Karon cited:
"The ear mark of NICHOLAS CATLETT Sonne of NICHOLAS CATLETT his Cattel
being a Cow Calf having a cropp and a hole in each eare and an under
keele in the right all the female increase be to him andand his heirs."
Nicholas has a son named Nicholas. And in 1672 (1 Jul if "primo" means
one (1)), Nicholas with the CATTLE is old enough to register the mark
he's using on his cow "calf".
What has been your thoughts on Stubbs' comment that Francis MERIWETHER, with
his wife, Mary Bathurst, made a deed to David, "son and only heir of
Nicholas Catlett," on Aug. 10, 1696 (Essex Records)?
Of course, his comment does not quote "ONLY son and only heir", and can
"only heir" rule out that Nicholas had other sons (i.e., a Nicholas)?
