  • Name Basil TERRY 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Est 1620 
    • Although I haven't found his baptism, I am guessing that Basil was the son of Thomas and Maria, named after her father. I do know that Thomas had a son Basil as he mentions him in his will.
    Gender Male 
    Bequest 1653 
    In the will of his father 
    Will 7 Dec 1703 
    Written 
    Buried 28 Jun 1704  St. Mary’s Church, Brabourne, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location  [1] 
    • There were burials of Basil TERRYs in Brabourne in 1688/9, 1704 and 1713.

      I am guessing that this is the one referred to as 'senior' and his son one referred to as 'junior' but who was the one of Postling? And 'senior' was buried after 'junior'; would the term still have been used to distinguish him from his son after the latter's death, or was it to distinguish him from another still living - possibly the Postling one?
      (there are no Terry (Turrie, etc.) bapt, marriages or burials recorded in Postling, judging by the KFHS transcripts)
      Was the Postling Basil the one who was of Minster in Sheppey when he married aged 20 in 1684 (i15224)? Doesn't seem very likely, esp as a Thomas Terry bonded who was also shown as of Minster. (Postling is near Waltham and Brabourne, not near Sheppey)  

      I think it probable that the name Basil was introduced to the TERRY family by the marriage of Maria BECON to Thomas TERRY, so the Basils are most likely descendants of theirs, or at least close relations. A child was often named after a godparent, and godparents were (and are) often relations - so the name could easily have spread to other TERRYs not descended from Thomas and Maria.

      Tyler's notebook as an entry for 17(?) Sept 1664 TERRY, Bassell & Elizh PAINE - was this Elizabeth's madien name? or a mistake by Tyler? - in 2 other notebooks he records 1 Sep 1664 Bazill Terry & Elizh Austen - or was this from the marriage licence (it is not easy to see from the images on Ancestry just where they are from)
