Hoyt Family Genealogy Forum
  
Looking for any references to the names Catherine Brown Hoyt, Catherine Hoyt, Kathryn Hoyt or Kathryn Brown Hoyt. Family history tells that in 1800 an amazing Cherokee woman was born who met the missionaries when she was 17. The missionaries were Hoyt's and Chamberlains's. They gave her the white man's name of Catherine Brown. To honor her, the Hoyt, Chamberlain and Lowr(e)y families have always had women named with one of these variations. I've seen it in my own lineage from Amory Nelson Chamberlain. My own name reflects this, Kathryn Elizabeth Johnston Martin, my daughter Laurel Kathryn Martin and my niece, Catherine Brown Johnston. Would love to know of other women in these families that have these names.
