Family Surname

The name "Caimot" cannot be found in the UK. In writing the name, the scribe probably wrote the name wrong. it is believe it to have been "GARMON" as this is a historic name (from Germanus of Auxerre) and a Capel Garmon is only a few miles north of Ysbyty Ifan, where Martha and John Hugh were married, ca. 1680[5]

Caimot-4 and Caimot-1 appear to represent the same person because: dates are similar, please add your sources for birth and death, so we can decide which dates to use. Thanks so much.

Caimot-3 and Caimot-1 appear to represent the same person because: same name, same husband, data on Caimot-1 is well sourced, see note on children, her birth could not have been in the New World and it is believed by ship records that she died at sea on the way to the New World.

As her son was born in Wales, she could not have been born in the New World. If you look at Caimot-1 you can see the documented history of this woman.
