    '... the following baptism is recorded in the [Claydon] Parish Register, ... "John Bet, the sonne of John Bet and Mary his wyffe was baptised the 5th daye of May 1627." As the mother of Mary Betts was named Mary, and her brother, John, this record, found in the town that was Samuel Boreman's early home, can hardly be doubted to relate to the family of his wife, the John baptized being her brother.'
