Notes by professional genealogist Robin Bush of Somerset UK re: Simon Hoyt[1]

"There was not trace of the baptism of Simon Hoyt, his marriage, the baptisms of his children (1614-25) or the baptism of his supposed wife, Deborah Stowers (1593), at the dates stated. Of other Dorchester parishes, the registers of All Saints date only from 1653 and those of St. Peter's also from 1653 and none of the three parishes have any Bishop's Transcripts before 1730/1. I can think of no alternative other than that these are "fake" entries supplied by some individual in the past to satisfy wishful thinking among Hoyt descendants. I suppose that it is just possible that the events took place in a different parish and that whoever abstracted the details recorded the wrong place, but I doubt it."--Scot 15:10, 25 April 2008 (EDT)

Also note that David W. Hoyt, in the 1897 Hoyt Genealogy, p. 291, discusses a first wife for Simon Hoyt but gives her neither a baptismal name nor a surname.--jaques1724 14:47, 9 November 2011 (EST)
