SIXTH GENERATION

71. Elizabeth BOWLBY ^{(6)(7) (8)} was born in 1660 in Mansfield Woodhouse, Nottinghamshire, England.^{(357) (358)(359)} We are not exactly certain of Elizabeth's date of birth. According to the research results of Barry Burley, we calculate her date of birth to be 1662 from marriage source material:

Nottinghamshire Marriage Licences

March 28th 1687.
Joseph Senior of Mansfield, dyer, bachelor, 30 and Elizabeth Boulsby of Mansfield Woodhouse, spinster, 25, at same.

Mansfield Woodhouse Parish Register

Joseph Sinyeard of Mansfield and Elizabeth Bowlsby Married March 31st 1687.

However, Dennis Heathcote sends the following note April 2001:

"Elizabeth of Brian Boulby christened 10/8/1660 at Mansfield Woodhouse"

It seems entirely possible that being 25 at marriage may have been more desirable than being 27 - Elizabeth would not have been the only person in the family to have shaved off a couple of years...

Mike and Ann Boulby have found birth evidence of having been born 1660.

She was married to Joseph SINYEARD on 31 Mar 1687 in Mansfield Woodhouse, Nottinghamshire, England.^{(360) (361)(362)} An Elizabeth "Bowleby" married Joseph Sinyeard in the parish of Mansfield Woodhouse.

Joseph SINYEARD^{(6) (7)(8) (363)} was christened in 1657. ⁽³⁶⁴⁾ He died in 1748. ⁽³⁶⁵⁾ He signed a will on 10 Feb 1748. ⁽³⁶⁶⁾ In May 2001, Dennis Heathcote wrote:

"I have a note Joseph Senior died 1748 - Will of 10/2/1748 prv 29/3/1748 His wife then was Margaret and had two sons Joseph and George."

More research could certainly be done on this lead!
