John Naylor

Birth: 1660 in Neshaminy, Bucks Co, Pennsylvania

Death: 1735 in Southampton, Bucks Co, Pennsylvania

Note: John and Jane's marriage was performed under the auspices of the Middletown MM at the house of James Dilworth.

Will:

" John Naylor, of Southampton, Yeoman. February 24, 1732/3. Proved August 16, 1735.

Son John and his son John. Sons-in-law Benjamin Scott and Arthur Searle, exrs. Grandchildren, Thomas and Benjamin Tomlinson (sons of Joseph and Mary, deceased).

Children of daughter Sarah Evans, by name, Ralph and George Dunn, Thomas Evans and Mary Searle. 4 acres of plantation for Public Burying Ground forever, for use of inhabitants of the neighborhood on north side of Phila. Road. Wit: Richard Studham, Thomas Eastburn."

John Naylor bought land in Bucks in 1683 and married Jane Cutler at the house of James Dilworth, 5th month, 11th day, 1685. It is thought Jane Cutler may have been a sister to Edmund and John Cutler who emigrated from Bolland Yorkshire; their certificate from Settle MM dated 4th month, 3rd day, 1685.

Bucks Will: John Naylor, of Southampton, Yeoman. February 24, 1732/3. Proved August 16, 1735. Son John and his son John. Sons-in-law Benjamin Scott and Arthur Searle... Grandchildren, Thomas and Benjamin Tomlinson (sons of Joseph and Mary, deceased). Children of daughter Sarah Evans, by name, Ralph and George Dunn, Thomas Evans and Mary Searle. (see more in footnotes) -- NOTE: there is no mention of granddaughter Grace Searle in this will. She married John Frost in June 1732, so she must have died in the intervening 8½ months -- between June 6 1732 and February 24, 1733, when the will was written, and obviously had no children. --- NOTE: there is no mention of a bequest directly to Sarah Naylor Searle Dunn Evans, only to her four living children, in this abstract, but Sarah is still alive, as she is referenced in her husband Thomas Evans' 1749 will.

Descendants of John Naylor (~1660-8/1735) and Jane Cutler (~1660s MA-12/11/1727 PA). (Source: The Old Northwest Genealogical Qarterly, Our Family Ancestors, wills)
