Biography

Catherine (Bean) Dolloff is a member of Clan MacBean.

Catherine was the youngest child of John (MacBean) Bean, of Exeter, and his second wife (his first wife, having passed away)

Catherine Bean married circa 1700, in Exeter, New Hampshire to Richard Dolloff (born after 1665, died circa 1744) son of Christian and Sarah (Scammon) Dolloff

Richard's will, in which he mentioned Catherine, was dated April 4, 1744, and is found in the State Papers of N.H., published by Metcalf, Probate Records, Vol III, p. 198.

Catherine and Richard lived on the next farm from her father. Their first child was born circa 1700, prematurely, and died without a name.

On July 22, 1710, three daughters of Catherine and Richard; Sarah (b. 1702), Margaret (b. 1704), and Abigail (b. 1706) were kidnapped by Canadian Indians and carried away to Quebec. They were in captivity for seven years before the younger two were ransomed and return home.

The oldest girl, Sarah, was married to an Indian before this and was not returned. Many years later, she became homesick for her family and returned to Exeter with her husband and five children, with the hope that they could live there. It did not work out, and the family returned to Canada.

Catherine and Richard had six other children:

John Dolloff, b April 20, 1708; Jonathan Dolloff, born October 17, 1710; David Dolloff, Ebenezer Dolloff, (married Jean Norkun of Birmingham, MI), Ann Dolloff
