Notes

They were married in Wallingford, which is just west of Belmont (formerly Mechanicville) which is in the west side of Mount Holly township. There is a church still in Wallingford, as of late Oct 1996, which could have been where they were married. The Whites were living in the Belmont area, but it has not been determined where the Patches were living. There were some Patch families in the Ludlow area, just east of Mount Holly, township. Some of this White family lived in that area also, along with some unrelated White families.

Olivia was already a 7th generation descendant of Nicholas Patch who came from South Pertherton, England to Beverley, MA about 1630. Her mother was Philomela Lawrence and her 4th great-grandfather was John Lawrence, one of the original settlers of Groton, MA. The Lawrence line has been traced back to Sir Robert Lawrence of Ashton, Lancastershire, England, who was companion-in-arms to Richard the Lion Hearted during one of the Crusades. He was made a knight in 1191 for his bravery in scaling the walls of Acre. Many of Olivia's ancestors were among the earliest settlers of Groton, Chelmsford, Watertown, Rowley, Littleton, Andover and Haverhill, MA. Her father's mother, Mary Hazen, was the great, great, great grandaughter of John Nutting, who was killed in the Indian raid of 1667 at Groton, MA. He was one of the original settlers of Groton. The Hazens were early settlers of Rowley. The Lawrences were among the earliest settlers of Watertown before Groton. The Nuttings were early settlers of Chelmsford and then Groton. Some of their wives came from families of the earliest settlers of surrounding towns.
Olivia married Nathan Cate after Darwin's death, and received a Civil War Pension to support Darwin's 5 children until each was 18 years old. They continued to live in Auroraville, WI and both are buried in Pine Grove Cem, 1 mi NW of Auroraville.
Her birth record has not been found,.Her three brothers were all born at Groton, MA in 1808, 1810 and 1816; and her two sisters were born in Tyngsborough, MA in 1812 and 1814 according to the Groton Vital Records.
