• Name	Emery, Eleanor or Helena
  Christened	7 Nov 1624	Romsey,Hants,Eng
  Gender	Female
  Died	(inv) 19 Dec 1700	Newbury,Essex,MA
  Notes	CHR: Romsey par reg (FHL #1041215). MAR: No mar rec found. Three documents suggest John Bailey's wife Eleanor is the dau of John Emery. The will of John Emery, which does not identify all his children by name, makes Joseph Bailey overseer in the event that his son John Emery or son-in-law Abram Merrill die before the provisions of the will are carried out. Joseph Bailey is the son of John and Eleanor Bailey. The will of John Bailey, Sr, of Newbury, 28 Oct 1651, proved 13 Apr 1652, calls John Emery, Sr, "brother" (THE PROBATE RECORDS OF ESSEX COUNTY, 3 vols. [Salem, MA, 1916-20], 1:145-46 [FHL #974.45 P2p]). John Bailey, Sr, is the father of John Bailey whose wife was Eleanor. The term brother was sometimes applied to men whose children married. The estate of Isaac Brown of Newbury was administered by his widow, Rebecca, who is the dau of John and Eleanor Bailey. In an agreement concerning the disposal of the estate, 29 Sep 1674, Rebecca desired that her "brother" (brother-in-law) Francis Brown and uncle John Emery be overseers of the agreement (PROBATE RECORDS, 2:398). The suggestion is that John Emery is a brother of Rebecca's mother, Eleanor. Finally, Samuel Sewall wrote in his diary on 21 May 1704: "The aged [James] Ordway comes to see me, complains bitterly of his cousin John Emery's carriage to his wife, which makes her leave him and go to her sister Bayly." ("Diary of Samuel Sewall, 1674-1729," COLLECTIONS OF THE MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL SOCIETY, 5th series, 6[1879]:102 [FHL #1011923]). Hence, James Ordway's wife, Anne Emery, had a sister who married a Bailey. DEATH: No death rec found.
