Disputed Relations / Existence
A previous version of this profile claimed she was wife of emigrant to New England, John Bailey Sr., and that they were married 1612 in Chippenham, Wiltshire, England and that she was buried at Chippenham, Wiltshire, England. But research published in 2002 demonstrated that John Bailey married Anne Bayly in Bromham, Wiltshire and his documented children were baptized there.[1]
That version also claimed she was daughter of William Knight and Jane Langeburne, b. 1587 Chippenham, Wiltshire, England. If she was, a source is needed.
Elder John Bayley was not, in fact, married to Elizabeth or Eleanor Knight, but in truth to Ann Bailey/Bayley, possibly a daughter of William Bailey and Elizabeth Woolfrey, also of Chittoe. John Bayley and Ann Bailey were married in July 1611. She was buried there in August 1659 having "steadfastly refused to join her husband in New England for two decades". It is not proven who either of their parents were.?

The breaking of this link also sheds doubt on her path back to Magna Carta surety barons.
