Female - 1692


Personal Information    |    Sources    |    Event Map    |    All    |    PDF

  • Name Katherine Hone  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] 
    • Robert Beverley's, "The History of Virginia, in four parts," states that Catherine Hone was from James City, Virginia.
    • A number of unexplored sources state or speculate that Katherine was the widow, not the daughter of Theophilus Hone. Care should be taken to follow up with this potential before continuing with this family line. Other sources that follow Theophilus Hone as husband of Katherine generally state that she was a sister of John Armistead.

      Here's just one such example:

      The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography
      Vol. IV., July, 1896, No. I

      "Major Theophilus Hone was a justice of Warwick county in 1652 He afterwards removed to Jamestown was Burgess for James City county in October 1666 and sheriff of James City county 1676 Prior to May 1672 he married the widow of William Richardson In 1675 Theophilus Hone Jr and Thomas Hone had a grant in James City county adjoining the land of Sir John Aytoun There is recorded at Essex Court house a deed dated Rappahannock county November 2 1686 from Christopher Wormeley Esq to Malachy Peale of Stafford conveying land which was granted to Thomas Hopkins in 1654 escheated and afterwards granted to Thomas Hopkins Hone gent by him conveyed to Justinian Aylmer and by Aylmer to his wife Frances now the wife of Christopher Wormeley In a pedigree of a family of Hone in the Visitation of Essex 1634 Hdrl Soc page 423 it is stated that Thomas Hone of Farnham 1634 married Judith daughter of Theophilus Aylmer Archdeacon of London and had issue William Thomas Theophilus Edward and Elizabeth all alive 1634 It can hardly be doubted that this was the family of the Hones of Virginia It has been stated that the second wife of Major Robert Beverley of Middlesex was Catherine daughter of Theophilus Hone but as the parish register states that he and Madam Katherine Hone were married in Gloster March 28 1689 [1689 is a misprint in the VMHB Article, the actual year was 1679 and was recorded in the Christ Church Parish Register, Middlesex County, Virginia which is attached to the marriage of Robert and Katherine in this database] it is probable that she was Major Hone's widow and as Beverley in his will speaks of his brother in law Colonel John Armistead of Gloucester it is probable she was an Armistead."
