styled "of Ashill, Somerset"

Thomas Harvey was born in 1580 in Ashill, Somerset, England. His parents were William HARVEY and Thomazine [__?__] He first married Ann Hall 17 Feb 1598 in St Michaels Macclesfield, Cheshire, England. After Ann died, he married Joan COLLIER 22 Jun 1612 in Ashill, Somerset, England. Thomas died in 1647 in Ashill, Somerset, England.

To complete this version of events, Thomas Harvey supposedly married an Agnes Clark 1591 in Ashill, Somerset, England. If our Thomas was really born in 1580 he would have only been 11 years old at the time. The date seems to be too early for Thomas’ father William Harvey (1560 – 1630) to be the grandfather. This Thomas and Agnes had a daughter Agnes Harvey who was born 1594 in Ashill, Somerset, England. She married 2 Mar 1637 in Taunton, Somerset, England to Anthony Slocum. Agnes Harvey died 1689 in Edenton, Albermarell, North Carolina

If Agnes Harvey married 1637 to Anthony Harvey then how were her children born starting 1616?
