Note Disputing John Courts I’s Ancestry:
A check of Otley Parish records indicates that the John Courts born
in Otley Parish in 1614 probably did not come to America. The
information below is from a person in England who does lookups
for Otley Parish. If you have concrete evidence otherwise, please let
me know.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The only John Coates, son of Francis Coates I can find in the
transcripts is for 1614. "Bapt. 16 Oct 1614 - John Coate, s. of
Francis Coate, Caley". Caley Hall is/was a big house near Pool, one
of the outlying villages of the Otley Parish. I find no other
references to Francis.
However, like you, I believe that John married Margaret Robinson,
daughter of Anthony Robinson & Mary Saxton at Otley on 7 Apr
1645. (There is no further information listed in the transcript about
the marriage.) Margaret's baptism records: "Bapt. 1 Oct 1620 -
Margaret Robinson, d. of Anthony Robinson".
From here the record appears to conflict with your information, in
that John & Margaret appear to have a son called Michael who
was baptised in 1646 (27 Sep), but was buried in 1648 (30 Jun).
And there are possibly 4 other children born between 1655 and
1664.
I also appear to have burial records for John (28 Aug 1679) and
Margaret (3 Mar 1693/4) - both pointing them to be residents of
Pool - this is, though, only my interpretation of all the data taken
from the Otley PRs. (If you can provide me with information that
can refute this I would be very happy to change my
interpretation.)
I'm afraid that I cannot confirm information about Mary Saxton -
beyond the marriage date. The PRs do not record a baptism or
parentage for Mary - though I estimate she was born sometime
between 1579-1599. The date of death you passed on is shown in
the PR as the burial date of Lawrence Saxton (her supposed father.)
- I cannot find a burial
date recorded for Mary.
With respect to Lawrence Saxton, I can find only 4 childrens'
baptisms/burials registered in the Otley PR between 1601-1609
(John - 1601, Elizabeth - 1604, Jane - bur. 1608, Susanna - 1609) -
I can find no marriage recorded for him, but suspect that his wife's
name was Jane as "Jane Saxton, widow of Bramhope - bur. 18 Dec
1660".
All the information above has been taken from the Transcripts of
the Otley Parish Registers 1562-1753. To support/refute my
interpretation you would need to look back into family
documentation such as letters, probate/wills, land records, bills of
sale, etc. There are very few "official" records that were taken at this
time, but much of the records that remain would be found County
Records Offices in the UK.
