Joan, it is a small world! I wish I could figure out how Vincent Cato and Sophia are
connected with the Hortons. It makes total sense that she would be a Horton, but I
don't think she's sister to your Wm Ransom because of that settlement of Wm
Horton's estate, where she and her children are not listed.... at least that I have
found. So many places on the web Sophia is listed as part of this line, it makes me
wonder if I am missing something.
The family story is that Vincent Cato married his "cousin".
Thanks for writing, and if you come across anything hope you will let me know : )

I am a descendant of the William Horton you mention. His son
William Ransom Horton married Jane Ingram and they are my
3ggparents.
Small world, isn't it?

I'm trying to cut back. Now I only do genealogy
on days that end with a "Y."
