NOTES: AYERS BIBLE RECORDS -- The following entries are found in an old family Bible now in my possession. Comparison with some town records proves that it belonged to John AYERS of Portsmouth, N. H., whose wife was Mary HUNKING. (Register, Vol. 24, p. 16) The names of the children suggest the probability that John AYERS was a son of Edward and Alice AYERS; her gravestone exists in the Portsmouth “Point of Graves,” and is recorded in Locke’s Portsmouth and Newcastle Cemetery Inscriptions. p. 8, and in New Hampshire Genealogical Record, vol. 1, p. 16. The late Mr. Whitmore’s paper on Capt. John AYRES of Brookfield shows reason to suppose the line to have sprung from him.Marey AYERS was born July ye 10[?], 1723.
