Kate Gordon is the wife to Scott and a civilian traveling with the 2nd Massachusetts Militia Regiment.
Kate, Scott, Anne and Sam went on a weekend trip to Lake Huntington, and while fishing with Sam, Scott caught a fish but as soon as he pulled the hook out it swam away.
The morning of the exodus from Boston, Aunt Kate is helping her husband, Uncle Scott, try to start an old station wagon . Captain Weaver tells him they only have ten minutes before they have to move out. Their niece, Anne Glass, then approaches carrying a box of medical supplies, asking if she should load them in backpacks or his car. Scott says "The car", but Kate is afraid he won't get it started and leans out the window and tells her, "Backpacks!". Miraculously the engine sputters to life and they load the car just in time to move out with Captain Weaver and the 2nd Massachusetts unit.
