Hi John, Your question is at the heart of researching Deacon William of Woburn’s origins. My research notes for [ Davis-96356|Elizabeth (Davis) Locke (1588-1631) ] are based on investigations in the London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) and other sources, now digital and searchable on Ancestry. Deacon William came to America in 1635 in the care of Nicholas Davis. We know that Deacon William’s parents were William Lock(e) mariner of Wappingwall and Elizabeth Salter, a widow when she married the Mariner in 1622. But she died in 1631 and her son William was an orphan when he sailed to America. From Wapping marriage records (held in the LMA) we find that Henry Salter married Eliz Davis on 27 Nov 1615. Researching Elizabeth Davis’s christening finds a record in Nettleton parish, in Wiltshire, where a record of her brother’s christening is also found. Her brother was Nicholas Davis. The ages of all the passengers on board the good ship Planter in 1635 were recorded in their Oath, and Nicholas Davis’s 40 years matches his birth date in his Christening record… I hope this provides the detail you were looking for. Regards, -Clayton
