Mayo, Elizabeth

Notes:

BIRTH: No birth/chr rec found. Elizabeth's existence is suggested by the fact that Joseph Howes was a party to the settlement of estate of Rev. John Mayo of Yarmouth, 15 Jun 1676. He was also coadministrator of the estate with John Mayo, son of Rev. John (Plymouth Colony Probate, 3:1:175[FHL #567794]). The will of Joseph Howes of Yarmouth, 17 Jan 1694/5, proved 7 Feb 1694/5 mentions a wife Elizabeth. The will also makes John Mayo overseer (Barnstable Co. Probate, 1:108-109 [FHL #904598]). Although it is not proved, the evidence strongly suggests that Elizabeth, wife of Joseph Howes, is a dau of Rev. John Mayo. Date and place of birth are approximations.
MAR: See above discussion.
DEATH: Robert M. Sherman and Ruth Wilder Sherman, comps, VITAL RECORDS OF YARMOUTH, 2 vols. (Warwick, RI, 1975), 1:130 (FHL #974.492/Y1 V2s). Also see the will of Elizabeth Howes of Yarmouth, 7 Feb 1694/5, proved 1 Apr 1701, inv 26 Mar 1701, Barnstable Co. Probate, 2:121-22 (FHL #904598).

John Mayo," NEHGR, 103(1949):41-42 (FHL #974 B2ne).

Moreover, William Lumpkin's dau Tamasin married Samuel, son of Rev. John Mayo.
