  Father	Timothy GOTHAM,   b. Est 1632,   bur. 3 Dec 1703, St. John the Baptist Church, Marldon, Devon, England  (Age ~ 71 years)
  Mother	Katherine,   b. Est 1640,   d. Yes, date unknown
  Married	Katherine is named as Timothy's 'now wife' in indenture date 1682, Timothy could have been married more than once, and so ** Katherine was not necessarily the mother of all of his children. ** This wording could be more in case Timothy should remarry at a later date rather than imply an earlier wife, but even if so with no marriage date it is still quite possible Timothy had his children with more than one wife.
