• Notes

  The pamphlet about the Watkins family said Susanna possessed a "meek and quiet spirit" which so beautifully adorned her life, as described by her newphew. He wrote of her being remembered with great veneration and affection by the older people, & records that to her husband and children she was of priceless value. Her admiring newphew said he regarded the really notable achievement of her life was that she caught a very fine beau and married him! Francis writes, "But if Mrs. Morton had been a woman of no marked and distinctive character, the alliance with Colonel Morton brought much honor to her name." Susannah died some years before her husband.
