Mary Tyng

Mary Sears also known as Sayre, was born in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, England around 1618, the daughter of Francis Sayre junior (Leighton Buzzard parish register 1617-1653 is missing). She died 1702 in Dunstable Suffolk MA (date need verification).

She married Edward Ting(e) or Tyng(e) on 8 Jun 1639 in London, England [1] [2]

They emigrated to America at some time fairly soon after they married in Jun 1639, for their daughter Hannah was born in America in Jan 1640.

Edward Tyng came with his brother from England to Boston about 1637 or '38. He married Mary Sears, whose family was earlier known as Sayre, in London, England, on 8 Jun 1639, so he either came back to England to marry or else he emigrated a year or two later than the date indicated..[1]

He resided in Boston Massachusetts where he pursued an active career, holding offices of Justice of the Peace and Judge in courts. He held courts in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. He was Captain and Major General in the military.

About 1677 he moved to Dunstable now called Tyngsborough, a name given in honor of the family. Apparently he decided to retire there to pass his declining years with his son Jonathan.

He died 27 December 1681.
