General Notes (Husband)

---

One of the Nazeing Puritans, who followed Rev. John Eliot and relatives from the border of Hertfordshire and Essex.

William Wyman Fiske, Joan (___) (Wylley) PIlston of Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire, NEHGR, Vol l 161, Oct 2007, 278-281.

Cites Spencer Miller, "The Millers of Bishops Stortford, co Herts, England: ancestors of Elizabeth (Miller) Heath, Agnes or Ann Miller,,, New York Genealogical and Biographical REcord 70 (1939); 139-50, 242-52, 345,-52, etc.

Thomas Miller, 1609-80 of Rowley, Massachusetts and Middletown.

Thomas Miller of Rowley, Massachusetts, and Middletown, Connecticut, has been identified as the son of John and Mary (Pilston) MIller who were married 21 November 1585 at Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire. It has also been suggested that Mary was the daughter of William and Agnes (Eliot) Pilston. Neither of these identifications is correct.

First, as pointed out by Leigh Hanscom in his 1999 Miller genealogy, Thomas Mikller, son of John MIller, baptized at Bishops Stortford 7 Nov 1609, was buried there 23 Apr 1614. This Thomas was the youngest recorded child of John and Mary (Pilston) MIller. I tis unlikely they had another son Thomas born after the 1614 burial of their son of that name, since Mary was by then probably past childbearing age.

Second, Mary (Pilston) Miller was the daugtehr of William Pilston and his second wife, Joan (___ )(Wylley) Pilston, rather than his first wife, Agnes (ELiot) Pilston. A forthcoming study in TAG of the Wylley and Pilston families, with New England connections, whill show this relationship, based on the chronology of the children of William Pilston by his two wives and the chronology of the children of John WYlley by his two wives.

To begin with, the will of Joan (Wyllie) PIlston identifies Mary as her daughter.

Joan's first husband was John Wylley of Bishops Stortford, grocer. The Cisely Wylley mentioned in Joan Pylston's will was her granddaughter, the child of Richard Wyllie, grocer of London.
