Biography

Jane (Unknown) Boatman was born in England.

Jane (Unknown) Boatman migrated from England to Virginia.

Jane was from England and had first married Mr. Garrard.^[1] After his death, she married Bengamin Doggett on 21 Sep 1664.^[2][3][4] She is described as being young when she married Benjamin so we can be confident that she was born between 1636 and 1644.^[4]

Jane and Benjamin had seven children. Benjamin died circa 1682/3 and Jane later married John Boatman.^[5]

Research Notes

There are some some family trees that claim GARRARD is the maiden name of Jane and that her parents are Edward and Jane (Luson) Garrard. None of these trees has any source for such an assertion but this is something that ought to be examined in the hopes that it can be confirmed or denied.^[6] It would also be grand were one able to confirm that there was or was not a first marriage to a Mr. Garrard and, if so, the first name and any other particulars of that man.

There are two other profiles that are or have been linked as daughter of Edward and Jane Garrad: Garrard-30 and :Garrad-29. Requests to merge these two have been rejected although it does appear they are the duplicates. Likewise, there have been requests to merge Garrad-29 with this profile and this has also been rejected. It might be tempting for some to believe all three represent the same person, it is also possible that they are two or three unique persons. The case of Garrad-29 is interesting in that the link to the parents was removed and data from the marriage Benjamin Doggett to Jane (Unknown) Garrard.
