*********************************************************************************
Notes from Thom Bailey:
The origin in England of Ansolme Bayly is not shown in any of the records as yet located all that can be found
is evidence he sailed from Bristol in Gloucestershire in western England to Virginia probably in 1661. "Bristol to America".
He came as an indentured to a John Driver who presumably paid his passage. No record of a head right claim has been found.
From the data available a case can be made that Ansolme was from Gloucestershire not Necessarily Bristol.
Examination of records in England for the 1500's and 1600's finds the name Anselm Bayly and variations widely present
in Gloucestershire but seemingly absent elsewhere in England. A number of Anselm Bayleys in the Gloucestershire record
have been assembled into a pedigree but the pedigree appears to incomplete to identify if Ansolme or his family is present.
Further work is needed on this pedigree and preparation of pedigrees for other Bayly families in Gloucestershire in the
1500's and 1600's to try to identify Ansolme and his parents. There are of course other Baylys who came to Virginia
from Gloucestershire in the record.
The second line of evidence for a Gloucestershire origin is the name Driver. The Driver family were landholders
in Gloucestershire, not titled but freemen, of some position. The Drivers were related to at least one Bayly family.
In this Bayly family, same pedigree as the one mentioned previously, the name Anselm appears. On or before
26 October 1662 or possibly even before 1657 a Giles Driver immigrated to Virginia to Isle of Wight County and took
up farming. Giles was a nephew of a John Driver of Gloucestershire and it seems likely the John Driver that
Ansolme was indentured to. Not surprisingly in 1682 after Ansolme would have served out his indenture,
admittedly long after, he bought land in Isle of Wight suggesting he might have been living there all along. A likely
scenario has Ansolme working on Giles Driver's farm(s) in Isle of Wight from 1661 until his indenture expired in 1666.
The Driver connection added to the Anselm Bayly name in Gloucestershire makes a strong case for Ansolme Bayly coming
from Gloucestershire.
Interestingly in 1689 another Anselm Bayly appears in Virginia this time in New Kent County. His name appears in a
head right to a Henry Waring. As far as known these are the only two Anselm Baylys who immigrated to Virginia in the
1600's and may be more correctly to America in the 1600's. This Anselm's origin and his descendants are both unknown
but the name suggests a Gloucestershire origin.
In looking at the Gloucestershire record one will have to look for two Anselm Baylys who immigrated, one in 1661
and another in 1689. Conceivably these two Anselms could have been related in Gloucestershire.
Notes for ELIZABETH ?:
ELIZABETH_?_ In most early records Elizabeth is listed as WARREN, but I have do not have any proof of this.
It has never been proven as of Jan 2003 (Donna Beers). She may of come from England, like Ansolme.
Elizabeth first married Ansolme Baley, who was a footman in the Surry County Militia. Seven children of this marriage.
Second marriage to James Boyce. Two daughters from this marriage, Mary and Sarah Boyce. Mary Boyce b. abt 1690,
married bef Oct 1712, Northampton Co, NC to her stepbrother Samuel Tarver.
Samuel Tarver is said to have been killed by Nottoway Indians. It is Samuel and Mary Traver's seven sons to whom many
Tarver researchers trace their roots.
Children of Samuel & Mary TRAVER; 1.Andrew, 2. Thomas, 3. Samuel, 4. James, 5. Jacob, 6. Benjamin,
7. John (may have Daus also)
Elizabeth \?\ Bailey Boyce, had married third-Thomas Traver about 1711.

NOTES
Thomas TARVER is said to have m. (1) before coming to America; her name is not known. He married (2) a widow, Elizabeth (?)
Bailey Boyce, proven by his will 1711. Boddie-SVFII:24. His son, Samuel, married one of Elizabeth (?)'s daughters of her
marriage to James Boyce.
'The TARVER Families' from "Tarver Family Papers' in the Georgia State Archives, Dept. of Arch. & History, indicates
Thomas TARVER is thought to have come from Wales or England to Surry Co. Va, arriving in America before 1687.
He is on the list of 1688 tithables in Boddie colonial Surry - an adult. Thomas NICHOLSON is tithed with Thomas TARVER on
10 June 1694 in Surry Co. He was again tithed alone in 1698. In 1702, he is tithed with his son, Samuel TARVER,
in Southwark Pa., Surry Co.
Thomas Tarver is claimed by many researchers to be the immigrant ancestor of all TARVER lines, arriving in Surry Co.,
VA in 1687 from Wales. This long tradition possibly is inaccurate. Cavaliers and Pioneers does not indicate the name TARVER
in Virginia prior to 1665, although a Tarver may still have been in Virginia.
One William TARVER recd a grant of 100 acres from Gov. Will Stone in 1651. William TARVER's wife arrived St Mary's Pa.
abt 7 years after William. I have found no further records for these Maryland TARVER'S. It is possible that the Maryland
Tarver's are of the same family, but the connection is not proven. More research is warranted.

