John Baley, presumably the above John, son of Stephen, made his will in 1729, probated 1736, mentions only one son, James. But at probate, Stephen Bailey, eldest son, was present and gave his consent to the proof thereof. This John was known as, John the elder, therefore we may assume he also had a son,John, but did not mention him in his will. This son,John Jr died before his father.

Wife's name might have been Elizabeth, last name of WALKER is UNPROVEN (no documentation (birth record) to prove first or last name) Their were several John Bailey's in Virginia at that time. John's will does not list a wife, so her death would have been before June 11 1729 which was the date of her husbands will.
The information in this BIO comes from a book released in 2014 by a gentleman who spent 5 yrs. researching the families of Westmoreland Co. Va. and found a lot of miss information written in other books in the past, and has found as much actual documented info as possible, and a lot of his info disputes past information.
