• [S499] Harold Bowditch, The Bowditch Family of Salem, Massachusetts - A genealogical sketch prepared for distribution on the occasion of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Family Christmas Party (Boston, Massachusetts: privately printed, 1936).
  • [S504] Joseph Williamson, "Record of the Bowditch Family," New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Vol. 50 (October 1896), pp. 436-438. The information in this article on the very early generations of the Bowditch family, added to the article by Harrison Ellery, seems suspect, and does not agree with later work published in the NEHGR or by Harold Bowditch. However, the information on William Bowditch (c 1665-1728) and his children, especially on his son Joseph's family, seems reliable.

From ancestry.com. The surname appears to have originally been written as McGill, perhaps carelessly carryed over from the last entry in the previous household, then corrected by adding "man," but without deleting the "Mc." The following household (Littig) is the same as in the 1880 census, verifying that this is actually Catherine and Ellen Gilman.
