Biography

James was born about 1624 in England, He is probably not the son of Edward Doty as Edward came to the colony as a youth. (So, his children would have been born in the new world.) (Consider: Edward Doty (Father) and Winifred Warner (Mother).)

According to Deane, he "was early in this town [Scituate], having married Lydia, daughter of Humphrey Turner 15 Aug. 1649.[1][2][3] They had between 1650 and 1670 the following children:[1]

  1. Mary, b 23 Jun 1650 Scituate[4]
  2. James, b 21 Feb 1651/2 Scituate[5]
  3. Elizabeth, b 5 Nov 1654 Scituate[5]
  4. Martha, bapt 12 Apr 1657 Scituate[5]
  5. Lydia, b 14 Feb 1658/9 Scituate[5]
  6. Sarah, b 2 Apr 1662 Scituate[5]
  7. Samuel, b 29 Sep 1664 Scituate[5]
  8. Robert, b 14 Feb 1667/8 Scituate[5]
  9. Susanna, b 15 Feb 1670/1 Scituate [5]

He was a soldier in Philip's war, and 1678, was paid by the Town for nine week's campaign in 1676. This family may have removed to Connecticut." [1]

Disputed parents

The claim by Frank A. Randall, Randall and Allied Families, (Chicago, 1943, p. 4), that the James Doty who married Lydia Turner was a son of Edward Doty of the Mayflower is clearly invalid. He did not share in Edward Doty's estate even though he was living at that time.[6]

There is no evidence that the Mayflower Edward Doty married Winifred Warner in England or in Plymouth Colony. There is no evidence that the Mayflower Edward Doty had a son named James, no mention in his will or in Faith Clark's documentation. I have removed the Mayflower Edward Doty and Winifred Warner as parents of this James Doty, in accordance with the Mayflower Project guidelines.
