CONFLICT in name: Catheirne Hebden or Catherine Payne.

"Catherine Hebden was the daughter of Dr. Thomas Hebden and his wife Catherine. She was not named in her husband's will in 1673, so presumably she was deceased. Or said to be Catherine PAYNE."

"Adding to Norma's information re the possibility of Katherine Hebden being Katherine Paine before her marriage to Thomas Hebden, there is this:

Feb. 3, 1650. "I, Katherine Hebden, Widowe, doe Assigne over unto William Marshall the rights of 200 acres of land due viz: by Thomas Payne dec'd 100 acres and 100 acres of my patent. Witnes my hand. Katheren Hebden"
