in Plymouth in April 1651, d. prob-ably in Rochester about 1732. An excellent article by Mrs. John E. Barclay, F.A.S.G., Notes on the Dotey and Churchill Families in The American Genealogist, vol. 36, p. 9-11, January 1960, sets forth her reasons for believing that the indirect evidence placing Joseph Dotey's wife here is convincing. In addition to the evidence which Mrs. Barclay so ably presents we add the fact that the eldest son, Theophilus3 Dotey, married Ruth2 Mendall, daughter of John1 Mendall, whom Mrs. Barclay calls of Marshfield (where he was born) we think that it was he who was living in Scippican in 1687 when the widow Elizabeth (Freeman) Ellis was admonished to leave a sufficient outlet for John Mendall into the common.
