• Notes

  Married: Mary's eldest brother, Matthew Cartwright, wrote his uncle about the impending marriage of his sister, Mary "Polly," now nineteen, to 'a Respectable citizen.' (Henson and Parmelee, p. 62) John Cartwright gave his daughter two slaves as a wedding present, just as his father had done for John's sisters. (ibid, p. 62).
