Research Notes:
From the Old Norfolk county records, it appears that she once indulged in a frolic which highly offended the stern Puritans: "Att ye Covnty Court held att Hampton Octobr ye 9th: 1677. Dorithie Hoyt beeing called in Court to answere her prsentment for putting on mans apparrell made default: being before warrant went out remoued out of ye Covnty. But her father who was ordered to bring her appeared in Court & owned ye fact committed by his daughter: hee wth others manifesting ye great appearance of ye sd Dorethies repentance vpon we ye sd John Hoyt her father desiering to fall vnder ye poenall part of ye sentence of Court for ye fact comitted. The sd Dorethie is adjudged by sd Court to bee apprhended as soone as shee comes into ye Covnty & be layd hold on & bee severly whipt vnless yt her father forthwith on her beehalfe pay a fine of forty shillings in corne or money to ye Treasurer of ye Covnty & costs." In this session of Court, "John Hoyt Jvnr" (her brother) was on the "Jurie of Tryalls" and "John Hoyt Senr" (her father) and William Barnes were members of the "Grand jurie." Whether the fine was paid is not known. [Ref: HoytDW HOYT p25]

1677: for her excapade of dressing up in men's clothes, the Puritan magistrates ordered her to be severly whipped. Her father, who doubtless connived her departure and escape, paid a fine of forty shillings in her behalf [Ref: Davis HARMON p58, Davis HARMON p58]
