About Katherine Graves
Katherine was the wife of Rear Admiral Thomas Graves. She was born before 1605. Thomas came to this Country, with Governor Winthrop in 1630, having command of the "Talbot" the vice-admiral of the fleet.

Winthrop's fleet consisted of eleven vessels, having on board about seven hundred people, two hundred and forty cows, and sixty horses. They sailed from Cowes on April 8, 1630, and after a stormy voyage, four vessels, the Arabella with Winthrop on board, the Talbot, the Ambrose, and the Jewel, reached Salem, on June 12. By July 8, all the vessels had arrived. Not liking the vicinity of Salem, they soon left for Boston and distributed themselves in Charlestown, Watertown, etc. Thomas Graves settled in Charlestown. He made seven voyages to England, afterward commanding the "Trial" the first large vessel built in Boston, in her long voyages to Bilbo and Malaga. He died on July 31, 1652. Their daughter Rebecca married Samuel Adams. (Pg 38). The long line of ledges outside of Boston Harbor, called "The Graves" was named for him.