***********************************
Notes for JANE BAILEY:
4. Jane Bailey (Ansolme1) was born about 1680 in Isle of Wight or Surry Co., VA and died in late 1713 or early in 1714
in Surry Co., VA. She married first William Warren possibly between 1696 and 1701 in Surry Co., VA. William was born
in 1699 and died between June 1701 and 1702 in Surry Co. He was the son of Thomas Warren and Jane __?__, widow of John King.
Possibly Jane King's maiden name was Allen. Jane (Bailey) Warren married second John Lather between 1703 and 1709.
John was born about 1666 and died in early 1709.
Children of Jane Bailey and William Warren:
None proven.
Children of Jane Bailey and John Lather:
None proven
John Lather had to have been married prior to marrying Jane (Bailey) Warren. The woman may have been Hannah Thompson.
John was tithed on their plantation from 1682 thru 1686. Samuel Thompson of that plantation was one of his Will executors.
He named his daughter Hannah.
He brought three step-children to marriage with Jane Bailey:
i. John Lather could have been born bef. 1693. Married Bet. July 4 and July 18,
1716 Jane (Thomas) Collier daughter of William Thomas and Elizabeth
Bramley and widow of John Collier who died early in 1716. John Lather died
Abt. 1727. John and Jane had one child Martha born bef. 1720 who married
___?___ Andrews. Martha Andrews had at least two daughters, Rebecah and
Priscilla both born before 1741. Maybe same Andrews family as David
Andrews, Jr. who administered Jane (Bailey, Warren) Lather's estate in 1715.
ii. Henry Lather could have been born bef 1693. Not traced, nothing is known of
him. May have gone to Brunswick Co., VA and eventually died in NC.
iii. Hannah Lather was probably born Abt. 1693 and died bef. 1761. Referred to
as Hannah Every in her father's 1709 Will, she most likely married John
Avories born Bef. 1677 and died 1761 or 1762. They had 8 children, 6 girls
and 2 boys.
Footnotes:
B.C. Holtzclaw believed that William Warren and Jane Bailey had two children, William Warren gifted in Robert Bailey's
1712 Will and Ann Warren gifted in Thomas Tarver's 1711 Will. There is no evidence for this in these Wills or elsewhere.
It seems more likely this is William Warren son of Thomas Warren Jr.'s and Ann Warren is the wife of Robert Warren.
Robert Warren was born about 1667 and died 1721, he was the son of Thomas Warren and Jane __?__ (widow of Jane King)
and brother of Jane's husband, William.
The William Warren in Robert Baileys Will written Oct 1712 that he calls "cozen" (aka nephew) is probably William Warren
[b. 1688 and d. aft 1751] who married Jane Davis. This William was son of Thomas Warren, Jr. and Elizabeth __?__.
Thomas Jr.was brother of Jane's husband William making him a nephew to Robert Bailey.
The Surry Tithes contain a Henry Lather possibly born about 1672 based on appearance in Tithes in 1688. This might be
John's brother. Too old to be his son Henry and too late to be his father.
********************************************
Notes for Jane Bailey
Info from Thomas Bailey, thbailey@compuserve.com.
In the 1709 Will of John Lather he identifies his wife as Jane, no maiden name, and his children as John, Henry, and
Hannah Every(Avery). John Lather/Laughter or Lawter was born before 1676 and died between January 26 and March 7, 1702.
His father was probably Henry Lawter who died before 1676 June 13 in James City County. A Hew Lowther's Inventory is
recorded in Surry also in 1676. I don't know if they could be one and the same. John's mother's first name could have
been Hannah as he named his daughter Hannah.
A witness to the 1709 Will of John Lather was William Warren. A William Warren appears as a beneficiary and is called
Cozen in Robert Bayly's Will 1712.
Jane Bayly Lather died in late 1713 or early 1714 apparently a widow having not remarried. Her estate was inventoried
in February 1714. A David Andrews, Jr administered the estate and thought by some, because of this, to be her husband.
I think not. Jane was identified as Jane Lather in the 1714 Inventory not as Jane Andrews. David died between 1714
and 1716 as there is an Inventory for his estate dated 1716.
*******************************************
Notes for JOHN LAUGHTER/LATHER:
Will prepared January and probated March 1709.
See Marriage Note in Jane Bayly. The name Laughter takes the form of Lather, Lother, Lawter, Lowther, and Laughter,
according to Judith Shoulars Hetherington (HOGE777@aol.com) and Lawter website (www.world-wide.net.com/lawter).
I assume is was pronounced "LAW TUR". The Wills in Surry use the name Lather spelling so that is the spelling I have
adopted. The only record, other than Robert Bayly's Will, that I could find of the name John Laughter is the 1704/5
Rent Roll of Virginia.
Marriage Notes for JANE BAILEY and JOHN LAUGHTER/LATHER:
place most likely Surry Robert Bayly's Jane's and John Lather's
Will in Surry
John Lather Will of 1709 identifies his wife as Jane and his children as John, Henry, and Hannah Avery in that order.
Samuel Thompson and William Thomas were appointed overseers. This William Thomas was probably father of Jane Thomas
who would later marry son John. Birthdate of Hannah assumes if married to an Avery in 1709 she was at least 16 years
of age and born in 1693 or earlier.

vi. WILLIAM BAILEY, b. Abt. 1685, VA.
Notes for WILLIAM BAILEY:
The only record of William is in the Will of his father Ansolme Bailey 1688 Surry Co., VA, He gifted son William three
thousand pounds of tobacco when he reaches age sixteen years.
The next Bailey Will is that of William's brother, Robert. Written October 1712, Surry Co., VA. In his Will are the
names of two of his four brothers, Anselm and Walter. He does not mention John and William. Brother John may not have
been gifted because he was dying. He prepared his own Will in November of 1712 and died before May 28, 1713. John's Will
mentions none of his brothers though two, Anselm and Walter, and may be three, Robert, were still alive.
Examining the Surry Tithes over the period 1668 thru 1700 the name of Ansolme and his sons, Anselm Walter, John, and
Robert can be found in a number of years. William's name is only in the 1702 Southwark Parish tiltable, with his
brother Robert.
His brothers all stayed in the area of Surry and Isle of Wight and left records but of William there is no more trace.
What I suspect happened is that William died abt 1702.(note per Thom Bailey Dec 2000)
