Biography

From https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Person:John_Thayer_%284%29

The original baptism records published early in the 20th century where found to be in error. In 1998 Clifford L Stott republished the baptism records in The American Genealogist Vol 72 p 81-90 and the genealogy of this family was summarized on pages 209-219. Again in 2004 The New England Historic Genealogical Society published the "The Ancestry of Eva Belle Kempton 1878-1908" reflecting the current state of research. In both of these works we find indeed that John Thayer who married 3 August 1589 in JOAN LAWRENCE was the John Thayer baptized 6 May 1561

Children:

1. John, baptized at Thornbury 26 December 1591
2. Alice, born say 1592, named in her father's will

4. perhaps Mary, baptized at Thornbury 1 March 1595
5. Agnes, born say 1597, named in her father's will

his death date read 1558, so I changed it to 1658 because that's closer to the about 1600 date.
