Information from John Kerley in England ---
"will of john kerley 1581 donhead st mary wiltshire. mentions 2 sons. john &
edmond. it seems that this edmond is the 1 that sailed with william in 1638. is he a
cousin ? i think there is a family tie with william of ashmore as he had land in donhead.
the more kerley's we find it seems to make work more frustrating but it should get
easier. this is the only edmond kerley found in all of my research so it has to be the
1."
Edmond is noted in the Passenger List of the "Confidence" as being 22, thus born
in 1616.
Age of William Kerly of the Confidence as recorded in "Ages From Court Records -
1636-1700, Vol. I, Essex, Middlesex, and Suffolk Counties, Massachusetts" by Melinde
Lutz Sanborn is shown as:
Kerly, William ae 45 1666 MCC folio 40
Kerly, William ae 46 1667 MCC folio 44
which gives his date of birth as 1621
Was William also a son of John's and omitted because William was at that time in
America?
