Claggett?

A mystery about Olivia Claggett Powell's name:  What is the relationship to the Claggett family?  I have not been able to find Claggett ties to the Powells, but having recently found that the John Harding and Dorcas Davis were from Maryland, it seems likely that the Claggett relationship is in their family.  Perhaps the unknown wife of Garah Harding, John's mother, was a Claggett.
