Hi Pat, I have an idea that this may be about the family that you are interested in. (I hope.) From "Refugees of 1776, From Long Island to Connecticut" Thomas I came to Southampton in 1640, with his son Job2. Both were in Lynn, Mass in 1638. The house built by Thomas I in 1648 stood for more than 200 years. Thomas I b. about 1590 d. abt. 1670. He had sons, Francis 2, Daniel2, Joseph2, and Job2. The latter (Job?) married (1) Sarah unknown (2) Hannah, widow of Arthur Howell; d. April 1, 1694. Job's children were: Job3 b. Aug. 25, 1672 m. Susanna Howell; d. Mar. 26, 1755. Benjamin3 b. Aug. 9, 1674 Francis2 born________m. Sarah(probably Wheeler) d.Jan. 20, 1698 Francis sons: Dea. John3 b Jan 6,1665; d.April 29,1724. Ichobad3 married Elizabeth; d. 1782 Source: Howell's "Southampton", also "Sayre Genealogy" The book does go on for pages about the Sayre family. Nothing on previous generations that I noticed. I believe these people were the original immigrants to L.I. If you have particular names, I could try to give you the info on them or I'd recommend trying to find this two volume set in a library. :-) Happy Hunting, Joyce in CA http://www.geocities.com/jarmscoop In a message dated 4/6/2004 12:37:08 PM Pacific Daylight Time, rmspas@epix.net writes: Yes. Thank you. I would like the information on Francis SAYRE. At present all I have on Francis Sayre is that he was born in Bedfordshire, England; married Elizabeth ATKINS about 1591; had a son Thomas Sayre [1597-1669]. Thomas Sayre married in Southampton, LI about 1635; no name of wife. Any information would help on this line of the family. Thank you for your time, Pat Smith in PA rmspas@epix.net

Joyce, Thank you so much for the prompt reply. This is indeed the family line that I am looking into. I really appreciate your time in looking this up for me.
