No family suffered more than John Catlin's in the destruction of Deerfield, Massachusetts during the Indian Massacre of 29 February, 1703/4. He was killed trying to protect his home. His sons Joseph and Jonathan were also killed. His married daughters Mary French and Elizabeth Catlin Corse were killed during the subsequent march to Canada. His wife, Mary, "being held with the other prisoners in John Sheldon's house, gave a cup of water to a young French officer who was dying. He was perhaps a brother of Hertel de Rouville. May it not have been gratitude for this act that she was left behind when the order came to march? She died of grief a few weeks later."

On Feb 29 1704, Deerfield had 41 houses with 291 people. Of these, 20 were soldiers. That night Sieur Hertel de Rouxville with 200 soldiers and 142 Abenaki and Caughnawaga Indians managed to scale the stockade on snowdrifts while the sentry slept. The sentry awoke and gave the alarm before all the houses had been surrounded, which undoubtedly saved some of the village. 165 persons were killed or captured and only 126 were left. The following day some of the survivors, reinforced by a small company from Hatfield under Captain Wells, pursued the War Party. They engaged the rear guard, losing the battle and nine more men., Widow Corse and her daughter Elizabeth were taken captive, but Ebenezer aged 12, and James aged 10, managed to hide and escape. The mother was killed on the trek to Canada. Elizabeth, her daughter, aged 8, survived. She never returned to her home. She grew up, married and had children in Canada.
