Notes |
- Katherine's second husband, William Larned Marcy was the son of Samuel Marcy, who was killed in 1862, while serving as the Captain of the USS Vincennes in Admiral Farragut's Blocade Squadron. His grandfather was five times Governor of New York.
William worked as a cowpuncher in the west and a druggist in Annapolis. He was the first Chairman of the State Roads Commission and was responsible for Maryland's good roads in the 1920's. He had the ability to tell the most outrageous tales (for that time) in mixed company. In about 1922, he taught "Social Hygiene" to the high school senior class of boys and girls, which caused quite a flap in town.
