• Notes

  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. The Hales Newsletter, Summer 2004 Vol. 8 No. 2 [See much more lengthy citation with father Jacob Hales]: "Our Hales family appeared in East Malling on January 10th, 1692. That was the day that Jacob Hales married Elizabeth Penny... Jacob was not in the parish overseer's accounts for 1700, 1715 or 1728, yet we know the couple had money, for Elizabeth received an inheritance of £40 when she married. Jacob may have been a tradesman. Two of Jacob's sons returned to Boxley: John and Jacob. It may be that they returned to the Hales home that was left when the property was purchased in Yalding in the 1500s, or perhaps some relatives were still living at Boxley or there was some Hales property there. John Hales of Boxley, son of Jacob of Yalding, would have been 30 when he married Mary Foster at Frinsted in 1724. Based on the headstone inscription at Boxley, Mary was born in 1700 and would have been 24. While it is stated that this Mary Foster was "of Frinsted," I have not been able to discover a Foster family there. However, about three and a half miles to the east of Frinsted lies the parish of Lynsted. In the records of Lynsted there is a Foster family which lists the death of Mary, daughter of William Foster of Frinsted in 1699. Other members of this family are also referred to as being "of Frinsted." The next year this family named another daughter Mary when she was christened in 1700. I believe this is the Mary Foster that married John Hales. While the parish churches of Lynsted and Frinsted are only three and a half miles apart, the actual farms where they lived might be somewhere in-between and they may have attended both the Lynsted and Frinsted parish churches. Most likely John Hales of Boxley had a reason to be in the Frinsted area. It may have been because he had an ancestor or other relative there to visit. The reason is yet to be found. Jacob Hales of Boxley, son of Jacob of Yalding, followed his brother John to Boxley and married ten years later. Neither of these two sons named a son Jacob (or James - the Latinized form of Jacob), and both called their firstborn girl Elizabeth. This probably indicates something of their relationship to their father. The oldest daughter is named after their mother, but the oldest son is not named after their father." CHRISTENING: 1.
